Craig Bestrom of Golf Digest walked around the Augusta National facility yesterday to investigate how much tickets are going for. Two scalpers told Bestrom that the hottest ticket is for Wednesday's practice round and par-3 contest, with an asking price of $700. Think that's bad? Tournament day badges are even worse...
Before you plan your last-minute dash down here in the hopes that you'll be able to buy a reasonably-priced ticket to one of the four rounds of the tournament, consider that the asking price for a badge to Thursday's first round, as of early this morning, starts at $1,200. Weekend badges are going for $2,000 or more, but those are a lot harder to find.
