Putting #10 at Augusta into Perspective

[GolfSpy Barbajo]

How much of an elevation change is there on the 10th hole at Augusta?

 

 

Mercy! TV doesn't do it justice....

Definitely never thought of it like that.

So with a good putter from the tee box, i am betting on rolling the green from the tee box.

Only if the let McCord in to "Bikini Wax" the fairways.

Wow, you really wouldn't think it is anything close to that from just watching the coverage.

I've always heard thats the biggest surprise from pros that play there the first time. They always say the election changes are far more extreme from what they were expecting from watching it on tv.

I wish TV could do a better job of that. Not sure how, but watching a putt from the normal tv angle just doesn't do the slope justice. You see the ball turn severely, but from the camera angle, the green looks mostly flat.

I've told people for years... You just don't understand the elevation changes that are at Augusta because they don't appear to be that severe on TV. If you've never been there and walked the course , it's hard to imagine it. The course is very rolling.
