The 2023 Masters is still being played at Augusta and its winner will still be donning a green jacket.

This year, however, there is a certain level of awkwardness in the air around Augusta, with LIV golfers teeing it up with PGA Tour golfers, beginning om Thursday.

The 2023 edition marks the first time members of LIV Golf will tee it up at golf's most prestigious event.

It's the same Augusta golf drama, this time, turned up quite a bit.
