It was all good apart from the speeding fine through a one-street town in GA but that's another story.

Thanks for that and sounds like a good one! We've been to Tampa so a nice option there and done a vbit of driving around FL so know the distances.

Are there any other tips you've got for the Masters? we've read up quite a bit and watched a few spectator videos for advice but always good to hear more. In particular accommodation options for the day itself: We're swinging towards a cheap-ish hotel the Sun/Mon night within Walking distance to save the long drive and allow a few beers during/after, but also open to alternates.
