OK, so technically this isn’t Masters week. Technically we are supposed to wait until November for that. But you know what? Screw that. THIS is Masters week. Always has been, always will be, and no damn virus is going to take that from us. So even if there isn’t any live Augusta action to stream at your cubicle right now, we decided to put together our annual Masters drinking game all the same. Sure, it’s based on the Masters of yore and yeah, it’s a little sadder than usual, but if you could use a few beers (lord knows we do), grab something cold and pull up a chair. It’s not like you planned on going outside this week anyway.
