Spieth makes a quad 9 on 15!

Maybe a quad is his thing now at Augusta. ?

They just announced that DJ is withdrawing.  Not sure its completely official, but that's what I head on the masters.com simulcast from Amen Corner

And I see I'm late to this particular party, paying more attention to golf than to this thread.  My bad

Get your priorities straight Dave   :-D

A really intriguing day of golf - McIlroy really needs a break or two and just looks rattled, Day and Rose looking good, some surprises near the top of the leaderboard and Spieth doing a repeat of last year. Not my favourite golfer by a long way, but I gained so much respect for Jordan watching him bounce back again from a real shocker of a hole. 

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

What's in the bag: Callaway X2 Hot Driver, Titleist 915F 3 wood, X2 Hot 3 Hybrid, 3, 5-AW Apex Pro irons, 54*, 58* Cleveland RTX, Odyssey Versa 1 Putter

I don't think Rory will ever win a green jacket until he fixes his putting, and I'm just not sure that will ever happen. You need to be a solid putter to win on this course, especially a solid putter from within 10 feet, and he's anything but.

Part of the Masters tradition is to show 1 minute of golf for every 30 minutes of coverage.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

NBC is the best when it comes to golf. Would really like to see the Masters go to that network but not sure they ever will. It's no wonder all the top golf journalism talent is going over there, such as feherty and tirico.

15 is eating everyone's lunch today

And Rae's Creek on 13. Normally those two holes are pretty benign so it's an interesting change!

Now Rahm and Rory as well... Everyone coming up short!

Edit - I stand corrected, McIlroy got lucky and birdies!

No one has ever won the Masters with a triple on their scorecard. Phil came close in 2012 by making up for his early round triple with three straight birdies on 18 heading into Sunday. His final round triple at  number four blew his chance. Giving up four shots on a par five, JS is going to need to eagle out on 15 to even have a chance, assuming he's under par collectively on the other 17 holes.

    • No, hitting into a hazard that is supposed to be avoided and is designed to be penalizing is not the same as hitting it into the middle of the fairway.   You are penalized because you hit it into a hazard. Based on your logic let's say you hit it into a red staked penalty area and you could normally play it but it's in temporary casual water from rain. Would you expect a free drop from there too??
    • They could have declared it GUR, sure. It is. It's temporary water, and as I said before, an abnormal course condition (ACC). That's what rule 16 is about — ACCs. No, a bunker ≠ the middle of the fairway. You are penalized because you hit it into a bunker. As for the rest… let's stick to the topic. Yep.
    • It's not dumb. It's dumb to randomly allow a free drop that provides an advantage you don't deserve. And your committee had the option of determining it GUR. Did you talk to them?
    • A sand trap is not supposed to have 3 inches of water in it. To me that’s temporary, casual water. Just like if your ball lands in a deep rain puddle in the middle of the fairway. I would have gladly hit out of any spot in that bunker. I understand that it’s a different rule. I just think it’s a dumb rule. You are penalized because it rained.  Here’s what I think is the dumbest rule in golf, and all sports for that matter - professionals playing for millions of dollars in a tournament have to carry around a little pencil and scorecard to keep their score and sign it, when there are big scoreboards all over the course and on tv. Can you imagine the Knicks losing because they didn’t count their score correctly? Like I said, I love the game, but it’s time to move into the 21st century already.
