After the finish in the Butler Cabin they do go outside for a ceremony in front of the crowd.

But isn't that sort of anti-climatic?***

easier tv logistics in the cabin and remember they have to also virtue signal and tell us how to live also.

done that way, maybe for the last 25 years or more. It just doesn't make sense to me!

prefer a more intimate setting for that first interview, and having the previous years Champion slip the Jacket onto the new Champion at the conclusion of that interview in the Butler Cabin is part of that tradition.

As was said elsewhere, they repeat it for the crowd outside later, unless the weather is bad, then they repeat it inside the press area.

I remember The Heritage Tournament trying to copy this to some degree, awarding a wild plaid jacket to their winner. I don't think those are nearly as coveted as those Augusta National green ones.

The green jacket ceremony in the Butler Cabin is entirely for television.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


This is a link to the presentation that the patrons see on the 18th green.

Note that there is significant dead time before the action starts, but you can scroll past that.

When Mr . Butler gifted his cabin to the Augusta National it was a condition of the deed that the jacket ceremony had to take place in there. They have to do that first then the main presentation is on 18 green
