Huh?

Just now in the par 3 contest, he made an ace, ran down the fairway backwards in celebration, and turned his ankle badly.  It was at a crazy angle before he popped it back in.  He's still on the course, though.


Don't watch if queasy:

 

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

We are all wondering if he rolled it or popped out. It definitely looked like it could have.  Either way, he's going to be icing that thing when he's done.

That was scary to watch. Fingers crossed he didn’t just jack up his first Masters.

A lot of basketball players have some squirrelly ankles...hopefully he can work through it.

That's... why you don't run at Augusta!

Yeeooowww, I did not want to see him popping that back in but there are a lot worst things out there.

There are 3 longshots that I think are work a $3 or $4 bet on....Harman at 80/1, DeChambeau at 66/1 and Patrick Reed at 50/1. Put $5 on Reed and a few on Harman and DeChambeau. Not much, but I think those are pretty good odds for those 3.

Ouch. Worst thing was he had to “put it back” with his hand.

Is it his first?

Didn't Paul Lawrie or someone have to be stretchered out of Augusta National?

Although I've never been to ANGC, have walked some serious rolling terrain courses and see why a not trivial number of people hurt themselves.

Backwards...downhill...on wet grass...

They showed him on the next tee and his wife was looking at him with a "I'm gonna beat your a$$ when we get home" tilt.

It is. He qualified for the first three majors of the 2018 season by making it to the Tour Championship in 2017. He's played in the US Open, The Open Championship, and the PGA Championship but this will be his first Masters.

I think we can safely say that the winner of the par 3 won't win the Masters this year either.

This has probably been mentioned already, but how in the check do we watch Tiger tomorrow? You'd think he'd be in a featured group online at the very least. I'm seeing 3pm est on ESPN and then some special cameras on CBS sports.com

Wow. As someone who's had some ankle issues, I really feel for Finau.  Hopefully he didn't do much damage.

This can't be real but what did I miss with Sorenstam and trapeze?

He's in one of the two morning featured groups.

I don't know if that's real…
