Rickie Fowler still has a chance of keeping his top five in majors streak alive! :-D

Look at the ratings. Wit out TW last year, worse Masters ratings in 50 yrs. hate to break the news to you, but Tiger is the PGA. Admit it or not, it's true.

The problem with that logic is that Tiger wasn't around for 31 of those years. There's more to the ratings dip than Tiger being missing. As for your opinion about Tiger " being the PGA ", he's the primary force behind getting non-golfers interested in the sport but he's not bigger than the game.

Soft Augusta really doesn't make for interesting viewing. It's not the Humana Challenge.

I get so excited for the masters every year, and it lets me down most years. The course just seems really easy for these guys now. i will not even get into how the word "patrons" is like nails on a chalkboard every time I hear it. Can't wait for the US Open and that nasty rough.

Tiger gets up and down from 28yards on the par 5 2nd hole for birdie.  Sinks 6 footer- his short game appears alive so far.

I personally don't have an issue with the playing conditions. The moisture is being retained by the greens, so what? I'm still as excited to watch this year as I have been since I was 10. Something about this tournament. On a side note, I've realized this masters how much better golf is with Tiger in it. I'm not a huge tiger fan but it's a lie if I said I don't enjoy watching him play. Even recording the tournament I find myself forwarding through other players just to see him.

I would love to see both Tiger and Rory chase down Spieth for a Sunday showdown.

Did Tiger just stick it 10 inches from the cup on par 3?

That's what Tracker seems to say.

Wow!!!

They both have a looooooong way to go. But I do think it's a good thing Tiger's playing with Sergio. For some reason, Tiger always plays his best when he plays with him.

He's probably going to rattle his clubs in Sergio's backswing at least once.

If that's right, Tiger will be -3 on the day. -5 overall.  T7.

Sergio's gotta pick up his game to match.

    • 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.
