After three years of work the Augusta National Golf Club will officially open with a gala golf party bringing together famous personages of the golf and business world, Friday, Jan. 13, 1933, Augusta, Ga. The 18 hole course, built on a 385 acre nursery tract, is a veritable paradise of semi-tropical foliage. None other than Robert Tyre (Bobby) Jones, King of Golfers, and President of the club was behind every blue print and literally every shovel full of dirt during the construction of the course, collaborating with Dr. Alister MacKenzie, famous Scot Golf architect. Many of the 18 holes are prototypes of famous holes of the St. Andrews and North Berwick courses in Scotland and other courses throughout the world. This course, says President Jones fulfills four fundamental requirements of golf. 1. It requires as much mental effort as it does golfing skill. 2. It gives the average player an excellent chance to do his best, while the expert must bring all his resources into play to keep within par 72. 3. It gives pleasure to the greatest number of golfers. 4. It contains natural hazards and more natural beauty than any course in the world. The Augusta National Golf Club is non-profit making and under the Jones influence will be used for golf and golf only-no social functions being permitted.
