RORY vs. Blue Monster

[dagolfer]

The blue monster of doral hasn't eaten him up yet. He is right atop the leaderboard. I hope he can stay there through the weekend and compete for the win on sunday afternoon. I don't know what it is, maybe being a teenage golfer is what makes me like him so much. I hope he tears up Agusta in a couple weeks.

He is simply an amazing golfer. One of the best swings I've ever seen. Only a matter of time before the wins begin to pile up.

Ernie Els said that Rory will be number one golfer in the world someday, I enjoy watching him play also. He and Darren Clark are very close friends.

Being a young person myself(22), Rory has alot of qualities that many younger people don't have nowadays and could surely use. Number #1 being respect.

That 3 wood into the wind 267 yards over water yesterday was phenomenal. If he can handle all the media/social pressures and not get injured, he'll do really well.

From the quotations that I have read in the media, Rory seems to be well-grounded for a 19 year old who is being praised so highly. It is difficult for some players to live up to high expectations, especially when they are being touted as a "can't miss" and a future #1. I wish him the best.

he seems like a nice kid. I hope he does well.

The Blue Monster bit Rory a couple of times in the rough on Sunday. That's just inexperience playing out of that type of grass. I love watching Rory play and I am sure that he's going to grow into a great player.

I ran this image through my head the other day. Rory, tiger and others all battling for the masters championship but they don't have to be paired together just alll battling on the leader board. Rory wins the green jacket. Next year masters comes around and tiger is once again "human" and wins. Just picture the cerimonies afterward with rory placing the green jacket on tiger. I think this would be great for golf.

I hope he has an excellent showing at Augusta.

He's such a bold putter....his ballstriking is also flawless.....and he handles himself so calmly.

I can easily see a green jacket in his future.
