The Masters

Who's winning this year? Surely not Tiger. He's not even competing.

I'll go with Speith again.

I hope Rory wins. I'll even except another win by Lefty. 

Just send all the bad vibes you can muster up to Dustin Johnson. 

I would be fine with another Lefty win as well.

 

DJ is super hot lately - #1 in the world rankings - but he's just about the most boring idiot on the tour.

I'm for Rory too.

What's your opinion of the shenanigans in the LPGA event yesterday Slacker? There has to be a statute of limitations on that crap. 

Lame rules that slow down play. 

boring, boring to play, worse to watch

It's not cornhole.

Idiot move of the year

 

LPGA allowing viewer to change the outcome of a match 

I love being bored at those 7am tee times on the weekends. Watching golf not a big fan, unless I am trying to take a nap, better than nightquill

Is Trump playing or going? He seems to love golf.  ;)

Context is everything of course:,

Obama's final tally: 333 rounds of golf as POTUS, 8 years x 52 weeks = 416 weeks, so once every 8.4 days.....

By Ryan  January 20, 2017, 9:05 pm

The 44th president often spent his leisure and vacation time on the golf course, especially during his second term in office.According to CBS News White House Correspondent Mark Knoller, Obama played 333 rounds as president. Obama's last round came on December 31 while on vacation in Hawaii. Knoller tweeted it was Obama's 46th round of his final year in office.Obama averaged about 41 rounds a year, but he never came close to Presidents Woodrow Wilson or Dwight Eisenhower, who were estimated to have played 1,200 and 800 rounds, respectively.

If you were going to the Masters, what would your viewing strategy be?  I think I would have to get there stupid early and sit in that section behind number 12 tee where I could watch number 11, 12 and the tee shot on 13.  I would sit there for a chunk of the day, and then go check out 13, 15 and 16 for a bit.

Amen, schwa

Play suspended due to inclement weather.

Fowler has been playing well lately, but DJ is so long off the tee

I take Fowler to wear the green on Sunday

Is snedecker ever gonna win one?

 

Ill take him and molinari....

 

 

Going to be windy tomorrow and Friday. Making the cut will mean who's best in the wind.

 

DJ fell down flight of stairs at rental home today...his Masters appearance is questionable

Online link video starts @ 915

 

Jack and Gary just teed off in the annual start....minus the great one....

 

Arnie will be watching down all wknd....who has the biggest "army" out on tour right now? Ill change my picks to Rory or Ricky....w a lil help from above

Looks like it might be Garcia's year. 

Charlie Hoffman, -7, holy shit.

Thought this was a 73 thread

Rooting for Couples to have a good round and make the cut...+1 yesterday and tees off about 1pm (est) today...

Surprised to see all the LOVE for my boy Rory here! I figured after he came out in support of Donald that people would back off of him. Don't forget to root for Els as well, as he is a big fixture at Mar-a-Lago too. 

Wow...theyre set up for great wknd...

Watch out for Speith.

Watch out? I picked him to win in the 2nd post in the thread.

 

>>Surprised to see all the LOVE for my boy Rory here!

I had no idea we had someone from Ireland posting here - neve rmind Rory's parent. Very cool!

 

>>Surprised to see all the LOVE for my boy Rory here! I figured after he came out in support of Donald that people would back off of him.

Rory said Thursday said he would think twice about playing a round of Golf with Donald Trump again.

You may be thinking of Jordan Spieth, he is a hardcore Trump supporter and not from the UK.

Go Ricky Fowler!

>>You may be thinking of Jordan Spieth, he is a hardcore Trump supporter and not from the UK.

The "hardcore" Trump supporter. Seriously?

lol

They are ALL Republicans who make a shitton of money and want to see their taxes lowered.

 

Please give us the names of the liberal golf professionals:

 

Spieth ON A Roll...............

Is It True they pipe in The Bird Chirps at Augusta ?  anyone know ?

Bye Bye Hoffman on Sunday.......

One of the waitresses got hold of a microphone and is interviewing Jordan Speith. WTF Augusta???

After watching Rose play the back nine, hard to bet against the guy.  Spieth will be very fun to watch tomorrow.  

Adam Scott snuck back in today. He knows how to close here as well 

Big BIG Sunday Ahead Indeed ! Can't Wait !

Agree completely on tomorrow.

I wouldn't count out Charles Schwartzel, he's an up and comer who could make a move. You can never count out Lefty and in spite of being a party monster Fred Couples will still make some noise tomorrow at age 57. Then of course Sergio Garcia could make it happen one year and don't overlook Rckie Fowler, although Lee Westwood is the one I really think everyone should keep their eye on. Naturally, any time Matt Kuchar is within 6 shots of the lead on the last day he is in contention. Brett Snedekr and Jason Day can NEVER be counted out and Lerry Mize will definitely have the low score in the clubhouse at some point and have the leaders quaking in their golf shoes. 

Can't imagine Speith blowing it again though. 

 

Best day of golf that wasn't on a Sunday in a very long time. Tomorrow is going to be special.

Gotta like the Garcia - Rose pairing.

Doh! I forgot to switch shits not given when March Madness ended.wink

Lee westwood will fade before front nine is over...

 

Guy is great......overseas

Looks like an exciting Sunday. Shoot 63, Rory!

Its Sergios time to shine...now or never

HERE COMES FREDDIE COUPLES!!!!!!

Good work on that cup repair. 

Rickie Fowler should be gutted with a knife for wearing that clothing on such sacred ground as Augusta. Fucking millennials. 

I have never rooted for Sergio Garcia to win anything, but I am rooting for him today.

Thru 4: It's between Serg and Rose.

So far Serg is in tune and he birdied 1 on Sunday, putt on 3 was solid!

