One Masters Jacket Only

Golfers can't collect a new green jacket for every Masters title. Since 1949, the champion receives one jacket, may take it off-site for a year, and then must return it to Augusta National, where it stays as his personal property in the clubhouse. Multiple winners use the same jacket from their first victory unless they need a refit. This rule maintains the tradition and ensures that the jackets remain on club grounds.
