The Masters Tournament is well known for awarding the winner with a green suit jacket. In addition, the tournament is the only major held at the same course every year—the Augusta National Golf Course. Any winner of the Masters automatically has a lifetime invitation to play in the tournament again in the future.

Each year there are four major golf tournaments and the Masters, because it is held in April, is typically considered the first of these four major tours. The three remaining major tours include the United States Open, the British Open and the PGA Championship. Legendary golfer, Bobby Jones, helped in the design of the Augusta National Golf Course. Jones is credited with having brought the Masters Tournament into existence.
