The Masters 2018

How did Leishman manage to get a 2 club length drop on the 18th if it was not a penalty drop?

Rory is just as likely to implode than Reed at Augusta.

Personally I would love to see Rickie win it now that my pick Kooch is out of it.

The standard of golf yesterday was incredible. The best in the world all making their move on a course that was receptive to being attacked, given the damper conditions. Some wonderful putting front Reed to keep everyone at arms length and a stellar round from both Rory, Rickie and Tommy. Felt sorry for Leishman, nothing would go in for him yesterday.

Sunday looks set to be a cracker.

i couldn’t understand it at all....

2 club lengths, no penalty but also didn’t take full relief by the looks of things

Is it any wonder that playoffs sometimes finish in semi darkness when the leaders tee off at 2.40.
I know they're playing in 2 balls but sunset is at 8pm
5 1/2 hours for a round and a playoff....:mmm:

 

[Imurg]

So I'm watching the golf through the BBC website.
Tiger and Rafa.
So cameras are out there on the course as we're seeing every shot from both players.
Backlog on the 2nd. I've seen the drives and then they've stood around for nearly 5 minutes waiting for the green to clear.
And because they're not allowed to show anything else because the Masters has their collective heads positioned up their collective orifice and don't allow proper coverage, I've lost the will to live.
There is golf being played, why can't we watch it?
It's so frustrating....

This baffles me too.

Missed the first 2 days as was in the USA with no golf coverage but manged to see some last night before the jet lag kicked in.

Should be a cracking final round. Any of the top 10 still in with a shout, if Reed has a bad day and Rory doesnt get the putter going.Happy for any European to win it it.Reed played some great stuff and if he wins fair play cause he deserves it. I like players showing some passion on the course and he doesnt come across as a bad guy and he plays on ET as well which more yanks should do.

Anyway, how can it be a Major when only 85 players get a start in the first place

Genuine question when was the last time someone outside the top 50 won a major?

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

Quite unexpectedly I'm finding myself with Tiger - actually willing him to do as well as he can - and just fed up listening to commentators continuing to talk up everything little positive he does - then big downer when he can't follow it up to 'build and maintain any momentum' - please just give the guy a break. They talk with expectations that he can be performing near his past capability. Get real he just can't - at least not yet.

I think Willett was 51st the year he won, expect he was the last, Jimmy Walker was 48th when he won the USPGA so came close too

Cabrera in 09..?

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

I don't like him as he isn't Rory - he might be a lovely and splendid fella - but he isn't Rory. As others have stated in other threads - how can I possibly not like someone if I have never met him personally...

...and then he goes and three putt 7 from pretty much nowhere - though tricky swing on first putt. And the spectators applaud...

I'm not sure he actually doesn't just want off the course...

Kaymer needs a longer jumper!

Mate Willett was ranked about 12th when he won!! 😂😂

would help if Id looked at the right date lol. that said I still think he shouldve been closer to 51 than 12 haha

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Right then prediction time. I'm going Reed by 3 (and secretly hoping it's like one of my football predictions so Rory wins)

 

[Beezerk]

Come on Rory, bring it home.
