Default The Masters Thread

Forget seat belts in golf carts, as a golf aficionado...I may need to install one on my easy chair for tomorrow!

So many compelling stories and such a tight leaderboard of great players.

While I would love to see Spieth make up for last year, I wouldn't be disappointed to see a few others win either.

Rose is a heck of a player and with being an Olympic Gold Medalist and US Open champion...he would be a fine representative.

Rickie Fowler breaking through in a major, would also be a heck of a good story...as well as a popular and well earned win.

And while I admire Hoffman, I'm not sure his nerves are up to the pressure of the back nine at Augusta on Sunday.

Which brings up my dark-horse pick...Ryan Moore. I just like Moore's almost blue-collar like workmanship and demeanor.

And I wouldn't have said this a few years ago because of his historical pouty and immature attitude, I have to now say that I'm mostly rooting for Garcia to win his first major...especially on what would have been his idol Seve's 60th birthday.

In spite of how Garcia has acted in the past, with his skill...I think he has paid his dues and hope he finally wins a major.

Regardless of who wins, I'll bet it will be like riding a roller coaster...watching the last 9 holes.

I apparently missed that there is a 'Pro Golf' sub-forum in the 'Sports Talk' forum...so had this in the wrong place.

A public thanks to the mod's for once again being on top of it...and moving it to the appropriate location.

Stocking up on snacks to watch...what should should be a Classic!

Very much looking forward to hunkering down in front of the tv this afternoon and seeing how things unfold!

When living up north watching the Masters was magical. A beautiful scene at every hole with everything at full bloom. And the best golfers in the world competing at the highest level.

Even though it is no longer a coming out of hibernation event I still marvel at the beauty of the course. And it will be fun to watch the younger golfers caught up in the history and pageantry. Sunday at the Masters is the best.
