Lessons from The Masters
For all of the nostalgic takeaways from the annual tradition of The Masters, the one that strikes me most year after year is "The Devil is in the Details."
Whether you are a player, a patron, or a viewer of The Masters, you can't help but notice the great care that is put into every single detail. It is a lesson that is applicable to everyone: in order to be the best, you cannot overlook a single detail.
What most viewers will immediately notice is the prestige condition that Augusta National Golf Course appears. Even on high definition televisions, every single blade of grass, every single flower petal, every single pine straw seems to be meticulously cared for and maintained. Beyond the timeless impeccability of the course, the Masters tournament manages every aspect of the tournament with equal care. There are the classic white mechanics jumpers that each caddie wears coupled with a matching green Masters cap. Aquafina or Evian? Not at The Masters where players receive tournament branded water bottles. Did you record an eagle during the week? You'll be sent home with some crystal goblets. Even the television graphics package are used only during and for the Masters telecast.
The Masters is the greatest tournament every year not just because of the tradition and the course (though those help considerably), but also for the care to detail that every single aspect of the tournament is given.
