2017 Masters Tournament Discussion Thread

some reports says DJ probably not starts today after some practice shots on range :(

Would certainly be shame...those sudden falls can hurt the most. No telling how sore he is...they mention is elbows at all?

[tbowles411]

I always start hoping Fowler will be in contention. I will reserve that sentiment for Sunday afternoon.

It's going to happen one day...

I picked Pieters in my family Masters pool, and now I'm regretting not stopping by one of the sports books and throwing some money down on him yesterday.

 

Whoopsie.

No one is going bogey free today. That's a lock.

That double isn't going to help.

DJ looks fine warming up on the range.

I didn't think it would be a runaway from him at all, but I do think he has "it" from a talent standpoint and can be there in contention through the 4 days.

Adam Scott with what looks like close to being a shank on 13.

[PapaJohick]

did scott just shank it?

[jonsnow]

Ugh. Adam Scott just shanked a long iron on #13.

[tofur99]

Not every day you see a hosel rocket from Adam Scott. I saw one of his irons once irl and the wear mark was clearly defined and about the size of a dime, dead center on the face.

Freddie's swing is just so pure.

We all look good on the range ;)

[cvvorst]

DJ looks just fine on the range right now, but who knows?

[moonshine]

Freddie's swing is just so pure.

Some expert on here said Ashworth was done...yet there it is on Couples' sweater.

[carn9698]

DJ must be gutted. Bad luck just at the wrong time.

Apparently you've never seen me practice and play. :)

Willett seems to think winning the Masters was the capper to his career.

[pheenomz4774]

Lots of good groups going through Amen corner now on the Masters coverage. Helps make up for the poop show they called the Featured Groups.

[North Texas]

Now on track for 81, +2 thru 4. Not out of it.

[North Texas]

Two former winners in the bottom four.

[cvvorst]

DJ hitting driver on the range. I'm guessing if he was going to pull out he wouldn't be hitting driver. He could decide to withdraw after the round or during it, but it certainly seems he's going to give it a go.

[KennyP]

Has Ernie gone through the 1st yet?

[Yellow Jacket]

Unironically if I were DJ, I would use the umbrella in his bag as a walking stick.

Ashworth IS done. It has been replaced by AdiPure by Adidas. Maybe he just likes that Ashworth sweater.

Breaking News..... Dustin Johnson has withdrawn from the 2017 Masters tournament

[North Texas]

Wow, Billy Hurley III stood on 15 tee at 2 under. Triples 15 and adds 2 bogeys for a +3 75.

[cvhookem63]

Dammit. Doesn't look good for DJ. Talking to Fred Ridley and shaking his head.

[AThompson_3]

Breaking News..... Dustin Johnson has withdrawn from the 2017 Masters tournament

Fake news. He's just told the ESPN reporter that he's going to try.

[Lagavulin62]

Anyone else old enough to remember when coverage consisted of the back nine only?

 

 

 

That really sucked compared to our options today.

 

And only Saturday and Sunday.

 

 

Back nine? I remember before we had that luxury and we started with the second shot on 13. I'm only 54 too. I really enjoyed it back then because it meant the telecast would start with guys like Palmer finishing up. Of course with no big names in the older ranks I'm not sure I could watch like that. But it worked also because we watched because of the course. You wanted to see those holes as much as the players.

Breaking News..... Dustin Johnson has withdrawn from the 2017 Masters tournament

Fake news, alternative facts.

 

Are you secretly Sean Spicer?
