The Masters Tournament is an invitational golf tournament held annually since 1934 at the Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia. It is played from Thursday through Sunday during the first full week of April. The Masters was conceived by Bobby Jones and is one of the four major golf tournaments, along with the U.S. Open, the British Open (Open Championship), and the PGA Championship. The winner receives a cash prize, a gold medal, a lifetime invitation to the Masters, and invitations to the other three majors for the next five years. Since 1949, winners have also been presented with a distinctive green jacket.
