I'm sure the Augusta National Tournament Committee has the ability to control how hard the wind blows...they control when the azaleas bloom, what the commentators say, how many t.v. commercials run pe

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.

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.

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.

I'm pretty sure SVP just called William McGirt- "Mike" at the end of the Butler Cabin interview.

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.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
