Great news, golf fans:

The azaleas are in bloom, the greens have been cut to perfection and the best golfers in the world are headed to Augusta National Golf Club this week for the 83rd edition of the Masters.

You won't want to miss any of the action, and one of the best ways to stay updated is through our new newsletter - The Road to Augusta - that you can have sent to your inbox each morning during the tournament, and then weekly throughout the rest of the year.

The Road to Augusta will feature golf coverage from the staff of The Augusta Chronicle as well as a number of other top national golf sources at GateHouse Media properties. Don't miss great insight from David Westin, John Boyette and a host of others as we prepare for what's certain to be another thrilling event.

Here's a link to Monday's newsletter, which discussed Augusta National's Mount Rushmore, explained how Sergio Garcia used an Augusta moment to name his daughter, and offered a dynamic photo gallery of Tiger Woods' appearances at the Masters through the ages.

Also, the newsletter will dig deep into the tournament's rich history, offer context, and shed light on specific course stats from writers who have covered this storied event for decades.

The newsletter is free and will be sent each morning if you check the mark for The Road to Augusta on this page.
