Should be a decent group to watch here 15:41, 18:48: Phil Mickelson, Rory McIlroy (NI), Ryan Moore

Jason Day, Sergio Garcia and Rickie Fowler should be worth watching too. Can't wait!

Noticed that the order of play (tee times) isn't reversed for day 2 (not even close)

Is this normal for the Masters?

That's the one I'll be interested in.
Hoping SG has a good week-end with his flat stick.

I've not looked at the draw, but am I right in assuming that tiger has been drawn to play during the 4 hours of TV coverage?

It isn't a straight reversal for most golf tournaments. Otherwise you'd have the 1st tee time then being the last out on the 2nd day, but people in the middle going out at the same time twice and possibly having the prime spot for both days.

I think the way The Masters do it is to halve the field. Each half stays in the same order and they just swap those halves around between Thurs and Friday (eg Early half on Thurs goes out late on Friday and vice versa).

About 80% of his first round & 50% ish of day 2 during live broadcast

Just looking over the draw & my 5 (not hot favourites) players I’m most looking forward to watching:

Patrick Reed
Miguel Angel Jimenez
Padraig Harrington
Brooks Koepka
Tiger Woods

What about you?

There's some good grouping next to each other that I'd like to follow (if I was lucky enough to be there!), watch both groups through, jump forward a bit etc... etc..... Suspect that the Mickleson, Rory group and Tigers group will both have a fair bit of a crowd.

Reed, Bradley, Poulter
Big Mig, Westwood, Lahiri

Big Phil, Rory, Moore
Holmes, Kaymer, Snedeker

Kuchar, Koepka, GMac
Spieth, Stenson, Horschel

Tiger, Donaldson, Walker
Day, Serg, Fowler

Due to the coverage, each of those, tiger excepted, will only be on the course for around 3 hours over two days while the live telly is on. Good luck with following them.

You can watch the whole field go through Amen corner & 15/16 via the red button

Love watching all those guys play!

But the red button is never hd, so it's rubbish.

I love how grateful we are to be allowed to watch a limited feed of three holes, when we should be able to watch all of it. The media, the uspga, and the r and a should tell them to shove it.

Erm did you draw Woosie in the office sweep by any chance!




Actually I agree with you though, shocking in this day to be spoon fed such limited coverage

While I wish we got full coverage as well I actually love watching the amen corner feed before the main feed starts. Feels like your actually at the tournament watching all the players rather than just the big names or the people playing well.
As one of the mugs with a 3d tv I miss the 3d coverage

Going for Rose. Expect to see plenty of coverage as he's out with Bubba (and Rose is going low!!)
