If they end up with a odd number of players, they generally give the single player going off first alone in the morning the option of having a marker play along with them. The marker is usually one of the better players that is a member at Augusta. Its a pace of play thing more than anything else. Some players opt to play alone and get done fairly quickly...others prefer to have someone along with them to help pace themselves.
