Masters tickets? Getting into Augusta National will cost you (and it's not allowed)
There are just hours until the start of one of the most popular sporting events on the planet begins as the first shots will be fired at the 2025 Masters. Playing in the Masters is one of the biggest honors in golf, but simply being able to attend it as a spectator is an ultimate bucket list item for sports fans.
Can you still get in?
Technically, secondary tickets are not allowed. The tournament only sells tickets through its lottery system. Applications closed months ago, and tickets have already been awarded.
With the action starting soon, here's what to know about trying to get to the 2025 Masters:
Can you still buy 2025 Masters tickets?
Through the Masters, no. Augusta National is the only authorized source for Masters tickets and says the resale of any ticket is strictly prohibited. If someone acquires tickets from another source, it could result in exclusion from the tournament.
If you're willing to risk it on the secondary market, be prepared to spend thousands of dollars. For example, according to Gametime, an app/site for last-minute tickets, a four-day pass to the event is $26,212 (including taxes and fees).
How to get Masters tickets
Aside from risking it on the secondary market, the best and cheapest way to get Masters tickets is through its lottery system. The process is done on the Masters website. Interested people fill out an application and are able to request what tickets they want for a certain period of time. After the application window closes, Augusta National does a lottery to award tickets, and applicants are notified if they are selected or not.
How hard is it to get tickets to the Masters? Odds
It's unknown how many applications are done for Masters tickets each year, but bookies.com estimates the odds of getting Masters single-day tickets to be about 0.55 percent. It came to its conclusion using how many tickets are distributed each year and roughly how many people applied using Masters viewership numbers.
How much does it cost to go to the Masters?
Tickets offered for the Masters include the practice round, single round or all-weekend tickets. The prices for the 2025 Masters were:
Practice rounds (Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday): $100
First round (Thursday): $140
Second round (Friday): $140
Third round (Saturday): $140
Final round (Sunday): $140
Four-day tournament badge (Thursday-Sunday): $450
How to enter Masters lottery
The process is simple. When the applications open, users either create an account or update their existing account information on the Masters tickets website. People can select what tickets they are interested in. Once submitted, applicants wait until the Masters notifies people of who was awarded tickets.

Net Income per Diluted Share Guidance for Q2 Fiscal 2026: $0.19 to $0.20. Net Income per Diluted Share Guidance for Full Fiscal Year 2026: $0.95 to $1. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 2 Warning Signs with PD. Release Date: May 29, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. PagerDuty Inc (NYSE:PD) delivered revenue of $120 million, representing 8% growth at the top of their guidance range. Non-GAAP operating margin reached 20%, exceeding their target by 500 basis points. Significant improvement in net-new paid customers, driven by a new commercial digital acquisition strategy. Strengthened strategic partnership with AWS, expanding integration capabilities and serving nearly 6,000 joint customers. Public sector expansion achieved FedRAMP Low authorization, enabling federal agencies to leverage AI and automation capabilities. Dollar-based net retention was 104%, reflecting higher than expected customer downgrades in the enterprise segment and elevated churn in the commercial business. Transitional dynamics in the go-to-market motion led to inconsistent sales and marketing execution. Organizational transitions and go-to-market execution challenges impacted Q1 results. Revenue growth guidance for the full fiscal year 2026 was revised down to a range of 5% to 7%, compared to the previous range of 6% to 7%. Enterprise churn was noted, with downgrades due to company mergers and cautious spending due to macroeconomic uncertainty. Q: Can you discuss the enterprise pressure and the impact of rapid innovation in IT and DevOps, particularly with generative AI? Are enterprises hesitant to commit to multiyear contracts due to market evolution? A: Jennifer Tejada, CEO: The primary issue is execution rather than market hesitancy. We experienced gaps in customer engagement due to significant transformations, such as reassigning territories and onboarding new reps. However, new logo growth, especially from AI companies, indicates strong demand. We are confident that our experienced sales force will drive stronger execution in the latter half of the year. Q: The full-year guidance implies revenue growth exiting the year at 5%. How derisked is this guidance, and what precautions were considered? A: Howard Wilson, CFO: The guidance is prudent, reflecting organizational transitions and go-to-market execution challenges in Q1. We expect improvements in bookings in the latter half of the year as sales reps ramp up, but the guidance accounts for early-year challenges. Q: What adoption trends are you seeing for new modules like PagerDuty Advance and Enterprise Plus? A: Jennifer Tejada, CEO: Adoption is in early stages, with strong interest in our generative AI solutions. Customers appreciate the chat-native experience and our ability to integrate with platforms like Teams and Slack. We are reducing friction by seeding access to new features across pricing packages and enabling easier access to AI products. Q: Can you provide more color on the enterprise churn and downgrades? Was this broad-based, and how did it impact the quarter? A: Jennifer Tejada, CEO: We saw elevated churn in SMBs and downgrades in enterprise due to factors like company mergers. The macro environment remains uncertain, but we are focusing on helping customers realize operational efficiencies. Our quarters are more back-end loaded, and April was particularly challenging. Q: How did non-incident management products perform this quarter, and what trends are you seeing? A: Jennifer Tejada, CEO: AIOps continues to lead growth, with new use cases emerging, such as helping customers manage observability costs. Our AIOps offering is maturing, and customers are using it to prioritize tech debt reduction and manage operational risks.

WWE Money In The Bank 2025 Results As Seth Rollins Wins Men's Ladder Match
Seth Rollins is now a two-time Money in the Bank winner. (Credit: Georgiana Dallas/WWE via Getty ... More Images) WWE Money in the Bank 2025 had one overwhelming favorite in the men's match, and as it turns out, Seth Rollins was the favorite for a reason. En route to WWE's latest pay-per-view, the company assembled one of the most unique MITB fields in recent memory: Andrade, El Grande Americano, LA Knight, Penta, Rollins and Solo Sikoa. In the show's semi-main event, a slew of superstars not even in the match, including Bronson Reed, Jacob Fatu and Bron Breakker, showed up in an attempt to help their stables win the briefcase. Once the dust settled, however, one man was able to leave the Intuit Dome as the winner of the 2025 WWE Money in the Bank match and with that a guaranteed future world title match. WWE went the most obvious route with the 2025 men's Money in the Bank match winner: Seth Rollins. The clear betting favorite and the logical one, too, Rollins left the Intuit Dome with the Money in the Bank briefcase after a chaotic, interference-filled men's MITB match. Just as Naomi's victory was widely expected, so was Rollins, the lone star in the bout who is consistently pushed as a main eventer. Some of the key highlights of the men's ladder match were: While Fatu's betrayal of Sikoa stole the show, that major moment was also, well, obviously coming. WWE had teased for weeks upon weeks that Fatu, one of the company's fastest rising stars, would turn babyface in the near future. As it turns out, WWE finally pulled the trigger at Money in the Bank 2025, and Fatu's interference played a big role in Rollins capitalizing for the win. That could be seen from a mile away, with reports emerging that Rollins would likely win the match and earn a guaranteed world title shot. Looking at the other competitors in the match, Rollins quite clearly had the best shot at becoming world champion over the past year. The only question entering Money in the Bank was: is Rollins winning too obvious? Maybe, maybe not. But even if it was, WWE stuck to its guns and gave Rollins a second briefcase win at Money in the Bank 2025, and don't be surpised if he's world champion sooner rather than later.
