If you guys HAD to place a bet on one of these two players, which way would you go:

  • Pat Perez at 150:1
  • Fred Couples at 300:1

Last I saw, these are the current odds for these players.  I would take Boom Boom twice if I could...

Perez, easy decision imo.

3 beers, no tip.  Thankfully, I typically have more than $12 so I tip generously.

Also a big difference between a warm wind when it's 80 degrees and a cold, heavy wind when it's 50 degrees with a wind chill in the 30s. It's a much more difficult wind to play in when it's cold. We saw the players struggle in the cold wind a lot in 2007 when it was brutal. We saw it really bad at St. Andrews two years ago. So I'd be willing to wager that if the weather forecast doesn't change, there may not be many scores, if any, in the red on Thursday.

Can you talk a bit more about this ? I don't expect those temps, even with windchill to be in the 30s, maybe high 40s early. Never mind that, can you tell me if at the corner, does it sit much lower ? Are they downhill shots, thus, the player can look at the flag all he wants, the wind is UP at the ball height ?

Try to pull up masters Trak on Google Earth and you get a masters CARTOON Picture more or less. Shows you how corrupt things are and if you have money, you can hide whatever you want... Thanks for the comments in advance... Love THE MASTERS... it is just an awesome place and hopefully I will get there next year or the year after...

So @jsgolfer is at the practice round today. They were just evacuated for the second time. Didn't realize this but that means they made them all get in their cars and drive away. Ugghh..

Hope they get to go back.

His comments will have the effect of forcing every player to be careful to mark and replace properly.

Nope. Just the popular and/or leaders. The others are safe. Which is fair and logical so call ins should be allowed forever. Makes sense.

I feel for those folks with Wednesday tickets now that the day has been rained out, but the weather looks good the rest of the week!

It leaves a bitter taste in everyone's mouth when this happens in sports. There is no reason that they could not refund money other than pure greed... We all understand business, how it works, especially if you own a business.. In this situation, anything more than the money they need to cover expenses should be paid back in GOOD FAITH... which is the thing missing these days...

NBA owners should have to do it too. I have to buy tickets to see Cleveland vs Miami in advance, months in advanced because they are pricey and might sell out, my kid is dying to see LeBRON and the owner chooses to sit him, Cleveland can pay me back the difference of his value. Just bogus and is ruining the experiences for what, another yacht...

Sorry, off my soap box... Enjoy the masters...

I think a good thought. Wish market economics would force them to...

Just go back  from the disaster practice round/par 3 tournament. But you cann't beat Mother Nature.  Got to see a few holes before the first evacuation and then walked a little of the course before the second evacuation, just as we reached the Par 3 tournament.  So I got to see Rory hit a few shots on 16, along with Sergio and then saw DJ hit his drive on 13 into the. Pine straw next to me and them hit a 6 iron onto the green,  Saw a couple other players out, but no player came back after the first evacuation.  And the Par 3 tournament, not sure anyone got in more than a couple of holes.

Gorgeous place, hope I can get back.

The Pimento Cheese sandwich rocks!  Had two of them, $1,50/each.  $5 for a beer, spent way too much in the golf souvenir shop, but what the hell.

    • I’m not sure I agree. It’s just what the majority find more entertaining. Most people prefer women’s gymnastics over men in the Olympics. How much hype is there with the men’s compared to the women’s? I bet you can rattle off several big names in women’s gymnastics and only a handful of men. Women’s tennis …same thing. And sure enough, their purses are the same. However, WNBA, awful…LPGA, not near as much interest than PGA. Don’t think it’s really that complicated IMO.

    • Hence your Avatar!😜 I drink a lot of water during the day if I’m playing or exercising. I get cramps otherwise.
    • If you walk up to a food/drink kiosk at Magic Kingdom and ask the person for a cup of "magic water" they will give you a small cup of Sprite for free. About 3 fingers worth. They don't sell alcohol at MK anymore so I go over to one of the courses while she hangs out there. 
    • This isn't some kind of natural fact. It's a lot more complicated than this implies.
