The Masters used badges with RFID tags in them

The Masters has been a golf tradition for over eighty-five years, but that doesn't mean they aren't changing with the times. 

Did you know media badges have RFID tags inside them so the club knows where each person is at all times?

The chip cannot determine an individual's identity, just the location of the badge.

According to the official Masters privacy policy, these tags are used to track movement, enhance security, and prevent ticket fraud.

The RFID technology acts as a deterrent to unauthorized entry and allows for monitoring of unusual attendance patterns, such as badge sharing.
