Masters Leaderboard: Live leaderboard, Schedule, Tee times
No one likes when cell phones interrupt the action of a sports game. Whether it be an unfortunately-timed call that ruins a moment or a fan who won’t stop taking pictures and blocking your view, phones can often be quite annoying at a sporting event.
Thankfully, to curb these bad fan practices, phones are strictly prohibited at the Masters.
According to the Masters, electronic devices such as phones and tablets are prohibited, but electronic and fitness watches are good to go. However, you cannot use those devices for calls, texts, emails, and data recording. Here’s how the Masters breaks down the rules on electronic devices.
Electronic devices (including phones, laptops, tablets and beepers) are strictly prohibited on the grounds at all times. Any device being used to record and/or transmit voice, video or data is strictly prohibited. Cameras are strictly prohibited on Tournament days. Violation of these policies will subject the ticket holder to removal from the grounds and the ticket purchaser to the permanent loss of credentials (tickets).
And there you have it!
