AUGUSTA, Georgia : The par-five 13th at Augusta National has long been one of the more consequential holes on the layout and players may give it more respect as changes made ahead of this year's Masters have restored its integrity.

World number three Jon Rahm, who has played Azalea in 14 under through 24 Masters rounds, feels more players will lay up but also believes there is no reason to think the hole will not play a pivotal role in deciding who slips into the Green Jacket.
