J.J. Watt fulfilled a dream. He got to play Augusta National Golf Club.
One day after Rory McIlroy's historic green jacket victory at the 2025 Masters, Watt, who was among the many celebs seen hanging out at Augusta during the week, got to take to the course for a round of golf.
How'd it go?
Augusta National Round Update:
- Played from Member tees
- Sunday pins
- Ball-in-hole
- No gimmes, no free drops, etc

Extremely pleased with that result.
What an unbelievable experience at an unbelievable place. Very grateful.#Masters2025— JJ Watt (@JJWatt) April 14, 2025
Watt, who played for the Houston Texans and Arizona Cardinals during his 11-year NFL career, lives in Scottsdale, Arizona, and is good buddies with LIV Golf's Jon Rahm, playing in the same group in the pro-am ahead of the WM Phoenix Open in 2023.
The Monday after Masters is also traditionally set aside for members of the media who are lucky enough to have their name drawn in the lottery.
