Originally scheduled on the eve of Masters week, this year’s Drive, Chip and Putt National Finals has been rescheduled for April 2021.
Announcing the decision Friday, Augusta National Golf Club canceled this year’s event but said that it will invite each national finalist to compete at Augusta National in the same age division for which he or she previously qualified, regardless of their age on that date. The event has been rescheduled for April 4, 2021.
When Augusta National previously announced the postponement, on March 13, there was optimism that they’d be able to host the Masters and the other amateur events (including the Augusta National Women’s Amateur) “at some later date,” once the threat of the coronavirus has passed.