Rickie and Hoffman are ot of sync on the greens, you could see it with Hoffman yesterday.

Dark Horse: Scott!

 

I don't know what's worse, Rickie's getup or the olympic ring tattoo.

 

The graphic said Serg was 5 under for the first three holes. That means he's 3 under for the last 15. Look for him to fade.

Speith doesn't have that of killer confidence look he had the last two days.

Rose has wobbled but scrambled for pars. This could be his day. After the first couple of holes I'll say him or Fowler.

Fowler is already starting to fade putt on 5 and now tee shot on 6

None of the leaders are playing well. This is the kind of year someone could come out of left field. Was it Casey who had 5 straight birdies?

Arnie is waving his wand from above, Seve too and im sure they laughing......they will decide who wins and who loses this year...no doubt...its out of the golfers hands

I'm going with Speith or Rose.

Sergio wants it but I don't think he can break his curse.

Front: Swung to Serg, swung to Rose

Back: They both just AWFUL off 10 tee lol....AWWWWWFUL

Well if Arnie's ghost is controlling the scoreboard he's not going to let an English or Mexican dude win we all know that. Or the nazi

KUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUÜÙÚUÜÜUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH

Kuchar ACE ! AWESOME ! Gives THE BALL To A Kid !!

Serg is getting a little wild.....

>>>Gives THE BALL To A Kid !!

At least someone is thinking about the children.

Kuchar is a big Phish fan I remember seeing him at Coventry it's pretty obvious who Arnie is backing.

So it's the English guy, the Mexican, who's actually from Espana or...the nazi, who's that again?

 

Garcia - Chewing Nails ?

 

Love CBS doing like 1 minute Commercials and then Back To The Action !

That's not CBS, it's the ANGC that makes that decision.

thx Hank i did not Know that Anyway getting a Green Jacket is Most Awesome whomever The Winner !

CBS is too busy taking care of the best "fluffer" in the biz...........Jim Nance.....:) hah! I made a funny.

Rose vs Garcia = Blood Bath Coming Up ! #TheMasters

HUGE ! Garcia !!

Game on!! 

All tied up, 3 to play.  Awesome stuff here.

Wild

Question: which of the last 3 holes will Garcia choke on? 

Observation: This ending is not going to go over well with Number 1 golfer, our President. How long until we have a fifth major, the Trump Open, which will only be for players who are real Americans. From the USA.

Oh wow......Serg 16 putt.......wow.....

What AWWWFUL puttts on 18.

Bad misreads back to back!

What part of "KEEP IT IN THE HOLE" DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND!

Jim Nance would have nailed that putt on 18 I'm not sure what Sergio was thinking there oh hey there's Kuchar 

 Rose v Garcia = Playoff #TheMasters '17

I'll tell you what Garcia's little chippy there is no bogie if you know what I mean 

Extra Augusta! I love sudden death at the Masters. 

What's with the golf carts? They made a big stink when that guy with MS wanted to use a golf cart but these two immigrants get to Uber it back to the first hole? What the hell is going on here???

Extra Augusta!  <<<

WOOHOO Slacker !

 

Sunday.

WHAT ! 2 guys Masters....

They could both screw these putts up again.

Same type fo read...keep it in the hole.

Lets see if they learned anything.

Never a doubt....

 

 

;)

 S Garcia ! Congrats Masters Green Jacket pga tour Augusta.

Congrats Sergio!  On Seve's 60th, no less.  Bravo.  Golf claps and huzahs.

A Masters where someone won, instead of everyone just fading away.

The swings back and forth between Serg and Rose.......very sublime.

Good stuff this year......even without the azaleas blooming.

Great round, really glad for Sergio. 

Sergio on charlie rose..just started

Only thing more boring than playing golf.... watching golf on TV. Maybe when I'm in my mid 60's I'll get it.

You can't hit a ball. Most people can't. It ain't easy. 

Got better shit to do than to waste a beautiful day hitting around some balls with some old white guys.

They're always better shit to do. Just keep it secret. 

>>>Great round, really glad for Sergio. 

What? Did you watch? Hardly great golf, all of the contenders, save Kuchar with his ace, really stumbled across the finish line. You can be happy for Sergio, that petulant little shit, all you want. But "great round"? No 

^Everybody drank too much before the round on Sunday.

>>Hardly great golf, all of the contenders, save Kuchar with his ace, really stumbled across the finish line.

Seriously?

Yes, Kuchar shot a nice round of 67 on Sunday - but Schwartzel, Pieters, Casey and Chappell all shot 68 - that's hardly stumbling on a Sunday at August.

Even Rose and Garcia both shot 3 under 69s on Sunday. And that Eagle on 15 was a stumble for Sergio?

Sure they both missed some putts - but it is Augusta with linoleum greens after all.

I guess you and I have a different definition of stumbling.

>>Got better shit to do than to waste a beautiful day hitting around some balls with some old white guys.

And that "better shit to do" includes opening a thread about golf and posting on a dbmb about a golf tournament? Come on. lol

Would it be more interesting if those old guys were Asian? 

 

I'd pay two hundred dollars to walk Augusta while it's empty. 

Has anyone been to St Andrews on a weekend when it's a public park? 

Totally agree , slack...which also makes me laugh at buckles posts about "misreading" the putts on 18...i dont think many that dont follow the game know exactlty what it means to putt on some of these greens...miss by a foot and it rolls 30 into a creek....lol

 

Even hd tv cant do some of the slopes on these greens, or fairways, justice

Jonas, do they let Asian players in at Augusta yet? I know it wasn't til recently that blacks were allowed. Not sure women can be memebers yet. 

 

Six is just mad mad cause is short game is straight booty.
