Augusta National was built on grounds that were once a slave plantation and was the property of a slave owner. And according to a 2019 New Yorker piece about the course, it’s believed that enslaved Blacks were housed on the property.

And be honest. When you hear anyone say the Masters, you think of slave masters in the South. There’s nothing else, nothing special. You don’t think of someone mastering the game of golf. When has anyone mastered golf?

It's been in the cancel culture's crosshairs for over a decade now. The Masters gives zero fricks.

Remember when the corporate advertisers threatened Augusta National with no ad revenue during the Masters and CBS showed the tournament ad free? That's because they give zero fricks.

Not true. I did not think of "Masters" as a slave master until the guilty conscience of the New Yorker writers made up this bull shite.

If someone wants to start a GoFundMe to send all of these agitators somewhere else, I will gladly contribute.

In the South, a slave more than likely touched a piece of land where something else now stands.

Just shut up and piss off already.

Yeah, basically when every straight white man in the country who lives outside of NY, SF, and Seattle hear "The Masters" they think of golf.

The Masters has a very long history of "We don't give a shite what you think." They don't need the money. They can hire private security to shoot you.

Not sure what your point is but this isn’t really true.

So now they are coming after every piece of land a slave may have lived on? The reigning champ is black. Condaleeza Rice is a member. The tournament is named for the level of skill on display as it is widely regarded as the most prestigious of all the major tournaments

This is all just because it’s named the masters

No, it’s 2020 and the term doesn’t make anybody, except trolls, think of slave masters.

However, I do think of Golf, master bedroom, The Last Dragon (Leroy)...but not slaves.

I guess I am thinking that the name of the tournament is not controlled by the private club itself.... yes...I am probably wrong.

EDIT.... I was politely told I am wrong... and I am very happy about it.
