Most people know Augusta because it is the site of the prestigious Masters Tournament, played each spring at the Augusta National Golf Club.
The tourist boom in the early years of the 1900s brought golf to Augusta, and a number of excellent golf courses soon sprang up. The courses attracted many, including a young Atlantan named Bobby Jones, who often came to town to play at what are now the Forest Hills Golf Club and the Augusta Country Club. It opened for members' play in December 1932. There was soon talk of holding a U.S. Open at the course, but Jones and Roberts thought it might be better to hold their own tournament. So was born The Masters - although for years Jones avoided calling it that.
