Augusta National Golf Club is a private golf club in Augusta, Georgia, in the United States, best known as the permanent home of the Masters Tournament, which it has hosted every year since 1934. Bobby Jones and Clifford Roberts founded the club in 1932 on the site of a former nursery and plantation, and the course was designed by Jones with Alister MacKenzie. Unlike most private clubs it operates as a for-profit corporation and keeps its income, holdings and membership list private. It is a winter club that closes each summer, and since 2019 it has co-hosted the Augusta National Women's Amateur. Its chairman since October 2017 is Fred Ridley.
