Pal just played Augusta

[Glenfish]

72?? Superb score BUT did he lose any balls??

WOW! How much would you enjoy watching the Masters having experienced the course first hand!

And, yes, I do believe they take 2 for 1 tickets....but at summer rates

When you told us this bloke played Augusta a matter of days before the Masters, I was thinking 'bar steward'.

Now you've told me he shot 81 (which some pros won't manage at the Masters), I now think I'd quite like to hurt him physically just to make me feel better!

Having played relatively few courses in my life, the idea of playing somewhere like Augusta just blows my mind. The article in GM about the new captain at St Andrews having the 1st tee cannon ritual gave me goose bumps just imagining what that must be like.

Which idiot was asking us to give pros, who play these all the time and for free, respect again?

 

[The_Squire]

Wow. I wouldn't mind hitting 81 myself, at my home course.

I guess it helps when your home course has the fastest greens in the UK

Wow he's a member at Hunstanton too then, fast greens are not sole the preserve of the scots

 

[bunkered]

Hunstanton greens are by far the fastest.....

 

[Dodger]

You aint played at Hexham in the height of summer then!

 

[John_Findlay]

Just speaking from personal experience, chaps. They're certainly by far the fastest greens I've ever played on when they're in tournament mode, and I've now played 98 courses, including many Open venues.

Just an opinion.

The point I was trying to make was that my friend plays on very fast greens as a matter of course, which is gonna help at Augusta.
