MASTERS commentator Brandel Chamblee has revealed the words they are banned from saying at Augusta.
The 62-year-old former golfer won one PGA Tour title during his career and has since moved into broadcasting.

Chamblee is working for Sky Sports this year and lifted the lid on the strict rules commentators must abide by.
He told the Fore Play Podcast: “There are things you shouldn’t say. Fan is a big one.
“In their eyes, it’s short for fanatical and they don’t want to refer to the people that are out there as being fanatical.
“That’s why you hear people say patron. You could probably say spectator.
“You don’t say driving range. It’s a tournament practice facility.
“You could probably get away with ‘back nine’. The saying is that The Masters doesn’t begin until the back nine on Sunday. But if you said back nine on the air, you would get reprimanded.
“It’s the second nine. You don’t want somebody to say, ‘he’s playing the backside really well’.
“Back nine is close to backside and backside is just far too colloquial.
“Somebody famously said, ‘What’s giving him problems here is the wind from his backside’.
“If you go to the live telecast, it very much has that front porch, sweet tea, talking to your grandmother feel to it. That is by design.”

Commentary phrases are not the only things banned at the Masters, with the likes of phones, running, sitting on the grass, heckling and bringing your own food or drink all prohibited.
