Masters of grabbing attention
Scarcity is a significant driver of value for golf’s majors: long-standing rituals formed and appointments-to-view set in stone for the avid golf fan.
But the Masters has a unique and unparalleled ability to connect the casual fan too – the spectacular Augusta National Golf Club a consistent actor in this brilliant production.
Beyond the draw of the enviable flora, expect strong viewing figures as fans flock to see a returning champion seeking to repeat his 2023 efforts alongside his LIV peers.
The Masters should also be congratulated on their fan-first commitment. They have flexed their unique eligibility criteria, enabling Joaquin Niemann to qualify. It would have been a crime for him to miss out this week because of his OWGR standing; our model ranks him 12th in the world, well above his official rank of 93.
As for the elusive jacket, I think Lowry would look great in green!
