Do you really want to know my process?

Absolutely.

Well it starts with a holla! and ends with a Creamsicle.
The catch is that it’s Georgia BBQ

Watching some of the Golf Channel coverage, Patrick Reed is hitting his irons the same vs when he won in 2018 but he's hitting 6 more fairways and ranked 1 in strokes gained putting vs 72.

I shoulda picked him. :smith:

Sergio is statistically hitting the ball better and putting better going into this Masters than when he won in 2017, according to Chamblee. :allears:

Gary Player looks like he could compete if you just let him play the shorter tees.

Dude is a freak of nature for his age. I can only hope to have his energy if I make it to 85.

Looks like the Masters.com morning featured groups are:
Bubba, Koepka, Hovland
DJ, Westwood, Strafaci (reigning US Am champ and Georgia Tech's own :smug: ) (I actually hate how slow he played during the US Am) (also he has a weird move through the ball)

Decent sized crowds. Most seems to be wearing their masks now but I wonder how they'll feel when it hits 82*F this afternoon.

I know things are firm right now and the greens are 'sorta' splotchy, as far as Augusta goes, but I'm wondering/betting on how much of that is because they're expecting rain all week they can't water or else turn them into bogs by Sunday (or Monday/Tuesday if it's delayed)

I mean good on them (I guess) for keeping it cheap, but they are nothing special. Just your generic concession stand BBQ.

Is there someplace showing the tournament? I'm watching golf channel and despite play going on, it's talking heads watching Berger on the range.

I brought the 48in hd that my wife uses to stream her yoga classes up from the workout room up to my 'office' and have it set up as a third monitor.

Thanks. TV said live coverage of the masters, but golf channel is live FROM the masters.

Edit: and, already muted. Did you know that literally every player has the game to do well at Augusta?

"really the level of respect they show to"

A.) The tournament
B.) Former champions
C.) Their golf shot
D.) The hole locations
E.) The History
F.) The Tradition
G.) Their family
H.) To Each Other
I.) The 'environment here'

Is Unmatched. I mean. If you REALLY think about it it, isn't it?

What’s everyone’s verdict on this? Zach Johnson doesn’t tee off for another 1.5 hours.

He hasn't swung a club yet, I'd say let him have it. I'd get a little leary going forward from here, I guess? But seems like 'whatever' to me in terms of when he called it imo.

Brooks Koepka had surgery three weeks ago. And can you believe he is walking? And competing in the Masters?!

Unlike some of my previous picks, Paul Casey hasn't played himself out of the pool to start, but E after 2 having missed decent birdie chances isn't ideal either.

Can we have the featured group commentators all the time? They don't feel the need to fill in every single moment of time with endless talking and it's wonderful.

I think I only bother with the broadcast on Sunday tbh. I almost always stick with Featured Groups on Thursday and Friday, and then I'll hop between the various hole groups on Saturday.

Absolutely.

However, I've somehow queued in on the 'crows of Augusta' and while they're not talking all I can hear is the two-beat "AWK .. AWK!" repeated indefinitely forever behind them and it reminds me that behind the luscious greenery and pageantry of our frivolous world there is only death. So if we could tune those out it'd be nice.
