NolaAuTiger 3,295 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 What's everyones thoughts on the Masters this year? IMO, this will be one of the most "amped" Masters tournaments in modern times. Tiger can actually compete again in a Major. The excitement is not as far-fetched in light of his performances this year. Rory is also playing well and so is Bubba. Also, we can't forget about Phil. Lots of big names. It'll be a fun ride!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
augolf1716 21,096 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Master's is just impossible to pick a real favorite imo. Yes the normal names will be around but usually 3-5 lower rated players as well as foreign players. It is a wonderful tournament and god mean for a golf course to be located there. Heaven on earth just like Pebble Beach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathergeakal 283 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I think Tiger will just make the Cut, I wonder how Jordan is going to do, I hope he wins. Phil is also getting hot at the right time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnacle 9,064 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 23 hours ago, augolf1716 said: I would take the field against Tiger No-brainer. Not saying he can't or won't win. He's shown enough over the past 3 weeks to convince me that he can win. Still too inconsistent off the tee. There are some spots on that course where you can miss off the tee, but there's such a premium on distance-control at Augusta that playing from the rough or pine-straw can make birdies virtually impossible. Although, his short game is sharp is ever and he's still very long off the tee. Gotta say, one of my favorite parts about the Masters is seeing some of the older guys pop up on the leader board on Thursday and sometimes Friday. All the sudden you look up and someone like Ben Crenshaw is sitting in 2nd place. He was only in his 50s, but watching Freddy make a run at it a few years ago was one of my favorite Masters ever.

Barnacle 9,064 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Looks like @NolaAuTiger beat me to it this year, but it is that time of year again. Masters week is officially underway. This truly is my favorite week of the year. For those who weren't paying attention yesterday, Ian Poulter earned his spot in the Masters field with a clutch win in extra holes at the Houston Open. I've never been a big Poulter fan. He's a flashy sort of guy, and he's played his part in providing the U.S. with some pretty tough losses in the Ryder cup through the years. Still, I rooted for him yesterday. He posted a score of +1 on Thursday, and then followed with rounds of 64, 65, and 67. It was his first stroke play victory ever on the PGA tour. This was his putt on 18 to tie and force a playoff: Back to the Masters, anyone seen the new pro shop? http://2018.masters.com/en_US/watch/2018-04-02/152262922319837.html How about a Monday tradition? Finally. It's MONDAY at the MASTERS Rory on No. 1 this morning The joy of walking through the gates (Tennessee fan can kiss my ass though) BUBBA blasting some quartz at No. 10. Always like his chances at Augusta. More to come throughout the week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnacle 9,064 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Fowler. A name we've seen in contention several times early on Sunday. Personally, I love Rickie. He just can't ever seem to put together 4 solid rounds. Another name we've seen in contention...some say he'll never win at Augusta. I'm not one of them. I'm not expecting much out of Sergio this year. He's on cloud 9 - but with all the distractions, I wonder if he's ready to win again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the guys I root for are American, but there are some great international players who I would be happy to see win. It was a lot of fun to see Sergio win last year. Jason Day is one player that comes to mind. Hideki Matsuyama is another. I've always liked Adam Scott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
