Anthony Kim has it going pretty good getting himself to -2 thru 8.

[NorCalGolfer]

he's starting to crap his pants a bit. he's helping out a lot of people by dropping shots here.

[Big_M]

would love to seem him make it up there for the weekend.

[NorCalGolfer]

unless he absolutely wets the bed, he'll be there for the weekend. and I hope he wins.

+2 through Amen corner is a little better than the average right now.

[NorCalGolfer]

yes, but it's also what separates a champion from a contender. kenny perry played it -1.

EDIT: Sorry, he hasn't finished amen corner yet. He has a 4ft putt to take it to -2 :)

[DavidFehertysBike]

If campbell stays on -9 otday and manages to just grind out par over the weekend he'll win the tournament by 3 strokes.

the 10 stroke rule only works to add people, not take them out of the weekend. It is X number, plus anyone within 10.

I understand, but normally it works that a number of people are added due to the +10 rule The X in this case is top 44 and ties. As I write this (using Pga.com), there is a group tied at 34 and a group tied at 45 who would be in because they are within 10 at +1. If he birdies one more hole, anyone at +1 would be out (assuming the +1s don't rise higher than 45).

[NorCalGolfer]

spoke too soon. shoot.

don't know if it's going to stain, but he definately pissed himself on the last two... and he still has 11 and 12 to play.

We've got at least a half of dozen Master's threads going right now so I merged a bunch to this one.

good work... now I can more easily watch and post at the same time!

[Chilli Dipper]

Anthony Kim has made nine birdies today. He and McIlroy were really something to watch on Amen Corner.

[NorCalGolfer]

Go KENNY! And if that doesn't pan out...GO ANTHONY! And if that doesn't pan out... I'll just wait for the U.S. Open.

And I'd love to watch Tiger win as much as the next person, but I don't see it in his eyes. Not yet at least.

Watching the pre-game show on the Golf Channel. I've heard them say "Augusta Country Club" a few times. Are they broadcasting from next door, was this a mistake, or am I imagining things?

[Shindig]

Just saw AK make his 11th birdie. Awesome to see another youngin' set a Masters record

Also, is Eric Larson still on his bag? The caddie I've seen him with today doesn't look like him.

[Chilli Dipper]

AK broke the Masters record with 11 birdies for a round of 65, a 10-stroke improvement over Round 1. He's tied for sixth, five shots back, and officially a person of intrigue going into the weekend.

It's too bad Rory Mac had to double-bogey 16 and 18 to fall well back. He was 4-under for a while.

[Chilli Dipper]

Mr. Alexander Walter Barr Lyle, known to his friends as Sandy, has just birdied 13-17 in a row. Not bad for a guy snubbed for a Ryder Cup captaincy.
