Im and his translator like,

 

What up, you fine, Amanda 

 

 

[CaymanS]

Yes, the course played easy all 4 days, but DJ still only had 3 bogeys!

DJ going into the clubhouse, I thought I was watching a bang energy Instagram ad

What a player and what a performance Dustin Johnson, one of the great major performances. Only 4 bogeys all week! Absolutely faultless, control and power, poise under pressure. Well deserved.

 

Never felt right he had only won one major. Wouldn't be surprised if he wins 2 or 3 more.

Lowest total by a winner....4 stinkin bogies around AGNC......amazing

I did not realize Sungjae’s short game was that sharp.  Congrats to DJ & gutsy performance by Cam Smith.

Not the most dramatic final day tbh. However, I like having a major at this time of year, I think they should be as spread out as possible throughout the year.

[flip flappy]

Glad to see DJ have a great final round and finish it off for his first Green Jacket. Anybody notice how on 18 after DJ missed his birdie putt he reached in his pocket to get his ball marker and was like, screw it, I'm going to go ahead an tap it in. No need for being  spotlight tap in after everyone else has finished.

What a finish by TW, five birdies on the last six holes, and those were some of the hardest holes on the course. TW sent a message with the way he came back after that blowup hole -- "I'M NOT DONE". He'll grab another jacket within the next few years, count on it.

Gonna have to disagree with you on that

[Hawkeye77]

Pretty darn articulate in the cabin - one of the better Butler Cabin sessions!

[jdl]

DJ actually doing pretty well here with his answers. A little more personality than usual.

[2bGood]

Got to love the Bryson and Tiger Fan Boys - Bryson sent a message? Tiger sent a message?

 

Sorry not true.

Did you actually watch TW's last six holes or did you just assume he played terrible because of his score today? He had an absolutely awful hole but turned it around and played the best six holes of golf of ANYBODY on the course this weekend afterward. He'll be able to bottle that and take it to next year. TW's not done, not by a longshot.

DJ gets a lot of grief for his public persona, kind of a dopey, stoner vibe, but this performance was magnificent.  This was the most impressive example of conservative aggression I've ever seen.  4 bogeys?  Stunning.

[bscinstnct]

TW like,

 

 

You break my record!

Father time hasn't been kind to him. Will he win another tournament? Yes, but not the Masters. Not with the crop of people who are coming up and playing as good as they are.

Tiger is done. Yes I watched his last 7 holes and he was over par. He isn't the only guy to rattle off birdies when out of the tournament. He looks older than Langer out there.

[mukster]

Langer smokes both TW and Bryson

I am happy for DJ. I have always hated the DJ haters.  Hate on.

I don't know why he gets so much s*** on this forum. He's a cool dude. I know it's common for yuppies to lack empathy for middle and working class people but the ones here should try to develope some.

Tiger had 6 great holes when out of contention to finish 19 strokes behind the leader. It is nice little snippet of play but I would accept most any bet that he does not win another major. 

 

Having said that he seemed solid enough over the week that it is possible the stars align for him the future, but it sure is not probable.

2021 majors

 

Masters - ANGC

PGA - Kiawah Ocean course

US Open - Torrey Pines

British Open - Royal St. Georges

 

I wonder if they will not be as easy as Augusta.  It played like a rather easy executive course.  Shows you how good some of the players out there are especially DJ and Cameron Smith.

[Yuck]

If DJ eats 1 sandwich, that particular green jacket won’t fit...

Nah, he's done. But nobody grinds to make a cut or shoot under par like he does.

Amanda bringing him to tears!

[Holy Moses]

Haha, DJ. Love it. I’m sure it’s tough to talk.

He is the second oldest ever winner of the Masters, he has matured nicely in his mid-40s compared to where he was 5 years ago. There's enough there to suggest he will contend again. He hadn't played great golf going into this year but if he gets any kind of form going into the next few years he has a chance.
