I'd hear it for being gone for 4 days. It wouldn't matter what I did on Sunday.

I'm really hoping that Tiger plays Sunday afternoon. This week always reminds me of when I was on a family vacation to Florida when Tiger won in 1997. Hanson mmm-bop and Notorious Big Hypnotize were the top two songs on the radio / MTV. A lot has changed since then. I am throwing $20 on my long-shots this week. Berger and Chappell. Good luck all.

Stay tuned. I may not get %*+ but I'm sure I'll get the rolls. Followed by, "who do you think your kidding? You'll be knocked out in 15 minutes". LOL

Masters week is literally one of my favourite weeks of the year. It really should be a holiday like Christmas - the week at work leading up to the holiday you do diddly squat but think about having a week off and relaxing.

Wouldn't that be amazing?!

 

But, it isn't, so I'll have to resort to watching it on the TV at work while recording and re watching it at night.

 

I'll be knockin back some tins and a few glasses of red while doing so.

 

Cheers!!

I'm deeply touched that they're starting the Masters on my Birthday. Such an honor right?

 

Haha

But it does make for a great way to start my day eh?

 

Winner?

 

I would venture to say this will be the deepest field EVER assembled, and that at least 15, perhaps 20 players have a legit shot at the win.

 

I want tiger or Phil (cuz I'm old)

I've bet on Justin tho

 

Whichever way it goes tho- we will all be blessed to watch it go down!

 

GO HAWKS!

Hope Tiger wins by 7 strokes to silence the haters once and for all.

If that happens it might turn the entire sports world on its head. It would be a heck of a story.

I'll watch most of the event. For me, watching the back nine on Sunday at The Masters is the greatest sporting event of the year - better than the Super Bowl, the World Cup, the World Series or anything else.

 

IMHO everyone who loves golf should try to attend The Masters once, there's no place quite like it. As good as the broadcast is, you can't fully appreciate the beauty, the scary green contours, elevations and atmosphere without seeing it first hand. Really enhances watching after you've seen it in person. The greens are unbelievable, you don't quite get how extreme they are through TV.

No doubt it is a magical place. It's been called sacred grounds by the locals. I lived there for thirteen years and went to the tournament many times. I lived a mile down the road and always enjoyed Masters week. My Landlord had badges that she would allow me to use. She was old and never went so I would ask a golfing pal and we spent the whole week attending the tournament and then playing golf in that awesome city. Truly special to say the least!

About 15 years ago, a friend won some tickets to the Monday practice rounds, so we drove down to Augusta. At that time, they allowed cameras on the grounds during practice, so I had about 20 rolls of film with me and had no intention of taking pics of any golfers, mostly wanted pictures of the course. Wouldn't you know it, the Monday rounds were rained out and we didn't even get inside the gate. Some day, I will make it back down there.

Rose has to be a top 10 lock for just about everyone. I know he is for me. Kuch is also mr backdoor top 10 so I would be very surprised if he's outside the top 15. 

I think JT is the man to beat at the moment but Spieth will be my pick here for a long time to come because well.... He's JS

 

And I may have said he'd have no shot in hell back when he finished T2 behind Bubba  :lol:   :ph34r:

Not sure about surprise. They are always right there. I think it would be more of a surprise if they weren't in the last group come Sunday.

Either one no surprise.

Definitely agree with you - even if Spieth isn't playing as well overall this year (had a good showing last week), with his record, you can't bet against him at this point.

 

I think Mickelson is coming in playing well too - even though his finish was higher last week, if you take away two holes that he tripled - he finishes at 16 under and a top 5ish finish.

Just read that Phil and Tiger are in a group with Couples and Pieters for a practice round.  That would be something to see, wouldn't it?  Phil's notorious for the Tuesday games, and grouped with Tiger....

 

From what I understand, Tiger made eagle on 13, 15 and birdied 16 today in the practice round. I hope Phil and the boys brought their check books  ;)
