McGladrey Winner Receives Masters Invite

Augusta National Golf Club and Masters Tournament Chairman Billy Payne announced that the winner of The 2013 McGladrey Classic to be held at Sea Island Golf Club November 4-10 will be among the elite players receiving invitations to play in the Masters on April 7-13, 2014. This is the second major announcement enhancing the potential strength of The McGladrey Classic player field. Late last year the PGA TOUR decided to eliminate the fall series and position The McGladrey Classic and other former fall series events as the first tournaments of the 2013-2014 season, allowing players to qualify for FEDEXCUP points. “Every pro wants to be invited to play in the Masters,” said Davis Love III, 20-time PGA TOUR winner and McGladrey Classic host. “We thank Mr. Payne and the Masters’ team for providing our McGladrey Classic champion with the opportunity to play for the green jacket.”
