It doesn’t matter that it’s Masters week. When a natural phenomenon happens, you stop what you’re doing to look.
Golfers, caddies and all spectators attending Monday’s practice rounds at Augusta National Golf Club went about their business as usual until the solar eclipse arrived in the sky.
And thanks to the Masters team, everyone had their own Masters-branded glasses to safely view the eclipse in the sky.

The green paper glasses with special lenses and Masters logos on the sides were passed out to view the eclipse in the sky Monday afternoon, and they were on the faces of virtually everyone during the couple of hours it was visible in the sky.
Golfers, of course, want to remain hyper-focused on hitting the perfect shots leading into Thursday’s opening round. But even they couldn’t help stopping what they were doing to experience the eclipse with the gallery.

Others like Team USA Ryder Cup captain from a year ago, Zach Johnson, and Eric Cole were spotted on the fairways of Augusta National Golf Club popping the glasses on to look up midway through their practice rounds.
Everyone from concession workers to broadcast crews to the thousands of fans watching their favorite golfers shared the experience together.
