The announcer said if you lay back to 80 yards the player would get 8 feet at worst from the pin. He was talking about either going for it and missing it long on hole #13 versus laying up short. One of the guys went back left and the chip on ran to about 20 feet because that green is so severe near the back of the green.

On pure stats, PGA Tour average is 17'3" from 75-100 yards. He's a bit off, more like 200% off.

I was just going to comment on this. I'd lay up on 13 all day today unless I was absolutely positive I could hit the middle of the green. Going long requires a super delicate chip back. And coming up short...well, water.

The glutes joke is never going to get old (to me anyway), so I am going to reserve the right to use it as often as possible (especially since it is still fresh in 2015 isn't it?). :) Furthermore, exc

I had to turn off the feed right as Harman was about to pitch onto the green after dunking into the water, but short sided, with the water and slope down back into the creek doesn't seem like any picnic either. I'd rather be off the green with my second like Hoffman.

Harman pitched it to like 5 feet, it didn't look particularly difficult either (for a pro).

I believe both Hoffman and Harman parred it. Hoffman's chip of the green was absolutely ridiculous. He aimed like 50 feet left and it still wasn't enough. Rolled 20 feet right of the hole.

I love the 12th hole so much.

And no, I never had CC to begin with.


Ack, oh well. Thanks for the reply, Crim.

Good start by Rose. Had a rough start to the year but started feeling it a couple weeks ago and said he feels almost back to his 2013 form. A good time to get your game back.

LOL wow, Villegas got so lucky on that hook into the trees.

Edit: Mize lays up on 13. Pitches to a foot away from the pin. :beer:

Tee shot on 13 is my favorite shot on the course. Second shot on 11 is my favorite approach shot. I'm in heaven watching the amen corner feed.

Wow, incredible eagle put from Danny Willet on the 13th. I bet he's glad that dropped. Looked like it had some speed going in there.

That was really fat. Don't see that out of Tour pros often.

I can't wait to see what scores better at the end of the day on 13. Laying up or going for it.

This coverage

http://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/live.html?videoChannel=ac&promo;=hero_live_WatchLiveatAmenCorner

is so much cleaner than the normal CBSlive feed

For real, when I get home I'm plugging my laptop into my HDTV and going straight to the Masters website, I think it'll look pretty damn good.

      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?? I got scammed one time on FBM so I don’t trust it.

      2026 Masters

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      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
