I am (in no uncertain terms) a Masters junkie. I love it...from the Bobby Jones mystique to last flowering Dogwood...I think that the Home of the Green Jacket is by-far the best golf you can ever watch on TV.

This year I enjoyed it more than ever, and for two reasons...
1) I got an HDTV with HD service (wear sunglasses when Camilo Vargas's pants are on the screen)

2) www.MASTERS.org

I don't know how it came together, but MASTERS.org's LIVE coverage from Amen corner, the player interviews, the live feed from the driving range, the course overview & fly-overs & the player scorecards and bios were all too much for me to handle. Easy to use, and made enjoying the Masters all the better! Just because the TV coverage begins at 3:30pm EST doesn't mean that I don't want to be tuned into the live action, and MASTERS.org went live around 12:30pm each day.

Hey - I'm not trying to sound like a commercial for this site, but I hope the other Majors learn from it...great stuff.

Did anyone else enjoy it online???

Next year...hope to get some practice tickets and see it in person!!!

I agree with you, masters.org is by far the best sporting event website I've ever been to. I literally wasted about 15.75 of the 16 hours I was working on Masters Thursday and Friday just browsing that site, watching Live at Amen Corner and catching everything else that was there.

I remember a few years ago, I think the first edition of Live at Amen Corner and they had no commentators and basically about 3 cameras (one per hole is about all) but now it is absolutely just as good as television coverage.

I really liked the added bonus coverage on the web as well. Good stuff indeed, I can't wait to see how they improve upon it next year!!

Yeah, let me also say that the site was pretty awesome. I was a little disappointed that coverage didn't start until 3:30 Saturday and 2:30 Sunday but masters.org filled the need. I had some problems getting the bonus coverage to play (only thing I could get at times was the driving range) but I think that was my computer, not the site. Not only was I on there Thur-Sun but also reading the pre tournament interviews.
