Default Master Coverage

Most know, but Masters.org will have live coverage of Amen corner and several holes way beyond TV...and you can watch it at work....starting early in the am to late!

Great coverage!

Tough to pick a winner, I just hope it will be exciting come the back 9 on Sunday. From what I read the Masters committee are moving up tees this year to improve scoring on the final day, so it will be less U.S Open like in atmosphere and more like The Masters.

Furyk early leader at -6 but he is still out on the course. Phil looks lost out there...

I would never count Tiger out, though it may be a little too early to expect him back to 100% after being out almost a year. Really despite the 3 wins by Phil and Tiger this yr I don't see them being on top of their games to win this week.

let me be the first to point out that Tiger Woods won the US Open with basically NO ACL, and two stress fractors in his leg... and won it in an 18 hole playoff. Tiger can win majors at 50% healthy

So basically Tiger doesnt need to be on top of his game to win this week. He can already win the toughest major with only one leg. I'd like to see him play the British Open this year with a patch over his right eye.. just to see what happens ya know?


Phil on the other hand, is not good enough to win unless he is on the top of his game (which I dont know if he is or isnt on top of his game, he seems to be though with his record this year)

Agreed there Anti.

Tiger has looked like this on several openning rounds and would not be surprized in the least to see him at the end.

They replayed the delayed round against Demarco where he picked up 4 strokes on him to tie for the lead in 20 minutes.

Having said that, there are some crazy good scores out there now and the couse is playing more like the older days.

my humble opinion

Kenny Perry is my underdog pic

but.....................................

This sets up you know who

TW on the prowl and will probably win by more then 2 or 3 strokes

I am, as each year goes by, quickly realizing that just watching TW do what HE DOES is a part of history and I am cherishing it. I just turn the volume off

Wow, that is amazing. You can watch players do that all day during the practice round. Fans boo if they don't try one and it is now a tradition, but never seen a whole in one. Tickets are now sold by lottery. I'll post the information when it happens. If you've never been and are a golfer, a trip to Augusta is a must once in your life. I'm sure anyone that's been will agree.

Tiger will be in it, I just don't think his game is sharp enough to endure 4 full rounds of golf at Augusta right now. Nothing about him would surprise me though, my opinion is based on what I have seen of him since he has came back from surgury.

Rules of Golf.

They suck on the Harrington penalty.
The rules need to be changed.

Kev I need a ruling.
Explain why that rule exists.
It sucks big time.
