It’s that time of year again! The Masters Tournament is around the corner, and I’m super excited to catch all the action! I know the tournament spans several days, but I’m particularly interested in what time everything begins on Saturday.

Why is Saturday Important?

Saturday is known for the moving day, where players usually make significant pushes on the leaderboard. It’s always thrilling to see how the competition unfolds, and it often sets the stage for an exciting Sunday finish.

Here are a few things I’m hoping to catch:

  • Television Coverage: What time should I tune in?
  • Live Attendance: For those who are planning to be there, what’s the best time to arrive?
  • Viewing Parties: Any suggestions for local spots to watch the game with fellow fans?

If anyone has information on the exact start time for Saturday or any tips for getting the most out of the Masters experience, I would love to hear! Let’s get hyped for this year’s tournament!

I love that idea! What about drinks? Should I stick with beer, or is there a more upscale option?

Why not both? Craft beers and some sparkling wine can cater to everyone’s taste during the tournament. Just keep it light!
