Augusta National underwent minor changes following the 2006 Masters Tournament, with two holes -- Nos. 11 and 15 -- receiving updates.

The Masters tees of the aforementioned holes were moved back 5-7 yards. In addition, the mow line on No. 11 was changed 3-5 yards on the golfer's right and pine straw replaced grass under the pine trees on the right side of the fairway.
