That putt by Tiger on #17 :-(  

I hope he practices the short putts tonight.  I'm not the biggest fan of changing practice in response to 1-2 rounds but ... 

He spent a long time putting yesterday after his round.

I want to comment on the putting but I can't do it respectfully or without using a word that I don't like using.

He's not even mediocre

84th out of 87 inside 5 feet

Gah, these putts inside 20ft are giving him nothing today.

Hopefully he reverts to the mean over the weekend.

That's just insanely bad.  He'd be running away with this tournament if he were even halfways decent!

Tigers reward for missing those last two birdie putts? He gets to play with Poulter tomorrow.

I thought we outlawed cruel and unusual punishment in this country.

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

Many here most likely know this already, but it is worth repeating .........

Over 20 years ago, then-CBS announcer Peter Oosterhuis observed that in certain situations a putt must be struck firmly enough to hold its line, and that a player must commit to making such a stroke.

In the many decades of watching the Masters on TV, I can sometimes tell when a ball is struck that it won't go in, and it doesn't matter who the player is or how experienced they are.

It is no surprise that this same sort of thing has happened a few times already this year. Expect a few more misses blending in with the makes this weekend.

Tiger is where he should be. Sure he's missed a lot of makable putts he would have made in his prime, but he's also made some bombs and caught some breaks. In the end, he's at where he should be...-6 and one off the lead. On to the weekend.

As much as I'd like to see him win, there's a ton of talent above him and around him. It's going to be a challenge. I do think two or three guys will break out from the pack tomorrow and get double digits under par.

Pretty sporty leaderboard. If Tiger wins this year, he will have to earn it. I don’t see the all the guys around him crumbling like the field used to do.

And I agree with ChrisP. He’s where he should be.

Tiger should say to Poulter..’ well here it is...just you and me.’

What a great Masters so far! Poor Rory...gotta feel like the kid with a cast on watching all his friends play through the window. 

Really would like to see Poulter collapse and Molinari to card a big number. Just to settle him down a bit.

Tiger needs to birdie number one tomorrow. I feel it. That’ll spark the big cat to stay in his groove.

    • Day 549, May 4, 2024 After lessons and working with Natalie, hit some balls for awhile. Just backswing stuff. Forgot about the slightly shorter stuff, though I'm sure it was as they were only about 75% speed with brief pauses.

    • Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.
    • I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.    
    • The last time I played Maxfli balls, Dunlop was still making them. How long ago was that? Mostly, though, I used to play Top Flites (original 336 dimple model) when Spalding was still making them. Now I play the Pro V1x. Last time that I ordered some, Titleist was still making them. Let's see how long that lasts.
