The Masters - 2021

[bens197]

Cameron Champ playing well makes me happy.  Frankly, I love seeing new names in contention.  

Saturday is going to be bonkers good.

[TBT]

Imagine if Speith hadn’t made triple on 9 yesterday and he’s left a couple of putts right in the heart of the cup.

They better watch out on the weekend

Zalatoris can flat out play. Crazy how consistently good he's been the last couple years.

Wow some big numbers that I didn't expect ; Koepka, McIlroy, Day, etc. Yikes. 

[ParFore74x]

Some good scores out there today!! Cool to see Rose hang on for the day but I think he’ll be hard pressed to keep it all weekend.  Already seeing some good names on the wrong side of the cut line too. 

[FrogginBullfish]

Matthew Wolff has been disqualified for signing an incorrect scorecard.

Not that he was making the cut anyway.

Bigger news, DJ misses the cut. kinda crazy

[FrogginBullfish]

Yeah, DJ now the 3rd defending champion in the last 5 years to miss the cut. Others were Willett and Garcia.

Other than Rose I wasn’t that excited about the first round. But I’m way more enthusiastic after the second round as the leaderboard has shaped up nicely. Looking forward to another great Masters weekend. There is no better event in sports than the back nine on Sunday at the Masters for me. I’ll be glued to the TV part of Saturday and all of Sunday!

No kidding.  Some big names packing up for the trip home.  How about Brian Harman.  He actually got a post round interview today .

I think Jordan will be there on Sunday but fall a little short.  

I think DJ has a good chance for a repeat.  Until he washed his ball on #15

I think Bryson will surprise a lot of people.  Well, he surprised me anyway.

I think Cameron Smith will seriously contend... again.

I'm picking Rory to finally get off the schneid and get the Slam.  His Masters struggles continue.

I hope Jordan continues his good play.

Cameron Smith plays well at Augusta... Look out!

Could Bryson win it all?

Justin Rose has been playing that 2nd nine pretty well the past two days, could be huge going into the weekend.

Someone better put a bunch of rocks in Zalatoris’s pockets so he doesn’t fly away in a breeze..... That dude is TINY!

WIth the way he has been playing,  hard to believe he doesn't have status on the PGA tour.  

[PMookie]

Wow. Watching the replay and Si Woo Kim loses his temper. Not smart. You’re three strokes out of first and you break a putter, then lose the temper and toss your ball in the water.

Not smart

Just a matter of time from what I’ve seen in a couple tournaments lately, he’s talented. I’d be surprised if he wins his first Masters, but he looks poised to win somewhere soon.

There are some great players at the top of the leaderboard and I think that most of us would agree that staying calm and “in the game” are definitely important right now. With so many of them playing good golf, handling the bad shots might make the difference this weekend.

Watching Rose grind back to -7 under was very impressive yesterday. I would have gone off the rails if my round started to unravel like that!

Same here. You could see the frustration on his face and he did a great job of keeping his head in it to get things turned back around. Just goes to show that a couple of bad shots don’t have to define the round. Definitely cool to watch. 

[CarlH]

Would love to see Spieth put on another jacket, but also thinking what a great story that Zalatoris would be!  Moving day should give us some interesting pairings for Sunday's round.  Si Wu Kim could make a significant move (temper not withstanding ).  Rose is always a threat when in contention.  

[TBT]

I’m predicting a Spieth/Thomas final pairing for Sunday

Watching “featured groups” on the app and I see Horschel. How does he walk miles, and miles in shoes that look like they have zero cushioning in them?

I was trying to figure out what brand they were, but they do look uncomfortable. 

I've been enjoying watching Phil work his magic around the green, that bump shot was superb.

Turns out they’re Footjoy, and it looks like there is a little cushioning in the heel.

I like the looks of them, very classy. I just couldn't see the branding and after seeing that photo, it's tiny. Thank you!

I had to look it up on Google. I was guessing G Fore or possibly an obscure expensive brand.

[ParFore74x]

I know that it has been said before but, I just wanted to say that I love the Masters app. I really appreciate having all of the options of what to watch on a lazy morning at home.

I’d like that, especially Thomas. But there isn’t anyone within 5 strokes starting today that I’d root against (there are only 3 tour players I don’t like, who’s not important). Looking forward to play today and tomorrow.

Definitely, he has talent and great composure.   I think he has the potential to be one of the greats and once he gets his first win,  I think others will come quickly

[GolfSpy_APH]

Course looks tough again today. Seems like nobody can get close to pins and when they do the putts just arn't dropping.
