Masters Tourney Thread
 

No Martha Burk this year that I've seen, the old men with the money weathered the storm.

Rain delayed first round, it's the year of the rain delay on the PGA Tour.

Jack's playing after all.

Go Tiger!

I went with him and Ernie in group A in Yahoo Fantasy Golf. Tough call this year, choosing between the big 4, plus the others in that group like Adam Scott, and Goosen.

I can't wait for the weekend!!

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

I'm in a pool where you pick 20 players from a list of 75. Score it by money winnings. It's good because, while everyone has the top 4 players, there is enough variation in the last 16 to make it a game.

Unless he fixes whatever's been wrong with him the past few tournaments, what with missing 3-footers and such, it could be a long weekend in Augusta.

The way Tiger's been for most of this year, if he starts off with a solid round, nobody's stopping him.

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

Rain delayed already...

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

My Picks:

Ernie Els
Shigeki Maruyama
Stuart Appleby
Fred Couples
John Daly

These guys rule!

No, it's not doctored at all.
In fact, wasn't that the same sign or guy that got up and spoke to all the feminists, and then held up that sign?

Re: Masters Tourney Thread

" What indeed, since the city, county and state police detail outnumbered protesters by at least 3-to-1. Fortunately, the only time they were needed was to move a man carrying signs that read, ''Iron My Shirts'' and ''Make My Dinner'' from in front of the NCWO stage."

I don't know about that, but from everything I read about the protest, there were a lot of Augusta Natl supporters who were quite vocal. So I don't think it's doctored.

BTW, all of my Masters bets are in this thread. Opinions on them are welcome.

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

I also think this is the year for Tiger's 4th.

But I'm more excited to see this in Hi-Def - haven't yet experienced a golf tournament in Hi-Def yet!

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

Neither have I. The Masters should be great for hi def. I am working on HDPW to get a huge high def tv. Maybe by next year I will be watching the Masters in style. Tell us how it is please. Any recs re: high def appreciated too.

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

Go PHIL!

Back to back, and coming off a nice win at the Classic...he's got big MO on his side.

So does Jose Maria Olawokandi-Johnson-Smith too.

I pick Phil at -7

Re: Masters Tourney Thread

Re: Masters Tourney Thread

Gonna be an early weekend for my man David. Too bad...almost painful to watch knowing what'd going to happen every time...

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

I'm waiting for the "Official Masters Thread" -- until I see that I have no comment.

Tiger putts it into the water
 

Friend just called said Tiger was putting for an eagle and it went into the drink. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
Heard the greens were gonna be fast this year but come on.

Tim

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

Casper shoots 106. Worst score in Masters history by 11 shots. That's just hilarious.

Re: Tiger putts it into the water

This is correct. I have a copy of the original pic up here in my cubicle at work, it just says Iron My Shirt. Still funny though, of course.

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

can someone explain to me how a guy on the pga tour can be +34. what is this guy's story?

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

He's not a current PGA player. The Masters once again allows some past champions to come back and play. Casper is a past champion.

When you win the Masters, you get a lifetime exemption. Casper won in 1970. Casper is 74 years old, and he won't give it up. He prefers the public embarassment. The sad part is, he won 51 tournaments in his career, and got way too little credit for them.

Now he'll be the butt of a lot of jokes, and he deserves it.

Re: Masters Tourney Thread
 

I think he shot his age.

Re: Round 2
 

Looks like play might be getting underway again soon.. the live video from Augusta shows squeegee teams on some holes. The galleries seem to be out from under shelter for the most part, too [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Re: Round 2
 

Play suspended for the day. 8 am tomorrow. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
