Rory appears to be taking the scenic route on this fourth hole.

Brutal, but he did just birdie 5. [quote name="RandallT" url="/t/73499/2014-masters-discussion-thread/570_30#post_975425"] That was a weird slice swing with a wood on that par 3 by Rory. Looked kinda OTT and awkward. [/quote] He was setup well left and clearly trying to cut it towards the hole. The announcers were saying maybe he just didn't feel the wind or something, because it was really flying.

It's still possible that the cut will move to +5.

It's possible, but I think that's unlikely at this point.  There are 5 guys aleady in at +4 and if it ends now, thats 51 players.  There are 4 more still out on the course at +4, so all of them as well as 2 of the guys at +3 or better would all have to drop back to +5 to get those guys all in.

I think +4 is pretty safe at this point ... but then again, you never know.

Correct. Wasn't clever for Reed to say it the first time, let alone all the others

Haha!  Touche.

It's possible.

There are 4 guys on the course at +4, 4 guys on course at +3, 3 guys on the course at +2. It's playing tough now it seems. But 6 of those 10 need to drop to +5.

Whoops, sorry Randall.  It took me 5 more minutes to say the exact same thing you said.  What can I say ... I'm slow. :beer:

Haven't seen much of Rickie Fowler, but he just started the back 9. Still at -1 for the tournament.

IS number 11 the hardest hole on the course or what?  Maybe there are some tougher ones on the front that I haven't seen?

Looks like so far there have been 2 birdies on that hole (Senden and Garcia) compared to 6 double bogies and a triple.

Freddy is like a greenskeeper out there...he's picking up every leaf, tapping down marks that aren't anywhere near his line with that walking cane of a putter lol.

Damn it, Dufner! When I entered our contest here, I had Bubba Watson -12 typed out and before I hit submit, I replaced him with Duffy. I do the same damn thing in Daily Fantasy Basketball and Football! :censored:

I'm not totally out of the driver contest!  My man Fdez-Castano shot a tidy little 69 today to put himself at level par (trying to sounds European there) and in a tie for 14th!!

There's currently 56 players at +4 (the cut) or better this very moment.

LOL did you guys see Weir's caddie shake his head in disbelief when he hole that putt just now? He can't believe Mike's playing well either. :-D

I'm sure ( as a Canadian ) Weir apologized immediately to his caddie

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
