The start of the 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National was delayed by at least one hour due to adverse weather conditions, including thunderstorms and high winds. The delay affected gate openings and tee times, pushing the commencement of the first round to no earlier than 9am ET (2pm UK). The delay was confirmed by Masters officials and was a response to the expected stormy weather, aiming to ensure the safety of fans, players, and staff. Despite the delay, clear skies were anticipated by the early afternoon, with the tournament officially getting underway at 10:30 a.m. local time. This year's tournament marks the sixth consecutive year that the Masters has faced weather-related delays.
