He said from the eleventh hole you could see all the way to the clubhouse. Apparently all the trees look dead. It's a bit of a shame."Whether or not Hanson's assessment is spot-on, the photograph below clearly shows some thinned-out trees on Magnolia Lane: This writer is still convinced that we will remember the 78th Masters Tournament for the tournament itself, not the condition of the trees on the course.
