Why all the interviews and commentary.  Can we just watch the players?

What a waste On the Range has been this year. I bet there’s a total of a half hour out of the two hours of actually showing the range. Stop with the interviews. Stop with the vignettes. Stop with the info graphics. Just set up five cameras and shut the eff up.

Max Homa on range now. Every time I see the Fortinet logo on his sleeve, I think he must be sponsored by Fortnite...

I know when money is on object that this kind of thing can happen but honestly, how good does the new tee at 13 look?

Posted that one in the course thread... just a few bucks along the way to make sure you add a tee box...

It is beautiful, isn't it? I still feel like they are tinkering with a masterpiece. I trust they know what they are doing; history says they do.

His last 3 finishes are top 10s. That includes the "fall Masters" of course.

Hmm. Never heard of him until Sunday.  Is he canadian ?

Why ?  Has he ever played Augusta well ?  I love a good dark horse.  And it’s a bargain for sure , but I’m not sure it’s inaccurate odds.  

 

Yes see my other post. Three consecutive top 10s at Augusta and obviously just won last week at Valero.

Not sure you'll be laughing when Nantz annouces Hello Friends on Sunday and the first leaderboard you'll see will have the foursome of : Connors, Hughes, Svensson and euh Weir at the top!... (where are Taylor, Hadwin and Pendrith when you need them haha)

Sure does look like they tried to get the serious contenders late Thu so they can go early Fri and finish if Saturday is a no go, you largely have likely non contenders going 7-10am Thursday...that probably is not a coincidence 

[Warrick]

I think they did well, probably a lot of temptation to make some sketchy groups, but a solid job.

As I mentioned on a different thread, guys on 12 green better be wearing helmets when I pull out the driver!

I’m only listing as I drink my ☕️ But I’m pretty sure ‘Live from the Masters’ they just said no “I don’t think we can say it here” player that is paired with a PGAT player that’s considered a big name/contender. 
 

*hmmm, just saw Cam Smith w/Hideki. So scratch that! 😂

HI all, what is the best source(s) to watch the Player and Fred interviews?  Not live but streamed afterwards. I should note I am in the US.

 

Thanks in advance.

If you go to pairings at masters.com and then hit the bio on a player, it has an IBM Watson projected score when you scroll down just a little.   It predicts Sahith Theegala will shot 78 ........  man, I would be *&^%^% .  It predicts 73 for Tiger.

well they did make Smith play w/ a pair of non-English speakers. Maybe thats an indirect way of trying to make him feel uncomfortable. If theres a LIV player the PGA doesnt want to see get hot, it's Smith. Then LIV can make the case they have the world's true #1. jmho

Why would Smith be uncomfortable playing with non-English speakers?

Quick question regarding the weather... so I got extremely lucky and got offered tickets to Saturday, flying up from Louisiana on Friday, first time going, bucket list experience

 

Obviously the weather forecast has me worried, I dont care about rain, I'm going if the gates are open and will be there til they kick me out.  If its just light normal rain, they will keep the gates open I assume?  Lightning and heavy rain, do they kick all patrons out or hang around waiting for a restart?  

 

Going to be pretty disappointing to get there and them not play, or not be open to patrons, on Saturday.  The tickets are not in my name (corporate tickets) so I wont get a chance to purchase for next year other than the lottery that I've never won.

 

I am planning on making the flight and going no matter what, just curious what anyone knows about how they may treat the course regarding the patrons on Saturday.

 

(that wasn't as quick as I thought)

[khalespace]

This is intentional.... One of these guys will win.

I’ll have to Google all of those except weir.    Swear to goodness the Canadian thing I didn’t know until after I posted that.  It was a joke , but I didn’t know it was true as well ! 😂
