Masters 2025 food: Full menu and prices at Augusta National
Masters 2025 food: Full menu and prices at Augusta National Show Caption Hide Caption Scottie Scheffler says it's tough to choose his best shot at Augusta Scheffler says he's hit a lot of big shots at Augusta, but one perfectly struck iron in 2022 still stands out. The first round of the 2025 Masters is underway, and as patrons get to walk across the prestigious Augusta National Golf Club to watch the chase for the green jacket, they also get to partake in one of the course's great offerings: the food. For as much as Augusta National is known for its picturesque settings and pristine grass, one of the major attractions is the food and drinks. Not only are they famous for their taste, but what makes them such a hit is their inexpensive prices. In a time where it feels like the prices for everything are going up, the Masters continues to remind us not everything needs to be expensive. Spectators can expect the same thing this year, and the cost of food and drinks remains low. Here's a look at what's on the menu for the 89th Masters Tournament and how much each item costs. Masters concession prices 2025 Prices remain the same as last year on the concessions menu at the 2025 Masters. Staples on the menu include items like the egg salad sandwich and the Georgia peach ice cream sandwich. If someone bought every item on the menu − including all the alcohol − it would cost $77. Here is every item on the Masters menu and how much it costs: Breakfast (served until 10 a.m.) Masters blend fresh brewed coffee: $2.00 $2.00 Chicken biscuit: $3.00 $3.00 Breakfast sandwich: $3.00 $3.00 Blueberry Muffin: $2.00 $2.00 Fresh mixed fruit: $2.50 Sandwiches Egg salad: $1.50 $1.50 Pimento cheese: $1.50 $1.50 Pork BBQ $3.00 $3.00 Savory tomato pie: $3.00 $3.00 Masters club: $3.00 $3.00 Chicken salad on honey wheat: $3.00 $3.00 Ham and cheese on rye: $3.00 $3.00 Classic chicken: $3.00 Beverages Soft drinks: $2.00 $2.00 Bottled water: $2.00 $2.00 Fresh brewed iced team: $2.00 $2.00 Crow's nest (beer): $6.00 $6.00 Domestic beer: $6.00 $6.00 Import beer: $6.00 $6.00 White wine: $6.00 Snacks Apple slices: $1.50 $1.50 Chips (plain or BBQ): $1.50 $1.50 Peanuts: $1.75 $1.75 Southern cheese straws: $2.00 $2.00 Cookies: $1.75 $1.75 Georgia pecan caramel popcorn: $2.00 $2.00 Georgia peach ice cream sandwich: $3.00 Why is Masters food cheap? Aside from the golf and history itself, the food has become a popular reason why people try to go to the Masters. Not only is it cheap, but it tastes amazing. It's an intentional thing done for the tournament. 'We believe that one of the reasons the Masters is popular with patrons of the game is because they can obtain good food and drink at reasonable prices,' former Augusta National chairman Clifford Roberts wrote in his 1976 book, 'The Story of Augusta National Golf Club.'

Predictions, sleeper picks, odds to win 2025 Masters at Augusta National
Predictions, sleeper picks, odds to win 2025 Masters at Augusta National Show Caption Hide Caption Ludvig Aberg leaning on experience and calm to Augusta A year after his Masters debut, Ludvig Aberg says familiarity with Augusta brings confidence and calm as he prepares for another run. PGA TOUR It's Masters week once again, and the first of professional golf's four majors looks primed for another memorable tournament. Defending champion Scottie Scheffler will attempt to join Jack Nicklaus, Nick Faldo and Tiger Woods as the only golfers to win the Masters in back-to-back years. Rory McIlroy, after winning the Players Championship last month, will try to win his first major title in 11 years and complete a career grand slam with his first green jacket. They'll also be tested by Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, Brooks Koepka and other top golfers on the LIV Golf roster competing around the world outside the bigger spotlight of the PGA Tour. Golf's majors are more meaningful than ever with so many of the top golfers scattered on the two major tours in recent years. The action starts with Thursday's first round and wraps up Sunday, but experts are already weighing in with predictions and picks for this year's event. Here's what to know about the 2025 Masters, including the latest BetMGM odds, favorites and sleepers before the best golfers in the world tee off at Augusta National Golf Club: Masters 2025 odds BetMGM odds as of Sunday, April 6 Scottie Scheffler +450 Rory McIlroy +650 Colin Morikawa +1400 Bryson DeChambeau +1600 Jon Rahm +1600 Ludvig Aberg +1800 Xander Schauffele +2000 Justin Thomas +2200 Joaquin Niemann +2800 Patrick Cantlay +2800 Brooks Koepka +3000 TIGER WOODS: Plays April Fool's Day joke about injury comeback at Masters Masters 2025 predictions Mark Giannotto, USA TODAY: Collin Morikawa "Morikawa currently ranks second behind only McIlroy in strokes gained tee-to-green in 2025. It's perhaps gone under the radar because Morikawa is searching for his first win in more than 18 months and fell short again with a chance to win this year's Arnold Palmer Invitational. But he has three top-10 finishes in five starts this season, in addition to winning the PGA Championship and British Open previously. Maybe he's ready to prove his mettle at The Masters." Draftkings Network: Xander Schauffele "Schauffele started this season late due to a rib injury and, after looking rusty in his first two starts, came alive at the Valspar Championship … gaining an eye-popping 11.2 strokes on approach at the Copperhead Course. This number set a career-high for Schauffele … The 31-year-old is notorious for playing his best golf at major championships and Schauffele is a very intriguing early bet at this number." BetMGM: Ludvig Aberg "Aberg came extremely close to ending the Masters debutant winless run last April, ultimately settling for a runner-up finish. Illness plagued Aberg in late January through February, but a win at the Genesis should give hope to those considering backing Aberg at the Masters. That week, Aberg gained 10 strokes tee-to-green, the third-best output of his entire career." The Masters 2025: Sleeper picks Patrick McDonald, CBS Sports: Sepp Straka (+6600) "Straka ranks inside the top 10 in the world in driving accuracy and iron play so far in 2025. This is the combination that led him to a T-16 finish at the Masters last season as he ranked sixth in driving accuracy, fifth in greens in regulation and eighth in strokes gained tee to green. Recent improvements on and around the greens should improve Straka's chances at nabbing a major championship where he has acquitted himself nicely in recent years." Draftkings Network: Russell Henley (+5000) "These are odds are way too long for Henley. The 35-year-old has been one of the best players in the world with four top-10 finishes in just seven starts this season. Henley recently picked up the fifth PGA TOUR win of his career at the Arnold Palmer Invitational last month, which was a Signature Event that featured all of the PGA TOUR's best players. Henley has always been one of the best irons players on the PGA TOUR, but this season, he has been an elite putter as well, which has been the key to him playing the best golf of his career." Oddspedia: Corey Conners (+6600) "There may not be a hotter player on the PGA Tour these days than Canadian Corey Conners, who posted three-straight top-eight finishes (before this weekend)."
