Hi again

Just some more questions:

- Approximately what time is the tournament over on Sunday all in all. So I mean at what time is it possible to be picked up by car outside. I will bring my phone, so I have to wait to have it extradited like everyone lese who have brough their phone to the tournament.

- Is it possible to bring my own chair(s) or do you have to buy it on Augusta National? Is it allowed to set two chairs different places on the course to reserve a good view?

- At what time do they open the gates on Sunday, I will be there in the second they open

Thanks in advance

They’ll be out of daylight by 7:30 or so. Barring no playoffs, it’ll be done prior to that. As far as bringing a phone, sadly, that’s not happening. You go through metal detectors before they ever scan your badge. They’ll make you turn around and put it back before you ever get there. If you’re planning on having a friend or Uber pick you up, don’t do it right outside the gate. You’ll never find them haha.

Go to the strip mall across the street from the Berkman’s rd entrance. Easier to get in and out of.

Gates likely open at 8?

Thanks for your answers. Maybe I was not clear about the iPhone issue bringing it to the course. I thought it is possible to bring the phone to the GATE, give it to security who will keep it secured until I pick it up after the tournament is over. Or is that option not possible?

I dont think anyone answered if it's possible to bring my own chair(s) to the course or you have to buy them on premises?

Thanks in advance

See below from The Masters website for what you can and cannot bring. Re the question re bringing a phone and then checking it with security, I don't know and I wouldn't even try it.
