The Masters - 2022

Augusta National GC announces Masters Fantasy Game for 2021 Tournament |  WJBF

Well here we are, the 2022 seasons first major of the year and the biggest event in professional golf.  The Masters is the greatest show on grass (sorry Waste Management).  The folks at Augusta National are the undisputed champions of hosting golf events; from course management to televised coverage it is top shelf.  My memories of watching this event with my Dad on b&w TV (then color...woohoo!) are still fresh in my mind.  I also recall us neighborhood kids playing whiffle-ball golf at our local park and arguing over who gets to be which player that day.

As is always the case, the field is loaded with the tours best players.  Hideki Matsuyama is expected to return to defend his title but his withdrawal from the Valero due to a neck injury adds a little drama.  Regardless, he'll certainly host the champions dinner and my money says wasabi will be somewhere on the table.  And, I'd be remiss not to mention the biggest storyline of Tiger not only showing up but planning to play.  And why wouldn't he? The worst thing that happens is he has to WD. Between he, Bryson, and Hideki the tours Physical Therapists could be busy 😆.

It's almost certain the purse will be at least $11.5m (last years booty) but many believe it will increased this year.  As of now, I've not been able to find an official statement on this - part of the events mystic perhaps? 🙂. The weather looks to be cooperating with early week scattered showers clearing out Thursday am and through the weekend. The damp conditions should leave the course a bit more vulnerable but, there are always those "mud balls" to deal with.

So who will don the green jacket this year?  Will Hideki repeat?  Will Tiger do the unimaginable and lay claim to the biggest story in sports history?  Will it be an event rookie or perhaps a long past champion?  

Don't forget to make your pick for this weeks winner https://runmypools.com/JRMPNWWF.  Good luck!

Hideki Matsuyama's Masters win will inspire his homeland

Being a Fantasy League player, I've looked at various sources for divine intervention (predictive models) in determining which players to play.  Thus far, I've found them to be not all that accurate.  Poking around the Masters website and player bio's, I noticed they too have performance predictor... IBM's Watson.  But, none that I've seen attempt to predict scoring. So for grins, I looked up all my players and noted what IBM's Watson say how they'll score in round 1. 

Zach Johnson (77)

Cameron Smith (70)

Sergio Garcia (72)

Brooks Koepka (72)

Russell Henley (68)

Harrold Varner (81)

Garrick Higgo (80)

Cameron Young (78)

Field Average (74)

Let's see how good Watson is at his profession.

If Watson gets the scores correct, I will have a pretty difficult choice to make.  Do I take the blue pill or the red pill?

I'm here in Augusta. Lots of rain and thunder tonight [Wed]. I can see the start times pushed back to ready the course. Probably both tees. Rain to quit early [by around 7am] and the rest of the week looks good though the mornings will be cold [40s]. Not good for old backs. 

So - softer greens Thur/Fri - good scoring. The weekend should firm up for a great finish.

IBM Watson needs to look for a new gig 🤣.  And of course two guys I benched (HV3 & Higgo) shot way better than projected. 😡

I had an amazing time yesterday. Saw play from 1, 7, 9, 11/12 (grandstands), 15/16 (grandstands), 17 and 18 (among others).  Watching Kisner hit his long chip at 11 was awesome. Leishman on in 2 at 15 was very cool as well. Saw Tiger's second shot on 1, finish 7, and his finish on 11 and 12. Got into the 15/16 Grandstands in a great vantage point and watched all of those fantastic afternoon groups come through. Our one and only photo from the Founders Circle below.

Another cool thing: a car stopped right behind us as we were about to leave the Founder's Circle. The window rolled down and Gary Player asked to see a mom and a super cute baby who were in line with us and leaving after their photo at the same time.  Mr. Player seemed very genuinely nice. It was a very cool experience.

For a course that isn't considered one of the toughest on tour, it's putting the field through the paces.  At this rate, -10 may get it done.  They have mentioned that several holes have been lengthened and it is playing at 7510.  What I've noticed is how much less the par 5's are getting beaten up as compared to most courses, most weeks.  Also, these greens appear to be amongst the toughest on tour... do data to support that, but it sure seems the case.

Stewart Cink get's his second ace at #16.  Think about that for a minute.  He has two aces at Augusta and I'd conservatively guess 70% of the entire MGS forum members are still eligible for the "Still Aceless" thread. 🙂

I just came on to post that "Friday is Scottie's Moving Day". You beat me to the punch...

Just turned on Golf Channel and there’s Scottie on the Range!

Good thing cause he looked awfully loose out there today 😆.  What really surprised me is that at least one or two other players didn't get closer; -5 or -6.  The course and conditions really seems to have throttled the field.  One would get on a short run, then whop, Mother Augusta dashed their mojo.  It's crazy how players go on these relatively short out-of-body runs.  I say relatively as compared to Tigers decade long reign on the field (which some argue has much to do with the field at that time... but I digress). Scotty is just flat out feeling it and has been leading into his being selected for the Ryder Cup and that, IMO, has catapulted his paly and confidence. 

These runs don't last as long these days because the degree of separation between the bulk of the field is so small. It's actually what makes watching the tour so fun for me.  I love that just about any of them can win or make a serious run at it every Sunday. 👍

I’ve got to stay with the Shane Lowry camp.  Not only do we share Irish heritage but I believe the same Dietician.

Honestly if I was tiger woods, after the first round I would have been saying to myself: "I can't believe I've got three more days of this bullshit." I have to say that it is impressive that he's still out there hoofin' it. I walked the course for the first time since last fall and my shins and my toes hurt from being jammed up against my golf shoes from walking 18 holes, that it would have been hard to talk me into playing another round the next day let alone walking it. I'm grateful for the Masters coverage on it and glad that they appreciate his draw enough to keep the cameras on him instead of trying to act like they are greater than thou and not film him everyday.
