I really don't know why I fail to just take this day off every year so that I can stay home and watch TV instead of reading about the tourney or logging onto the Masters site.

Dear Tiger, Please for once follow through on a good round with another one. Whatever you do, please don't go out and shoot a mediocre 73 after your 66. Use this round as a confidence boost and

Is Lee Trevino is considered one of the greats and he had no love for Augusta National. He finished in the top 10 a couple times, but it was the one major he really had no shot at winning. Q

Hot streaks only take you so far before the odds catch up to you and that ugly bogey creeps in. (in general) 72 I say gives him a 75% chance of winning. The odds just get better if he can go under. Just don't back up under pressure when that player does make a run at you.

Gonna be fun!!

Oh my Tiger... just when Rory think she's settled down a bit, all of a sudden Tiger Woods shows up with a massive charge.

I realize Rory is probably the player on the field LEAST likely to be afraid of Tiger, but there's golfers chasing you and there's Tiger Woods.

Why in Gods name would TW winning be awful??  I really dont get the TW haters.  TW winning again and being what he was or near what he was before is nothing but great for golf.

Why would it be awful.  It would be a great comeback story.  When was the last time someone came back from 7 down to win the Masters on a Sunday.

It looks like the days of old for Tigers competition.  Everyone looking like they are play scared, everyone EXCEPT Tiger looks that way.

Wow, guess I won't be going to the gym today.

With the scores so close, what are the odds of a playoff happening?  Would they play individual holes or an entire round?

2011 Goals:
* Improve club-head speed to 90 mph with the driver
* Ensure increased speed does not compromise accuracy
* Prevent overextending on the back-swing (left-arm is bending too much at the top)
* Relax arms initially at address ( too tense)* Play more full rounds (failed from 2010)

      -9 Day One at Arnold Palmer

      By MentalityJohn · Posted

      Are these course getting easier? are the players getting better? should we not worry about tournaments that used to produce single digit winners are now producing course records year after year.  I am not talking roll back I am just curious why scores are so much lower than five to ten years ago.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By Golfnutgalen · Posted

      I've posted plenty of positive things about Tiger over the years. I just like to play fair.  But if you want to see me praise TW some more here you go: 12 wins by 7 shots or more - Jack had 4 3 separate win streaks of 5 or more in a row - Jack won 3 in a row once It took Jack 172 more events and 9 extra years to reach Tiger's 71 wins by 2009 TW is the only player since 1900 to win a major by double digits and he did it twice 30% peak win rate is even higher than the previous record holder Ben Hogan (25%) 11 time PGA Tour Player of the year - Jack had 5 12 times lead the Tour in wins - Jack 6 10 times money list leader - Jack 8 Jack officially has 73 wins, but 2 of them are team wins with Arnie. You could argue he should be listed with 71 and I wouldn't disagree.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By Golfnutgalen · Posted

      I mean that's clearly an opinion.  The funny thing is I never even attacked Tiger, I just pointed out that the other poster had a point when he mentioned that Jack had a longer career. Tiger basically had 5 years when he could have been winning more tournaments if not for his injuries. 2010-2011 and then again 2015-2017. Hard to make the argument after his final win because not many players win a ton after age 43.  If those numbers support the fact that Jack had a longer career so be it. Don't take that as an affront to Tiger.

      Even injured Tiger had a more impressive career than Jack against much stiffer competition. This was confirmed by Jack quite a few times. You want to ignore that, but it’s fact.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By 5amZ · Posted

      Day 201 3-5 Wider backswing and higher. Practiced consisted of mostly backswing today. Wrist arching through downswing still a focus on full shots with a pause.  Will probably have a 2nd practice tonight blending wider backswing into more of full swing without pause at the top.
