All who play rounds one and two on Wed and Thurs get to play Augusta National on Friday - whether they make the cut or not. For those making the cut it is a practice round - for all others it's great experience - as it would be for any amateur golfer male or female, and I think that it's rather insulting to elite amateur women's golf to call it tokenism and liken it to the D,C and P. Those who make the cut play the final (third) round of the ANWA on the Saturday.
And yet there is a player in the Masters field who, in the past, competed in D,C & P.
I’d love to see Tommy win. But his putting really isn’t good enough to win on these greens unless he has the best putting week of his life.
I loved the food but not the cheese sandwich funnily enough... It just tasted like a mediocre cheese with cheap bread. I don't get the hype around it?
As a result, I had a few cups of the lemonade and it was marvelous!
Maybe not...but it is a big step in the right direction and a big thing for the women amateurs - and does raise their profile - albeit perhaps only for those not dismissive of the women's game in general - and such types walk amongst us. I am of course very and unashamedly biased.

R&A, PGA, USGA, all hold corresponding womens events now. The Masters is an outlier. As a major, a title that brings it enormous prestige, it has a responsibility to go the whole way, and not this sop.
Just a little excessive on the hyperbole front there methinks...

I was was trying for measured restraint, and a little understatement. The true earth shattering awesomeness of it is blinding if looked at in its full rapture of the second coming.
Tiger was a Titan, whose golf angered the Olympians, as he was better than they. In 2008 they tried to curtail his US Open by wounding him, but his win, even more impressive than before, so enraged them that they set about destroying his life completely. They took their eye off him after that considering their work complete. But the Titan's golf was so powerful, that the 2019 Masters, a feat so great even Zeus himself knew he could never better, and he was driven to a fury, hurling a thunderbolt at Hawthorne Avenue, breaking our Titan Woods definitively. Even the other Olympians rebuked Zeus for going too far, as gods and mortals alike, shed a collective tear.
