But the latest weather forecasts have suggested there will be a dramatic shift to this, with thundery showers set to wreak havoc on Friday and Saturday for the tournament.
The storms started at around 11am GMT (7am EST) and are set to get progressively worse up to 8pm GMT (4pm EST), with wind picking up pace after 5pm GMT (1pm EST).
As a result, the tee off times for the second round were pushed up by 30 minutes.
And while this was good news for those starting in the morning, those teeing off in the afternoon could find themselves rained under.
Saturday’s forecast doesn’t make much better reading, with rain set to be falling all day.
Rain is even expected to fall on Sunday morning in a further blow to tournament officials.
Indeed, the storms have prompted fears the Masters will be delayed by TWO days.
Such an event could result in a rare Monday finish.
