Augusta National closed its gates at 10 a.m. ET Monday morning in response to severe weather in the area, putting a stop to practice rounds and shutting out spectators from Day 1 at the Masters.

“We are disappointed that our patrons could not enjoy today’s practice round, however safety must be our first concern,” said Billy Payne, Chairman of Augusta National Golf Club and the Masters Tournament. “We look forward to seeing these patrons next year.”

Patrons who bought tickets for Monday’s practice round will be sent refunds in May, and they will be guaranteed an opportunity to purchase 2015 practice round tickets.

According to Weather.com, more than 1 inch of rain could fall at Augusta National by the end of the day. On the bright side, Monday’s rain should be the only precipitation to fall at the course this week.

GolfWRX is on site this week at the Valero Texas Open.

The event has been around since 1922, making it one of the oldest on the PGA Tour calendar. Over the years, it’s been held at a variety of courses across the Lone Star State, but it’s found its home at TPC San Antonio in recent years. Some of the biggest names in golf have taken home the title here, including Arnold Palmer, Ben Hogan, Lee Trevino, and Ben Crenshaw.

GolfWRX has its usual assortment of general galleries, WITBs and special pull-out albums. As always, we’ll continue to update the links below as more photos come in from TPC San Antonio.
