The 2015 Masters is just a few weeks away. There are a number of ways to prepare for the event. Here at CBSSports.com, we've looked at sleepers for this season, Tiger Woods' injury history and the five golfers who have completed the career Grand Slam.

Today, I wanted to use a different avenue to get pumped for the first major of the year. I've been going through old photos of the course and came upon a ton of tremendous snapshots of one of the most famous tracks in the world.

Here are eight of the best I've found.
