Damn, I missed Tiger's recovery shot.  I guess I'll just have to tune into the Golf Channel tonight and see it forty six times.

hahahahaha.

In other news, I'd absolutely LOVE to see Ernie win the green jacket. LOVE

Yah it was a back-wrencher just watching it. I need to stretch now. Tiger looks fine though after that lash. He must've seen an opening in trees up high cuz commentators thought he was going with a low fade and didn't know how he could pull it off. Then he lashed it high

Funny, at Dutch television they saw and said immediatly he was going for a high shot.

Any of you guys following on the website have any insight on Tiger's driving distance?  I'm curious where he's at in relation to the field.

Holy sh*t, Crenshaw ended up shooting a  91.

Completely fell about after the two straight birdies.

Crenshaw's game didn't age very well.  He ever make any noise on the senior tour?  Because I don't remember him doing shit.

Have to work so I'm just watching the tracker on the masters website. Even though I'm not the biggest Tiger fan I find myself really rooting for him to turn it around this week! Looks pretty good so far. Jordan Spieth is kicking some ass and nice to see my boy Kevin Streelman up there!

Hole 1: 293 (165 left to pin)

Hole 2: 254 (305 left to pin)

Hole 3: 325 (24 left to pin)

Hole 5: 212 (217 left to pin)

Hole 7: 285 (165 left to pin)

Hole 8: 305 (269 left to pin)

Hole 9: tee coming

I can't find any stats for the field.  Obviously, not all of these were going for distance with driver. #7 was a 3-wood, I believe, according to commentator.

Datta boy Spieth. He's my golden Vegas ticket. Keep it going. Love the way he's been playing coming into this week. No one's playing better so this shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

Tom Rinaldi, with his syrupy voice and sappy questions is a perfect match for Augusta National.

Thanks.  I was curious.  He's getting it out there well enough.

    • 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.
