OT: The Master's. Tiger's In. As of Now

[storrsroars]

Good thing I didn't bet a pool this year... Ancer is MC. Thought this was going to be a big year for him.

Also bummed Weir doesn't make the weekend, even if cut line moves to -5. Always enjoyed him game as grinder without a ton of power. He was like a lefty Corey Pavin without all the whining. Weir's Masters win 19 years ago was one of the grittiest wins Augusta has seen.

Tomorrow weather. Almost same wind as today but cooler and less sun.

 

[methodology]

Tomorrow gonna be a fun day to watch

 

[alphasigko]

He is truly unbelievable and one of a kind. Hats off to him!

If the cut is -5 scheffler will be the only one playing

Check this mornings telecast by the Golf Channel. I mean Jim Gallagher can you please shave your head or at least that crap combover on top middle you look so ridiculous

Do you guys think Scheffler keeps this up or does he come back to the pack? If he has an off day this gets very competitive tomorrow.

Thursday night I said 280 (-8) would be a score almost every play would sign up for given the weather on Fri/Sat and I think that will still be a great score.

Scheffler got a bit lucky with the wind dying down the last few hours when he played the back 9. Those players who finished up around 3-4 pm yesterday had 18 holes of real tough wind.

All that being said, Scheffler has shown past three season that he has the game to handle the moment. This weekend may be his coronation as best player in the world.

He’s confident and I can’t see him moving back at all. How much he increases is the key to letting a couple people in tomorrow. Will be a fun Saturday for sure.

3pm Masters and Yanks/Sox good day!

Scotty knows how to play the wind .. Texas golfer.. Having Bubba's former caddy on the bag (two-time Master's champ) doesn't hurt.. Fairways and greens.. All he needs to do today is play par golf

Much as I like watching the Masters, I have to deal with my wife, who was at Augusta in the 90s. For 20+ years I have to listen to her go on and on and on and on about how TV doesn't do justice to the elevation changes, and descriptions of every single GD hole.

I only get to counter when The Open is at St. Andrews, so it's simply not fair.

His 1st 3 putt of the tourney hole 1 not a good start bogwah!

Sounds to me like you have carte blanche to go whenever you want. Stop watching on TV, start going every year in person with her.

Tiger struggling to start hope he doesn’t come unraveled

Getting tickets is the hard part. First time I applied got them but couldn’t go because of work. Been trying every year since. Nada

Might have to bite the bullet and pay way too much to go

Carte blanche ended after the 90s. Since 2001, our income has been on a Benjamin Button track.

fwiw, she went as a guest of a corporate supplier.

Tiger with the 13 over par final score. Happy to see it.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Least stressful 90 min of golf Scheffler will play in a long time.

This Tourney was over when Smith dumped his teeth shot in to Rae's Creek on 12.

Was rooting for my man Rory but this kid Scotty looks like the real deal. Did I hear right that his winning percentage is about 60%.

 

[Dove]

The fake birds are driving me crazy

I know I heard an African piptit

 

[jleves]

My picks were 1st and 5th. Better than I usually do.

Scotty just had that feel about him going in.

Awesome final round by Rory. Good to see. I hope he gets a jacket one year.

'enjoy the good days while you can.'
me? me alone? don't you think
'enjoy the good days while youse can'
would be the better advice, seeing how there's millions of us Tiger fans?
his limp will be fine, and go away. prolly not months, more like years methinks.
the picture is a big fail however, since the operative phrase here was 'clubs flying in the water.' u see any water? u see any clubs flying? u see any in that crowd even looking at Tiger? im pretty sure iffn the term 'flying clubs' and Tiger Woods were in the same sentence, sumone would pay attention. and speaking of paying attention, i try to pay attention cuz when i do, attention has a pretty sweet way of paying me back.
mebbe there's a 'no clubs on the tee' rule, and he just booted it off as he walked by. or mebbe its a photo of you, or someone like you when the phone goes off, and u've found out that u have to cut the round short. seems like i've seen that a lot lately, with folks kicking, throwing, and yelling at things after just getting off the phone.
'The report also gives more detail about Woods’ leg injury, reading “open fracture, mid shaft on his right leg, below knee,”
is that,... is ..that, his right leg on the boot?

i try to keep my cultural references age appropriate. many old people never seem to get 'the healing' thing. mebbe they don't listen to tom brady enough.
