here at augusta nationals club owners go to a lot of trouble. not much changes in the past 50 years including a certain tree. at least until recently. before there were green jackets -- before the azaleas -- before the masters golf tournament even existed, a pine tree grew in augusta, georgia. they built the golf course around it, letting it rain over the 17th hole. and while would the 65-foot tree was beautiful, it could sure wreck havoc with a round of golf. >> i've hit it a few times. i know that. and it's definitely a thorn in most players' side. >> reporter: in 2011, tiger woods tore his achilles punching a ball from the pine straw at the base of the tree. 1973 masters champ tommy aaron had an even more bizarre encounter during his third to round at the '89 tournament. >> it hit in the top of the tree and pine pollen went everywhere. shheew like a bomb had gone off. >> reporter: the ball stayed in the tree. aaron took the penalty. >> the next day i'm playing, as i'm walking by the tree with my caddie, this ball comes falling out of the tree

up next, we will head down the road to augusta where there's no tiger woods at augusta this year butold named kelly has been making up for that and stealing plenty of hearts. (dad) well, we've been thinking about it and we're just not sure. (agent) i understand. (dad) we've never sold a house before. (agent) i'll walk you guys through every step.

(mom) i'm so excited. >> welcome back to unguard. i'm rachel nichols. we turn our attention to augusta, and i spoke to mike rosenberg who's covering the masters. mike, last year at this time you wrote si's cover story on tiger woods but this year no tiger. he is out with another injury. are we going to see the return of the dominant tiger woods who ruled golf or is that guy for good. >> i look at tiger like the beatles. it was a phenomenon that we will never see again. and the part of oyoko ono is played by 300 wome

in augusta, i'm from the augusta warrior project. in augusta, we focus on 13 counties. the focus is on outcomes. not just doing but outcomes. our must remembers are how many homeless veterans can we get permanently housed? not just housed but permanently housed. with a lower recidivism rate. how do you get veterans into jobs that turn into careers where they are happy and they are comfortable and they can earn a living wage to support their families. we look at education. we don't just look at education as attending school. we look at graduation rates. we look across our community and you have to understand. we're 13 counties. two of them are primarily urban. the other 11 are rural counties. rural counties in georgia and south carolina. so when you talk about a demographic, it is a pretty broad demographic. we have one of the largest army installations in the united states, fort gordon. it has the largest microsoft school believe it or not. outside seattle, washington. so there is a lot of talent, but you to find person who needs the help, number one, and you have to kn

augusta national is the star here.lot of the players that have come here -- this is the only one of the majors that those who follow both of, the only one on the same course year after year. that being said, tiger woods draws huge ratings regardless of who else is playing. you see ratings jump 50% when he is in the field. you won't have the attention unless you get a really compelling story. phil mickelson is way off. he draws a lot of viewers. unless big names like mcelroy goes on the list, we will still see some numbers on the weekend ove i'm sure. >> you talked about ratings, but what about advertisers? tiger is not there. do they feel shortchanged? >> that is the interesting thing about the masters -- it is a much different senior. they have sponsors and they are tournament sponsors and they only show 4 minutes of commercials per hour. it is unlike most of the other tournaments that air in the u.s. , where you have one commercial after another here. ubs, otherbm, sponsors that really scale back good for them it is
