Making Cents of It All

Tin Cup Club - The Masters

Jesse Stakes Season 3 Episode 101

The boys from the Tin Cup Club join the show to talk about The Masters and preview this years' championship.  Jesse Stakes, Wes Altice, and Mike Padron talk about their favorite all-time memories of the tournament, what makes it so special, and who they think has the best chance of winning the 2025 edition.  Oh yea - and maybe the food at the tournament gets mentioned once or twice!

The Masters Tournament generates significant revenue, though it operates differently from other major golf events. In 2022, the tournament brought in approximately $142 million, with revenue sources including:

  • Merchandise Sales: Around $69 million, driven by exclusive Masters-branded apparel and accessories.
  • Badges (Tickets): Approximately $39 million, with highly sought-after passes priced well below market demand.
  • International TV Rights: About $25 million, as Augusta National controls its broadcast agreements.
  • Concessions: Roughly $8 million, with famously low-priced food and beverages.

So - if you are a golf fan, your professional at anything BUT golf, and your excited about this week's event - this episode is for you!
