The Masters "A Tradition Like None Other"

Well its started today and I have to say I'll waist most of this weekend watching. My pick is Phill M. which up until last week I would not have given him a chance. He did the same thing last year playing bad up until the master so I hope he did not peak one week too soon. It will also be interesting to see what Tiger does. I like having him playing well to add to the drama but I'm picking him to not even make the cut.

Im hoping Tiger plays well. To see him near the top the leaderboard going into Sunday would be great TV. Got the leaderboard up at work...

Hey, he spelled everything correctly...how much do you expect from the guy?


Even if FD wrote "The Masters: Hot to your door in 30 minutes or less" and still spelled everything correctly, it's a huge success for him.




ANYWAYS...

I'm putting my money on someone I've never heard of before. There are a lot of young golfers with some major talent and I think one of them will beat out the usual cast of big names. I just don't know who it is yet. Maybe someone like Rory McIlroy, David Chung, Gary Woodland or Brandt Snedeker.

I just upgraded to a HD receiver and service from Dish...had standard def before, so I'm interested on seeing how awesome golf looks now.

I almost called it.

Never heard of the winner before yesterday though!



That was probably the best round of golf I've ever watched, at least since the Tiger - Rocco playoff at the 2008 US Open...but this one involved about 10 guys coming down to the end...was crazy.

I thought McIlroy had it locked up with a 4-stroke lead going into the last round. Poor guy. He's only 21 though, he'll have plenty of wins...unless this sends him into a mental hospital.

Same thing. I knew it was off just too lazy to look it up. I also figured it would give you guys something to talk about.

Re: The Masters "A Tradition Like None Other"

Despite the botched thread title I love this tournament. I have the live feed from ESPN.com up on my 2nd monitor at the office. Loving it.

The weather is supposed to be tremendous all week. I'll bet the winner comes in at 12 or 13 under.

LOL. Yup. I figured it was either FD or a quote making fun of some broadcaster who botched the phrase. Too funny.

But yeah, it's shaped up to be a great weekend in Augusta. The McIlroy/Fowler/Day trio yesterday was really impressive, and they're all so young.

Fowler looks about 13 years old.

How do you spell choke? M-C-I-L-R-O-Y!

Tiger had an awesome tournament. I hope that he continues to play like this. Last year was just brutal.

Aww man I felt badly for Rory. He played some bad ass golf for 3 1/2 rounds. He's just young. When his mental fortitude catches up with his physical tools, he's gonna be the best player in the world.
