Augusta: Beauty in the eye of the beholder

AT every step, the view of Augusta National Golf Club is surely unique, but you would be well advised to remember this: We are not talking Ingrid Bergman here.

Meaning, there is not a universal judgment of utter beauty.

That’s right, sacrilegious as it might sound, you can find professional golfers who are not smitten with Augusta National. Remember Lee Trevino, who was skilful enough to have won Open Championships on iconic links courses and US Opens at rough-infested venues, but rarely was he a contender at the Masters.
