It's just everything about him... His stupid buttoned to the top style, his visor, his perpetually chapped puckered-up dog's butthole lips, his whining, his hovering his driver before swinging...

Haha, I kind of like him.  Maybe it's because he's a lefty.

I think I'm going to be like @joekelly and root for Jiminez...or maybe Westwood...or maybe Bubba - haha.

Anybody but Bubba. What a douche.

If he was a rapper he'd be Sir-Douche-a-lot...

Just saw a list on TGC of Bubba's career 54-hole leads and the results. Each of his final placings is a power of two.

I'd love to see Jimmy do it, gotta love that dude. [quote name="Motley01" url="/t/73499/2014-masters-discussion-thread/828#post_975884"] LOL that my friend is funny as hell. [/quote] Thanks! If he was president, he'd be George Doucheington... Douchebraham Lincoln... Teddy Douchevelt... OK, I'll stop...

I'd like to see Kuchar win, but I have a feeling we're on the verge of seeing a special career unfold before our very eyes with Jordan Spieth. The way this kid's been consistent already before the age of 21 is something that we've never seen before.

Based on some of the later posts it sounds like I may in the minority here, but I'm really excited for tomorrow. 13 guys within 4 of the lead including Spieth, Fowler and MAG. This is going to be good. Probably going to be pulling for Fowler the most. :) Also still get to watch the last 6 or 7 holes from today on the DVR.

Yeah literally anything could happen. It could be a dogfight the whole day, or someone could shoot 66 or 67 and run away with it.

I agree, it's going to be great.

I don't know the score in the US, but we have terrible coverage in the UK, it's not live on TV until the very last group are teeing off, very annoying when the final 4 groups are all in the running

I'm in the minority with you. ;-) I think it will be fun to watch. Sure, I wish it was Tiger and Spieth in the final group but you know what they say about "wish in one hand". Plus I have a feeling I might ought to get used to it.

I'll be rooting for Spieth and Rickie Fowler, though I wouldn't mind guys like Woodland, Westwood, or Kuchar winning. I just hope it's not Bjorn or Blixt (yawn), Bubba (ugh), or Furyk (just shoot me).

They're going to need to hire a few more chefs for next year's champion's dinner if he wins.

    • 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.
