I may very well be mistaken.

If so, this may be the first time in TST prediction contest history that the winner has come down to the second choice.

Wacko Zacho couldn't have been a first pick last year.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

DJ would be well served to take an AimPoint class and get fitted for an Edel putter.

I get the sense that he's no intellectual giant and AimPoint would just be too complicated for him.  Paulina and he are not dissecting Proust in their downtime.

Lee Westwood, J.B Holmes, Matthew Fitzpatrick, Soren Kjeldsen, and Daniel Berger will be pleased as they will be invited back in 2017!

I'd rather that than having to change the channel as Nantz and company go crazy goo-goo gah-gah over Spieth like you know they would if he won.

Nope, I'm pretty happy with Willett. Hasn't hit many loose shots over the week, has played some tight golf and putted seriously well.

Kind of reminds me of Kevin Hayes of the NY Rangers.

Because winning back-to-back wouldn't have been a big deal?

Lee Westwood is going to remain the king of back-door top-10 finishes in majors.

No issue with Willett winning it. He has been an up and comer the past few years they have talked about him. I just hope if he is gonna win, he stays around. I don't want no Trevor Immelman 2.0

That's it, Willet is the Masters Champion, question will be if Spieth holds on for 2nd.

For you, perhaps. Willet has played well, and it's been close. That's what I come for.

Yeah, he did look kind of foolish trademarking Immelmania.

Had CBS, TGC, etc. not force fed and been so over the top with him since in and around when he won the John Deere, it might not bug me.

But it does.

And his slow play bugs me, too.

Yeah, and I expect he'll be pretty happy with it!

Now Jordan needs an eagle on #18 -- unlikely -- to force a playoff.

    • Day 329 - More full swings, focusing on the finish. Started with half swings, finished with full swings.
    • Day 146: mirror work again. Working on the same backswing stuff. 
    • Didn’t get back to a decent routine in November and December as planned.  I really need to get up earlier and get to the 7 am CrossFit class… but I’m too tired. Right now getting in 3 times a week. Going to get some swing speed exercises in too.  January-April should be Monday - Friday, load up on supplements too.
    • “The stuff legends are made of…” 😁 As long as OEM’s keep replacing them…. But if it cracks 2 years in, you’re screwed on the warranty. the Cobra Dark Speed driver gets rave reviews.  Haven’t heard of breakage issues.  Taylormade now came out with the Qi35 heads.  Absolutely stunning but it’s a carbon fiber sole as well as the face and crown.  I guess we’ll see.
    • Day 71 - 2024-12-10 I spent three minutes trying to figure out when someone started calling me Yoda, even though he remains the only person to call me Yoda… then in a hotel room, I spent ten minutes while watching the 2019 Masters on YouTube (the TV doesn't have Golf Channel) working on my wrist conditions.
