The 2016 Masters Tournament will be the 80th edition of the Masters Tournament and the first of golf's four major championships to be held in 2016. It will be held from April 7–10 at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia.
If you haven't already, I strongly recommend that you check out www.masters.com. Talk about an event and its organizers that take full advantage of every media platform available. The coverage, IMO, is unmatched. I'm sure it will be must see TV on Sunday.

This year's Masters draft will be in reverse order of those standings.
Rules:
The final score of all the players on each team will be added up and the lowest cumulative score wins. Each team will have 4 golfers.
+5 will be added to any players score who misses the cut
-10 will be deducted from the score of the team who picks the Champion
If there is a WD, that player will be given a score of the worst round from that day. And then a one time penalty of +5 (the same penalty a player who misses the cut would get.)
The draft order will be the reverse final standings of the previous major
