Augusta National reportedly admits four new members, including $160 million worth former Giants QB

The Augusta National Golf Club, which is extremely popular for hosting the Masters Tournament, has a reputation for not publicly speaking about their membership. While reports suggest the golf club hosts 300 members which includes Jack Nicklaus and Bill Gates, the official figures aren't public.

As per a recent report, the Augusta National has added four new members. Josh Carpenter reported in the Sports Business Journal that the premier golf club has added former CBS Sports Chairman Sean McManus and $160m worth (as per Celebrity Net Worth) former Giants Quarterback Eli Manning.

Apart from these two names, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy and Delta Airlines CEO Ed Bastian have also joined the Augusta National Golf Club. It's worth noting that Eli Manning's brother, Peyton Manning, who was also a NFL Quarterback, is a member of the golf club.

As it goes without saying, the new members who have reportedly been added to the Augusta National have experience with the sport. While McManus is known to be an avid golfer, Peyton Manning too has been a part of the PGA Tour Pro-Am events in the past.
