Augusta National Stays Firm Against Ticket Touts

Augusta National's uncompromising approach to membership has long served as a model for maintaining exclusivity and preventing ticket touting. In 2019, even Jeffrey Epstein's influence couldn't secure admission for Brad Karp, who had recently stepped down from his position at Paul Weiss due to ties with the disgraced financier. The club's rigorous vetting process continues to keep unauthorized resellers at bay, preserving the integrity of the Masters Tournament.
