LEHI — Berlin Long of Lehi is headed to Augusta for Masters week. Not to be a spectator but to compete — at 11 years old.

Berlin qualified for the Drive, Chip & Putt national championship Sunday morning on the hallowed golf grounds of Augusta National. She is one of 80 junior golfers that qualified for the championship.

I asked Berlin if she was nervous before competing in a national championship at one of golf's most historic venues.

"No, not really" Berlin said with a smile.

Competitors in each age division will have the chance to score points in driving, chipping and putting. The player with the most points wins.
