OT: The Masters

The concept of still having to sign a scorecard during a major tournament in 2021 seems so antiquated. The fact that he screwed it up is even worse.

how is there not a tournament official available to certify every round, as it concluded?

Scorers follow each group with a tablet. They are inputting data for each player. But they do not monitor scorecards.
 
Like the Harman and Spieth pairings today.

Neither one is a bomber and they're both ball strikers who have to think their way through the course.

Harman has had a nice run at WGC Match Play and at TPC Sawgrass.
 
Wind is going to get severe this afternoon and a good chance weather may keep third round from finishing today.

If someone going off early can shoot 66-67 and get in clubhouse at -6 or -7 they can be in great shape for Sunday.

The Masters site has Leishman with Harman today Chin. Not sure other sources.

Yeah. I typed it once and edited it and still looks like I missed my point.

Didn't mean to imply they were playing together. I meant I like each of Spieth and Harman in their pairing.

Spieth is with Wiesberger and Harman with Leishman.

The flip side of that is if play gets suspended because of thunderstorms, the guys who haven't finished may have some really soft greens on Sunday morning to finish the round and they can go flag hunting.
 
Faldo said Olazabal told him at the Champions dinner that he hasn't played since November. Lol.
 
Thanks to whoever mentioned the Masters App. Works nicely.

There is. That's how they knew he signed the card incorrectly. He was missing the cut anyway so there's no harm.

Being accountable for verifying your own score is a basic part of tournament golf.
 
Sounds like the gallery is minus the drunks and crazies this year. Minimal screaming after shots.
 
Zalatoris looks like the little stoner that lives across the street from me. Reminds me of Will Wilcox from a few years ago.

Last hour has been a snooze fest.

Literally for me.
 
So, if you're Schauffle, in the last group down four with three other guys tied with you, do you try to adopt a match play mentality to take on Matsuyama alone, or are you more inclined to just get the biggest check you can for 2nd?

Roy McAvoy or David Simms?

I have no doubt Schauffele will go for the win.
Rose was flat before delay and his swing was a mess after delay. Maybe today's dud and not being in last group takes some tension and stress off of him.
Matsuyama was lights out with his irons after delay but I don't trust his putter to hold up tomorrow.
Schauffele has consistently played Augusta good. I'll go with Xander FTW.

Not playing all that well and Matsuyama sure is.

Zallatoris looks like a cartoon character with those toothpick legs.

Matsuyama shanked his first drive but he had a nice recovery and has avoided major problems so far.

I like Zalatoris’s confidence. I know nothing about these guys but I’d bet on him today.

I’m rooting for the Gumby kid at this point. Zero career tour wins. Would like to see Spieth make a run at it, but he Rose and Schauffele probably need Matsuyama to make some bogies.

I am rooting for anyone who doesn’t button his top button.

As if it didn’t look stupid enough, Rose has taken it to another level with that shirt and the MasterCard logo on one side.

Most of the comments are he looks like Happy Gilmore's caddy...and Sandler is rooting for him....I hope he makes a run....
 
Hideki is on fire. He’s gonna run away with this. He’s so hit or miss. Good for him though - when he’s good he’s GOOD. Japan must be losing its collective mind right now.

I’m not even a fan of buttoning the second button. But honestly, I prefer untucked with shorts.
