OT: 2020 Master's

[Chin Diesel]

I'd love to see Bryson and Brooks in the final group on Sunday and Brooks just stoning BDC.

For sentimental purposes, I also want to see Mike Weir make the cut at 50.

Wish granted. Weir playing the weekend.

Hard to really offer recommendations w/o seeing who's at what tier. Since you mentioned you only get to pick one top 10 guy, that's a tough call. Morikawa would be in that group most likely, and I don't know if I'd pick him over Bryson (and I don't like Bryson either).

Dark horses down ballot (probably tiers 3-4 on your card) likely to make the cut include guys like Ancer, Hughes, Cantlay, Dahmen and Redman. I've used those guys in my pools this year with very good results.

Good calls with Cantlay and Ancer. (So Far).

 

[Duncan Idaho]

This is great!

Is the MY GROUP function working? I selected a bunch of favorites, but when I choose my group, all I see is a message saying no new videos, even though my guys are on the course. Am I missing something?

EDIT: Solution: You have to keep that tab open for it to load data...if you switch to a different view it starts over

Wish they could track the entire group on the shot track map instead individual players.

I didn't even consider that Hughes, Redman and Dahmen didn't qualify for the field. So bad calls there, lol.

Long ass day but DJ in command.

Augusta can be a fun course when all you need to do is make par.

Bunch of these guys now need to make a ton of birdies and this course bites hardest when you try try to force birdies when they aren't there to be had. Simple stuff like JT flying #15, Rahm's blow up on #8.
You know some of these chasers are going to shoot at the flag on 12 tomorrow. And we all know 1 or 2 of them are going to be short and roll back in to Rae's Creek.
Ancer looks like he has a great US Open game and will be around for years.Fairways and greens and doesn't put himself in low percentage locations. Almost a bit like Ooisthuizen.

Was definitely thinking we're going to see Ancer contend in a lot of majors. Really good ball striker.

DJ seems to be on cruise control at this point. If you know you can split the fairway every time, it takes so much pressure off.

DJ pretty much has this on lock. All the guys chasing will have to play a super aggressive style which is not ideal at Augusta. If he just plays for par and grab a birdie or 2 on the par 5 he wins easy.

He shoots 70 and that means second place has to shoot 66 for a tie and everyone else has to go 65 or lower.

And we all know those greens aren't seeing a drop of water tonight.

Ancer's second shot on 10 really caught my attention. Downhill lie (obviously) and 200 yards. Looked like ball was coming in a bit low, but he hit the green and stuck the shot. I want to see that shot tomorrow on some harder greens and see what happens. If he can hit those lower irons from that distance and still hold them, I am much more bullish on his long term success in majors.

Really like Ancer’s playing. Nice swing.

Just bailed out of all my bets and took DJ to win at -325

That's how Jack and Tiger used to close the deal

For DJ.

Hole 1-3. Play even or -1. #1 is tough, DJ has destroyed #2 all week, #3 put in fairway and hit the green. #3 can be an easy 3 putt if you hit first putt like you want to make it.

Hole 4-6. No worse than +1. Three hardest holes on the course.

Holes 7-9. -1. Seven isn't easy but need a birdie at 8 or 9.

Objective. 35. Great score is 34. Shouldn't be 36 or worse.

Holes 10-12. Second hardest group of holes. Just make pars and move on.

Holes 13-15. -1 to -2. Two reachable par 5's. He will be playing last and k ow how aggressive to be.

Final stretch 16-18. -1 to even. 16 is easy. Hit to top of green and let it dribble back to bottom. Be careful on 17. Find fairway off tee shot on 18 and enjoy the walk up to top of hill.

69-70 should be fairly pedestrian round.

Next...

2021?

 

[Umami Zen]

DJ just needs fairways and greens.. Let the rest of the field take chances/risks..

 

[jleves]

Tiger just took a 10 on the par 3 12th. OUCH!

 

[Jaker]

Getting interesting.

Ugh it was, water 3X yikes. Went from -3 to +4 on a hole.

Amazingly he’s played -2 since and just hit a dart on 16 to 2 feet. Never quits!

 

[Jaker]

Just got fitted for my Ping 710 irons, watching this Masters and getting pumped for winter golf.

 

[Jaker]

Huge missed putt for Cameron Smith

 

[HuskyHawk]

those shots on 14. Wow. Three great shots.

 

[storrsroars]

Getting interesting.

No longer interesting. DJ would need to go full Van de Velde to blow this.

Sack the bats.

Smith's duck hook just sealed the deal. See you in April.

This has been an incredibly boring tournament.
