Masters 2017 thread

Masters 2017 Bets.jpg Decent first day for my English picks & Cobra guy Rickie Fowler.

Unreal day for Charlie Hoffman in that weather & on those greens. Crossing everything I've got, playing with the beads, rabbits foot in pocket, etc. for Lee Westwood. That back nine yesterday showed what he is about. Moment of the day on 15th fairway. Lee nails a 3 wood into the setting sun & gets something in his eye. He turns to Billie Foster & asks, 'Where did that go?'. To which Billie Foster in his usual manner replies nonchalantly, 'Middle o' t' green'. Classic Foster :rofl:
 
The BBC is a joke. Tweeting out that Richard Fitzpatrick finished -1.

Who in their right mind would choose to watch their inferior coverage? Whenever it actually starts
Yes you, stick to the important stuff like discussing Monty who isn't even there. ;)
 
Seems like I'm in a minority. I really enjoy listening to Butch, McGinley and enjoyed Bjorn's stint on commentary last night too. WAY better than listening to Monty or Faldo.
 
Bugs me when he always looks directly into the camera when he talks, plus he talks the usual US bullcrap.

He is the only commentator that can look into 2 different cameras at the same time :o

Great round of golf and not unusual for first round in a major but for sure he'll be caught,Rose looked very steady might have a punt on him.
 
anyone know how long the players took to get round?

only watched 10 mins of the end of the highlights and was described as a long round on a couple of occasions even in that short time.
 
had to over 5 hours comfortably, think watson and walker were last out, i headed to bed just after Rory walked off 18 at about 12.15 and think watson was on 17, they tee'd off about 7pm our time? just checked, Rory was out at 641 so 5h30 mins for a round, noticed the Rory Rahm group seemed to be waiting a lot toward the end of the round, Langer was in front of them :O

None of them seem to help themselves. When Rory and Rahm were waiting on 18 for the green to clear none of them had a club in hand. Basically they stood their leaning on the bag and waited the green to clear and then and only then they start the club choice discussion, the wind discussion, the line and landing point discussion etc . Then they start the pre shot routine and then they play. They all seem set for a long round and have no interest in playing quicker.
