Is it?

And if you're talking about Phil, his name is not missing - it's on the list, and we talked about it awhile ago:

I am talking about Tiger. Vegas has posted odds for him as well.

I think all the players who are invited can play a few times in the months leading up to the event, of course, as well. They used to have to go on scouting trips. Now, that's not as much of a thing anymore.

I'm guessing that only applies for players who are entered for the upcoming tournament, and he's on the Past Winners Not Playing list.

I'll be (pleasantly) shocked if Tiger is able to play.

As usual I will be rooting for Rory, he always seems to crumble at Augusta though, hopefully tnis is his year. I wouldn't be surprised to see Cameron Smith win, he is playing serious stuff and he seems cool under pressure.

This is just my opinion; For me The Masters is my favorite sporting event of the year. 
It far surpasses The Super Bowl, March Madness, The NBA finals, The World Series, What ever college football championship we are being sold that year. 

I really enjoy Masters Week.

I’ve been trying to get tickets for years. My parents went to a couple practice rounds a few years ago and brought me back several items from the course. Man, I love those items, as small and trivial as they may be, there’s something about The Masters logo on a ball marker, or ball, or hat that actually came from Augusta.

I think a wet/soggy Masters does not do TW any favors. Tougher walking, less distance, less emphasis on creativity and short game shots.

Agreed.  Wet/soggy conditions changes the way the entire tournament plays out.

I think we can fairly assume, at this point, that sometime in his past Tiger met the Devil at a crossroads and made a deal.

So, I'll pick him to play.

And win.

    • A 5400 yd course is not that short for gents driving it 160 yards considering the approach shot lengths they are going to be faced with on Par 4s.  Also, for the course you are referring to I estimate the Par 4s have to average longer than 260 yds, because the Par 5s are 800 yds or so, and if there are four Par 3s averaging 130 the total is 1320 yds.  This leaves 4080 yds remaining for 12 Par 4s.  That is an average of 340 per hole. Anyway, if there are super seniors driving it only 160ish and breaking 80 consistently, they must be elite/exceptional in other aspects of their games.  I play a lot of golf with 65-75 yr old seniors on a 5400 yd course.  They all drive it 180-200 or so, but many are slicers and poor iron players.  None can break 80. I am 66 and drive it 200 yds.  My average score is 76.  On that course my average approach shot on Par 4s is 125 yds.  The ten Par 4s average 313 yds.  By that comparison the 160 yd driver of the ball would have 165 left when attempting GIR on those holes.     
    • I don't think you can snag lpga.golf without the actual LPGA having a reasonable claim to it. You can find a ton of articles of things like this, but basically: 5 Domain Name Battles of the Early Web At the dawn of the world wide web, early adopters were scooping up domain names like crazy. Which led to quite a few battles over everything from MTV.com You could buy it, though, and hope the LPGA will give you a thousand bucks for it, or tickets to an event, or something like that. It'd certainly be cheaper than suing you to get it back, even though they'd likely win. As for whether women and golfers can learn that ".golf" is a valid domain, I think that's up to you knowing your audience. My daughter has natalie.golf and I have erik.golf.
    • That's a great spring/summer of trips! I'll be in Pinehurst in March, playing Pinehurst No. 2, No. 10, Tobacco Road, and The Cradle. 
    • April 2025 - Pinehurst, playing Mid Pines and Southern Pines + 3 other courses. Probably Talamore, Mid-South, and one other.  July 2025 - Bandon Dunes, just me and my dad.
