What is the cost of membership at the Augusta National Golf Club?
The saying goes, ‘If you have to ask, you cannot afford it!’ The club has never disclosed how much membership costs, but it is believed to be around $10,000 a year. There is a very small membership base (of around 300 members) and the majority of the revenue is generated by The Masters Tournament, which is held every year in early April. Members are only allowed to play the course between May and October and if a member invites a guest to play at Augusta National, the member must pay for his guest, just a tradition of the club. The membership is by invitation only. When a player wins The Masters, they automatically become a life long member of the club. The members at Augusta National play an essential part in the running of The Masters Championship.
