2015 Masters Discussion Thread

Well, it certainly seems like McIlroy is really concentrating on letting folks know he's been hitting the weights hard lately.

Working hard in general. His twitter/facebook posts are filled with him either hitting the weights or golf balls. He wants this Grand Slam baaaaaaad. I'm super excited, hope he's in contention on Sunday.

One thing about The Masters is you never know who is going to win it. I'm calling Spieth. I don't care who wins. This is the best tournament hands down. The best part about this year is that I will be there for the Wednesday practice round. Thanks @missitnoonan for scoring the tickets.

Spieth has put six yards on his drives compared to last year (289 to 295), which is really good. One thing that's always concerned me about him is that he didn't hit far enough, which I thought was the reason Bubba ended up taking him down at the Masters. Good to see he's improving his length.

It could be a lefty thing too...Mike Weir won there and he drives the ball 190 lol

Surprised more people not picking DJ. The way he's been playing and the fact he should be able to eat up those par-5s, I see a good week for him next week. The only question with him is the short game. He was destroying Augusta last year through 27 holes and then his short game became a disaster. However, so far this year, his short games seems so much more crisp.

I put 25 bucks apiece on DJ and Spieth and a small token on Louis Oosthuizen, so here's hoping for a good week from all three of those guys.

Oosthuizen is a good pick. If he's in form, he could really do some damage.

You're welcome @CarlSpackler . I was super stoked to have my name drawn for the Wednesday round. Par 3 contest, skipping contest on 16 - it dosn't get any better than that. Unless of course Fuzzy picks me this time to hit a ball at Amen corner #12. He picked a guy directly next to me in 1988 and then the guy hooked it in the woods. That could have been me!

Ah yes. I shall have some good pics. I can take the camera in Wednesday, but no phone. Hopefully I can talk my wife into parting with her super camera with big zoom lens and rapid fire thingy.

Grade?!!! Wait. I graduated (muffled sound) years ago.

Oh, yeah, pics and a good write-up. It might be worth starting your own thread.

Definitely ... This thread will be so active all week that it'll get buried in an hour. For sure, create a dedicated thread so we can always easily keep referencing your photos. And don't take shitty blurry photos like SOME PEOPLE I know.

Pardon the Interruption totally duped me with their fake Tiger Woods April Fool's story today.  I was like WTF IS GOING ON HERE.  Fell for it.

I must've missed it.

What fake TW story are you referring to?

It said that Tiger Woods had requested to be the first off the tee on both Thursday and Friday morning so he wouldn't be on television.  My first thought actually was that Tiger would never request such a thing, but maybe his agent did.  I was all ready to ****ing roast Tiger for this if it was true, but of course it wasn't.

Enjoy Carl. My wife won tickets and we are taking our fathers. We're driving from Michigan Saturday and going to play 18 in NC Sunday and then play The Landing on Reynolds Plantation on Lake Oconee GA on Monday. My father always wanted to take his father and his dad died at a young age, so it means so much to experience this with him and my FIL. I guess we'll all be able to check one off the Bucket List.
