Report: "Dilly Dilly" References Banned from Masters Premises
By Michael Shamburger
Augusta National Golf Club remains undefeated.
This year we’ve seen quite a few golfers express concerns over the actions of fans during tournaments.
Well, that won’t be happening this week as patrons will be escorted out if they yell certain phrases. Per Bunkered.co.uk, Augusta staff have been issued a sheet stating that the use of “Dilly Dilly” (among other phrases) will earn you a trip back through the gates to the side of the fence you don’t want to be on.
Just been told security staff at Augusta National have been handed a sheet with a list of sayings that are prohibited. I'm told "dilly dilly" is one of them. Patrons who shout out these phrases will be "removed" immediately. #themasters

I’m 100% on board with this. Phrases like “Dilly Dilly,” “Baba Booey,” and “Mashed Potatoes” have no place in this sport. It’s silly and moronic and they mean absolutely nothing.
So, bring on the Masters!
