The Masters 2015 Thread

[Deleted member 15344]

As its now being shown on Sky - the Range is being shown alongside multiple other MAsters thought it would be good to start a thread on the Comp and have all the discussion in here

First talking point - Adam Scott has gone back to the longer putter

 

[Bratty]

Second talking point: who should Green Bay Hacker put his lucky £800 on?

Bsvk to point 1, think it makes sense for players to do whatever they can to feel comfortable at Augusta, so can't say I'm surprised at Scott's decision.

 

[One Planer]

No surprise really.

I was wondering if Bradley would also.

Caddies even wearing the boiler suits on the range

Faldo on the range with his Green Jacket on chatting to McIlory

Will also be interesting to see if big Phil swaps putter again, as he was using an older one for the Houston Open.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Not a surprise Scott has swapped.

Spieth has got to be worth a punt.

Watching On the Range and sense of expectation building.

Really is a great event and coupled with my much improved ball striking today, the glorious weather we had and general ambiance I am 'well up for it".

Roll on Thursday!!!

Most of it safely banked, same wager again on Spieth.

It's nice to watch these pros on the range. Watson made it look effortless

Slightly off topic (but you could argue on topic as its been shown in the build up to the Masters!) the beeb are showing a program about the Northern Irish major winners. However, its on BBC NI. Anyone know if one can see this on iplayer? Or is that not possible unless you live in NI?

 

[HomerJSimpson]

When is it on? I can get BBC1 (Northern Ireland) on Virgin

Hmmm, have just looked on the beeb listings and its not there! (I'm sure i didnt imagine it!) There is a program about Rory on Wednesday at 23.35 on BBC NI.

As The Masters is one of the tournaments where putting is so crucial, that seems a smart thing to do. It's not illegal yet!

Totally agree with you. He seems so much more comfy with the longer putter although he's going to have to adapt at some point!

Good man!

Re BBC NI. There's this with Rory available now.

Just catching up with the range coverage and nice to see Reed just completely ignore some kids that want a autograph.

Would it really hurt to take 10 mins out of his time to sign a few things!?

He needs to take a look at Mickleson and Fowler to see how to treat fans (and others). The bloke definitely comes over as a bit of an idiot

How is Adam Scott, a previous winner as well as a runner-up and other good showings at Augusta 20/1 (was 25/1) yet Jason Day who only has 2 stroke play victories and one of them was handed on a plate to him by JB Holmes only 14/1? Pitiful. Scott is now back with the long putter as well.
