Masters Week is Finally Here!
There’s something about the second week of April that just feels different—like spring itself waits for the Masters to bloom. Welcome to the crown jewel of the golf calendar, where azaleas bloom, legends are born, and green jackets are earned—not given.
The 2025 Masters Tournament is officially underway, and Augusta National is already delivering its signature mix of beauty and brutality. This year’s field is stacked, and with the league’s picks locked in, there’s no turning back. For many in the GGG ranks, this tournament is more than just a major—it’s a career-defining moment in the pool, especially for those chasing that Majors Side Bet jackpot.
