After his recent bad mouthing of Augusta, is Gary Player still going to be an honorary starter? I was slightly surprised to see him turn up at the dinner after the last week.

Also managed to make Player quite Irish. Still funny though, pity he moved more into F1 and away from the golf recently
He is listed oficially as an Hon Starter with Jack and Watson.

I’d prefer to see Kyle Berkshire and Martin Borgmeir launch one up the first.

Or grimace, slow shuffle, sweaty face, patented gum chew, or inevitable ride on the golf cart.
Anyone laying on some bets this weekend?
Need to get my list of 10 down to 4 or 5
McIlroy to miss cut @ 9/1
McIlroy to win @ 8/1
Koepka to be top LIV golfer @ 7/1
McClean to be top amateur @ 14/1

Although it’s not really done here, I find the almost denigrating of Willett’s win which is alluded to here, a bit OTT — it’s the ‘Spieth Fan-Club’ at No Laying Up who do this the most…After 72 holes Willett won fair and square, Spieth had plenty of holes to come back. The Masters winner will usually do well at the gettable 13 and 15 and the Sunday funnel-pin on 16…it wasn’t like Spieth stumbled at the last hole

I’d like to see Fleetwood win the most. If DJ, Cam Smith, Rose or Bryson won then I’d also be happy
It will be interesting to see if he is asked again next year. Cancelling him at this stage would cause a fuss so they may do it quietly for next year.

Sticking my neck out maybe but I don't think he'll ever win a major. He seems guaranteed to always throw in one bad round out of the four. He doesn't seem to have that ruthless edge or killer instinct - he's too nice to win a major.
If I'm wrong then it would have to be at the Open I think, that would be his best chance as he has the iron play for it. Has he ever won anything in America? Seems like he hasn't, going by his Wikipedia.Troymcclure

Thoughts on the dinner photo:-
Woosie in it twice
Can’t remember the Walrus winning
Floyd and Langer looking well
Could Gentle Ben or Freddy take over from Player as HS

Was also my first thought.Woosie in it twice
The fact that he's at both ends makes it looks like he's done the old school photo trick and run around the back...

First choice is Rory. Get it right up the haters. Breaks this duck and then I wouldn't bet against him for more.
Others I think have a chance - Day, Scheffler, Rahm, Homa, Morikawa

More likely this. I'm sure Cabrera didn't receive an invitation this year but they haven't made any fuss over it.

Someone talk me through Nick Dougherty's choice of suit. It's absolutely shocking.

Been watching the Masters for over 50 years. Love it more each time. It's way special. Always fascinating. Just wish it was BBC showing it, but that won't dampen the enthusiasm.

Couldn’t believe Rory was 7-1 absolute joke of a price.

Listening to Sir Nick earlier.
He cut out all the silly jokes designed for the yanks and talked about the course and what you need to do to win.
very interesting he was good to listen to.
