But at Augusta National electronic devices are strictly prohibited. FOMO, also known as fear of missing out, is taking the golf world by storm now that fans are allowed to bring phones on the course. (While phones are a no-no, AT&T does provide banks of free phones and allow patrons to call anywhere in the world.) But Augusta National is a place where everyone is requested to display traditional customs of etiquette, decorum, and behavior, and to obey all tournament policies. There’s a reason you don’t hear patrons screaming, “Mash potatoes!”But don’t hold your breath waiting for the policy to be amended, confirmed Augusta National chairman Fred Ridley.
