I wish the Nike players would all dress exactly like Tiger each day to troll honor him.

Also those TW shoes are awesome and my back also agrees with the grandpa styled velcro closure version. :corsair:

Lol their intro video package showed Tony Finau celebrating his hole-in-one last year and cut off right before he dislocated his ankle.

I'm huge in Japan
Just got back to the hotel from Augusta National. Witnessed 3 aces today (2 on the par 3 course, 1 on #16).

The whole place is just stunning. TV doesn't do it justice at all.

All of my pictures are on a real camera and not my phone so who knows how long it will be until I pull them off and upload them somewhere...

Speaking of which, you guys have until 8:30am ET, so just under 11 hours, to get your picks in or change them.

If you have DirecTV, you can see 4K HDR coverage of Amen Corner and 15 & 16 :shroom:

"Mathman's not here." "Oh? Where is he?" "He's in the Mathroom."
Why am I not surprised at McIlroy and Spieth’s poor play so far?

EDIT: okay that was a pretty good shot by McIlroy there.

EDIT 2: Rory’s recovered nicely to get himself back in this one. I should not have doubted him!

Tiger seems to miss a late putt for par in every round he’s played recently. He could have probably ended up at -5 if he could knock in those five footers that were automatic for so long.
