Is Augusta changing the time honoured tradition of pairing the reigning U.S. Amateur champion, currently, Drew Weaver, with the defending champion of The Masters, who this year is Zach Johnson, over the first two days? They are on diferent draws this year.

Correction. The current U.S. Amateur Champion is Colt Knost, with apologies to the chap., and not Drew Weaver. Apologies.
