Amen Corner is a famous section of the Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia. It is made up of the second shot on the 11th hole, all of the 12th hole, and the tee shot on the 13th hole. This stretch of holes is known for being challenging and pivotal in determining the outcome of the Masters Tournament, which is held at Augusta National every year.
The name "Amen Corner" was coined by author Herbert Warren Wind in a 1958 Sports Illustrated article, and it has since become a well-known term in the world of golf. The name is said to have been inspired by the gospel hymn "Shoutin' in the Amen Corner."
The 11th hole is a tricky par-4 that features a dogleg left and a narrow green protected by a menacing water hazard. The 12th hole is a short but treacherous par-3 with Rae's Creek running in front of the green. And the 13th hole is a challenging par-5 with a creek running down the entire left side of the fairway.
Amen Corner has seen many memorable moments and dramatic finishes in Masters history, making it a beloved and iconic part of the tournament. Golfers must navigate these holes with precision and skill to have a chance at winning the coveted green jacket.
