Official 2020 Masters Tournament Framed Print Benefiting Southern Pickleball Academy

This stunning framed print is a rare piece of golf history. The 2020 Masters Tournament — held November 12–15 at Augusta National Golf Club — was a once-in-a-lifetime event unlike any Masters before or since. Postponed from its traditional April dates due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it marked the first and only time in the tournament's nearly 90-year history that the Masters was played in the fall.

The official tournament artwork, by celebrated golf artist Lee Wybranski, captures Augusta National shining in vivid autumn foliage — the golds, reds, and oranges of fall reflected in Rae's Creek beneath the iconic stone bridge at Amen Corner. This image served as the cover of the official Masters Journal during the tournament. Where patrons normally see spring azaleas in bloom, this print tells a different, singular story. It is a visual record of a tournament that will never be repeated.

On the course, the history was equally remarkable. Dustin Johnson delivered one of the most dominant Masters performances ever recorded, finishing at –20 to set a new all-time scoring record for the tournament.

 

Professionally framed and ready to hang, this is a conversation piece, a collector's item, and a genuine artifact of one of sport's most extraordinary years.
