Homeowner turned his backyard into a miniature version of the Masters golf course
  • A golf fan in Arizona turned his backyard into a putt-putt course inspired by Augusta National's back-nine.
  • The course includes the famous Masters leaderboard, the bridge, and even replicates a famous shot by Tiger Woods.

In Phoenix, Arizona, a homeowner turned their backyard into a miniature golf course designed after the Masters back-nine at Augusta National.

Before the 2021 Masters, former PGA Tour caddie Michael Collins visited the house and played a round for his ESPN+ show, "America's Caddie."

The house belongs to the Augustyniak family, and the course is called "Augustyniak National."

AJ Augustyniak also holds the course record at 10-under.

The course was designed and built by PuttTek, a company founded by a former Arizona Amateur Golfer of the Year. It took a month to build.

It looks like a golf fan's dream backyard, and it didn't even need a lot of space.

The course takes up 6,000 square feet of the backyard, and there was still enough room left over for a pool.

The course comes with bunkers and water hazards.

The 12th hole includes the famous Agusta National bridge.

The 16th hole includes an area next to the green designed to replicate Tiger's legendary chip-in in 2005.

Collins eventually won his round with a putt on the first playoff hole.
