Your pick for the Masters

Prognosticate away.

Based on those picks its either tiger or the remainder of the field.

 

[bullitt]

I like adam scott or kuchar.

I like to see how guys are playing after day one before I predict. The Masters is such a special tournament and with that you sometimes get some guys off their game and you see that after day one.

Can't wait.

Michelle Wie.

Do they still burn crosses in Augusta?

 

[shack]

I like adam scott or kuchar.

Also good choices but I was limited to 10 options.

Stricker, Schwarzel, Westwood were other considerations.

I picked Bradley, but the field looks pretty good.

jack and tiger both had 14 majors at age 37 (tiger's age now)

I suspect Jack did not win zero between age 32 and 37. I just checked and he won (depending on his birth date) 6 or 7 majors between 32 and 37.

So he has done much better than Tiger as he got older and worked his way through his 30's.

interesting. tiger at 1 under four shots back

I wonder if Lindsay Vonn will show up at the Masters?

Nice to see Crenshaw out there. He had a nice ace in the par 3 tourney, good to see the old guys still there.

Speaking of old guys, Freddie is doing pretty darn good for the first day. Hopefully he can keep it going.

If she does, it could cause Tiger to go downhill. Ba dum dum.

 

[dirkd101]

Good for Weir, ending the day even. I hope he can at least do well in the tourney and get to Saturday.

For the first time in its history the Masters assessed a one stroke penalty to a player for playing "too slow". The player just happens to be Asian. Suspicious?

 

[dunkula]

not just a player...14 year old from China ( youngest ever to make the cut @ Augusta )

Yes, even more suspicious that he was the only player to ever be assessed a penalty for "playing too slow". What the hell is "playing too slow" anyway? Is there a 24 second clock like in basketball?

 

[dirkd101]

I believe you have 40sec to make your shot, after addressing the ball. It looks chintzy on them, but tradition and all...

 

[dirkd101]

An interesting second day. Many first day leaders falling off and many of those behind charging to the front. It's amazing how the change in the course can cause a problem with their game. Many guys were lucky to be even after a few holes, with many 2 strokes over.

Poor old Weir didn't make the cut, but he didn't play that poorly either. He's had this rib injury for a while now and has been bitten by the injury bug the past few years. Hopefully he can get better and continue to play some good golf.

Before all the tiger haters say he should have been dq'd learn the rules.

In the past yes he would have been disqualified for signing an improper card. A year or two ago the pga tour changed the rule on post round penalties. This was due to increasing videos and hd, where viewers or people would re look at things after the round. The tour thought disqualification was too harsh when someone did not knowingly break a rule. If it was intentional the player would be disqualified.

This was a pga tour rule. If you followed golf instead of only being tiger haters you would know this.
