On air now! I think. Will try and stream myself in a bit. The schedules below conflict, but you get the idea...

Edit: I was wrong, not on now. Looks like 4pm.

I'm watching it right now. I'm rooting for the Ricky Barnes look-a-like swing-a-like or Taiwan's own Cheng-Tsung Pan.

I think it's on until Saturday or Sunday. I'd recommend going. It'll be pretty cool & get to see some future stars of golf.

Some 36 year old dude has reached the quarterfinals. Would be pretty interesting if he went further.

Assuming you are talking about two time Mid Amateur Champion, two time (3 time?) Walker Cup player Nathan Smith from Pittsburgh. He's a +4 handicap and can really play.

This is what's great about almost everyone having a video camera on their person.

Gunn Yang claimed the US Amateur on the 35th hole. Koreans seem to kick ass in the US AM. Danny Lee & Byeong Han An both won. Neither have done jack shit since.

Yep. Yang looked like he hit the ball a long ways, though. Which I think Danny Lee did too. It will be interesting to see how he progresses.

Yang ranked 776, had back surgery 15 months ago, recently lost scholarship to San Diego State. Boom! Wins amateur. All is well. Talk about highs and lows. http://mobile.golfweek.com/news/2014/aug/17/amateur-golf-gunn-yang-wins-2014-us-amateur/?templates=mobile http://www.golfchannel.com/news/ryan-lavner/yang-completes-improbable-journey-us-am-title/

    • Yeah I’ve tried it but I don’t feel very comfortable doing it like that. Isn’t there like a website where I can do it so it’s safer??  
    • Day 200 3-4 Wider back swing, arms up a bit higher, and added in some flow work to start getting a since of a full swing. Still focusing on arching wrist through downswing. 
    • It's going to be very difficult for the 2026 Masters to match the 2025 edition for storyline. I honestly don't know that anyone else in the field could match the story of Rory finally winning after so many years and the blow ups over the years, not to mention the career slam being completed. No one this year that I can think of is remotely close to that kind of story. Combine that with the attempts at blow ups last year (Double on the 1st, 13, 18 on first try) and the stunningly good shots that he hit in the final round (7, 15, 17, 18 on second try).  Full gamut: https://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/2025-04-13/17445961638226475/every_single_shot_from_rory_mcilroys_final_round.html
    • Let's kick off the 2026 Masters talk with… a look back at 2025 (coming soon):
    • Wow, so Europe named Luke for a third term. Luke Donald named 2027 European Ryder Cup Captain Luke Donald named 2027 European Ryder Cup Captain Who will the U.S. name? I hope not Tiger Woods.
