The 2024 Masters is all set to be held from April 11 to 14 and as tradition dictates, it is Jon Rahm's year to host the Masters dinner as the defending champion. Since all the way back in 1954, the previous year's winner hosts the Champions dinner in Augusta's clubhouse ahead of the tournament.
The defending champion also gets to choose the entire menu, and Jon Rahm's choice for the year was recently revealed by the Masters. Items on the menu include Lentil Stew, Black Truffle, Basque Crab Salad, Basque Ribeye and Puff Pastry Cake.
Several fans loved the menu, but some were unhappy that Rahm is playing from the LIV Golf Series this time.
"Should have a main course of snake and rat," one fan wrote.
"what an absolute banger menu," another fan wrote.
Here are a few more reactions:

Last year, Jon Rahm won the 2023 Masters by a huge margin. He took the win by four strokes, while Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson came in joint second place. This year, all three of these golfers are part of the LIV Golf Series.
Scottie Scheffler is one of the favorites to win the tournament this year. There are many who are rooting for Rory McIlroy too, as he has been in search for a Major win for over a decade. Winning the Masters will also allow McIlroy to fulfil his golf Grand Slam, i.e. winning all the Major championships.
