60% Informative

Augusta National does not allow cell phones on its grounds during the Masters.

The U.S. Open , PGA Championship, Open Championship all of y’all, get the cell phones outside the gates.

Imagine a cell phone-free Pebble Beach , a silent St. Andrews .

The players are at least partially on board.

If you are instinctively cringing and wanting to throw this cat’s phone onto the highway that runs through Oakmont , well, that is the proper reaction. Make the right call, majors. Join your azalea-and-pimento-laden brethren. Get rid of cell phones and let people reconnect with the game, each other and themselves. It’s the right thing to do, and we’ll be sure to thank you once we get back to our phones..
