Can gatormd start the PGA thread lol..

[FargoRC]

Loved seeing all the guys waiting to give Tiger congrats before he signed his card, you wouldn't see that in the days of prime Tiger. You have to be some kind of hater not to enjoy today.

I think the last time it happened was 1966.

[BB28403]

Anybody else of the mindset that Tiger winning and everyone else missing everything and playing bad after 15 was a little too convenient ?

 

I mean it just seems really odd .

 

Hopefully pro golf hasn’t turned into Pro Wrestling.

Really though, even if it was a week early, he did a great job with posting information in the first post.

> At 12, Brooks was behind, right? If you aren't in the lead I'm all for going at 12. You can say there's still plenty of holes ahead of Brooks and he should have played to the center or over the bunker, but it isn't the mental gaff that Molinari made being up 2 and going at 12.

 

Koepka was behind at 12, but he's also a long hitter with ability to eagle 13 & 15. It was a very poor decision. Cost him the jacket. He could have played 30 feet left and holed that putt anyway.

[Lamb]

Tiger Woods does not need his A game to beat this era. Remember this is the first time he has come back from behind to win the masters. These kids are over hyped!! Media and fans bought the bs - I didn't!! He would had wiped them off the map if he was the young 20 something Tiger.

Do you think Augusta’s weather controlling machine can also manipulate the brain waves of certain competitors?

[Ronnie Mundt]

What a win. Just the best.

Lol. Yea the fix was in.

[Christosterone]

Is “bone fishing in the Bahamas” a real thing or some sort of euphemism?

 

Also steph curry just congratulated tiger....

So I congratulate steph curry and @"Cool Runnings" for having theories like “the world is flat” and “tiger will never win another major”....

Two theories with the exact same scientific value...

Congrats guys....you’ve both earned it

If they could control they weather, they wouldn't have put the leaders off at 9:20 local time

[freddi22cl]

that was awesome!!!!!!!!!

 

 

didnt expect Molinari to fade, shocked frankly. Tee shot at 12 , i nearly hit the floor!!!!

 

surgical precision with the irons for Tiger , somehow started hitting fairways at 14. He got a massive break at 13, to his credit he responded. Congrats

[Ferguson]

Yes. Yes.

Fantastic day!

Ah yes, Koepka, Molinari, and a handful of others didn't really want a green jacket.

 

Tiger's the GOAT!!

Bad take. There isn't a single PGA player that would forgo a Masters Championship to see Tiger win.

Really only the putt Brooks missed on 18 suprised me and it is a major championship not the John Deere Open, nerves are going to be in play. Tiger put the pressure on and made great shot after great shot. Nobody else could match him.

[Cool Runnings]

Who's eating crow? Not me, he made me a believer again as I just posted... I don't understand all this bitterness you still hold towards those that were simply a little more doubtful if Tiger could win another major? Can you explain where this comes from please?

Tiger with still a lot of hard work to do, took these opportunities and finished like the champion he is and thoroughly deserved this amazing win. This win is not only great for Tiger, golf in general, but those Tiger fans like me that don’t wear rose-tinted glasses and judge him on what he’s able to do today. Today he made myself a believer that he could win even more majors. How many more, I’m not sure, but today was historic, and you brought a smile to my face that I haven’t worn for sometime. Thank you Tiger.

Definitely. Look at the fact that he came back from injury and went from 668th to 13th in the OWGR in just 1 season. And he only won once, which would be a terrible season for prime Tiger.

 

Where does this Master's win move him in the OWGR? I'm guessing 5th?

I hate to say it but I have seen this in other pro tourneys. RBC Heritage last yeah where Kodira won. Was just out of no where and all his competitors just missed everything , even in the playoff

[BlackM00Nlight]

Can’t wait to see hole 12 again. Looking at body language, eyes, nerves, anything to tip off being uncomfortable before Tony and Frankie went swimming. Maybe catch Tiger’s eyes light up when he realizes what’s unfolding in front of him.

Are you sure? They’re now playing the broadcast twice. IBM’s Watson has clearly calculated all of this ;-)

Molinari hit not 1 but 2 into the water and missed a bunch after that

Yeah it's called extreme pressure and a hard golf course. Are you really implying that the other guys lost on purpose? Happy hour start early?

Impressive list - he really looked deflated until watching Frankie’s ball go for a swim on 12. Then the fire reignited and he never looked back.
