The Masters is being held this year during the week of April 8 – 14 and the countdown has already begun! As many tour players tune up their games either by taking a few weeks off to practice or playing the Shell Houston Open or Valero Texas Open, golf manufacturers are also making their own preparations for Augusta. Many of golf’s biggest companies have started debuting their limited-edition gear specifically for the Masters Tournament. Check out some of the photos we’ve collected!
With Tiger Woods’ return to the top of the world rankings after winning his third tournament in four starts this year, the anticipation for the Masters couldn’t be greater! With this anticipation, Nike has released a limited edition TW golf shoe that showcases and features the iconic Masters green colorway. The TW golf shoe is a collaboration between Tiger Woods and Nike’s golf footwear team – make sure you take a behind the scenes look at how the shoe was developed!
Similar to Callaway Golf above, Taylormade Golf has also made some great custom staff bags for their tour players to use at Augusta named “The Season Opener.” You can check out the 2013 bags below! What’s interesting is that there is a meaning to all of the logos and details that are designed into the bag – take a look at the video below for an explanation for the 2012 Season Opener bag. Hopefully they’ll have a similar video for 2013 soon!
