i couldn't agree more.  this is the first year i actually preferred watching the round online instead of tv.  the round was so much more in depth, more caddy/player interaction as well as player/player interaction.  very cool.

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

I have phil, rory, and anthony kim as my top three in an 80 person pool, 10 bucks an entry. I guess I am doing okay but anthony kim really has to pick it up.

So what's the census, one under for Tiger after the first round a positive or negative thing? On one hand he missed a good amount of chances but on the other, he didn't blow up and he played some solid golf. I say positive. I mean overall his first round average is 72.something, so technically he's doing better than most times.

tiger changed his putter again. so who knows what will happen with his putting this weekend.

attention all.....did anyone else notice that a commentator got mixed up with Y.E. Yang and KJ Choi?? the guy kept saying Y.E. when it was obviously KJ. he did it twice in fact calling KJ by Y.E. and then there was some silence and then after the cameras went away, they resumed talking. maybe not a big deal, i don't know.

golf is a lot like life. the more you enjoy it, the better off you are. a3_biggrin.gif

Tiger has used this Nike method mallet for like the last 2-3 tournaments. I pretty much expect him to come to tournaments with it now,

Tiger has become predictable. He has one good round on Friday or Saturday, and pads it with a pedestrian showing in the other 54 holes. Thursday was an unspectacular round, and he'll surprise me if he can go lower than 71 more than once this week.

They did a really good job selecting pairings for more airtime. Between the pairings online (Mcilroy, Fowler, and Day) , Mickelson, Ogilvy, and Uihlein...And these mega bombers holding down the caboose with a good show all the way to the end. Looking forward to see how the course plays through the rest of the tournament, there are a lot of pretty difficult hole locations they can use.

Poor Martin hasn't done a good job defending his World No. 1 status in light of that "6 of top 7 players can go to the top of the rankings" talk before the event. He's not going to make the cut, which will only make things easier for his pursuers.

He was in it until the end last year, but IIRC he fell apart on the back nine.

AK just damn near whiffed one from the pine straw on 11. He drove it further into the straw and had to take an unplayable. Watching him is getting painful.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
