THE MASTERS
- Thread starter cawoodsct
- Start date
It is what is it...if you go to the Masters to chest bump over a pimento cheese sandwich for a couple of bucks, then find a new gig.
Are there only two missing Master Champs still living missing? Jackie Burke Jr and Angel Cabrera?

Not sure, but Burke is 100 years old and Cabrera is still serving time in an Argentina jail.
I had not seen Phil M since he lost a ton of weight, personally, I think he does not look well, and his game is awful. Sounds like he was not himself last night as well. My guess is that he has had some second thoughts about the LIV deal, Golf Channel last night was wearing him out, saying they could understand some other guys taking the money, but Phil already had it all, would have been a natural choice on TV, eventual Masters starter, and celebrated as one of the game's great champions. Now, what will be his legacy, especially if LIV goes down the tubes (which I fully expect to happen)?
Pics from the dinner. Evidently, Tiger is getting his suits straight off the rack at Kohls, judging by the pic w/ him, Couples and VJ.

Reworking "A River Runs Through It" for The Masters:
Like many golfer in western Georgia where the summer days are almost Sahara in length, I often do not start golfing until the cool of the evening. Then in the spring half-light of the Azaleas, all existence fades to a being with my soul and memories and the sounds of Rae's Creek and a four-stroke lead and the hope that the wind will not rise. Eventually, all things merge into one, and a creek runs through it. The creek was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of those rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs. I am haunted by The Masters.

I always thought it was in this order in ranking the majors?
1. Masters
2. US Open
3. British
4. PGA

Gordon Sargent grew up a couple streets over from us- and in a few years has gone from *really* good to *really f'ing* good. He missed some opportunities when junior events were canceled during covid but seems to be a household name for those who follow the amateur/college ranks. Also he apparently was mistaken for one of the kids from the Drive, Chip, Putt competition.
Also- if you have a chance to check out Sam Bennett's story about his journey and his dad, its pretty amazing. Tear-jerker for sure so be prepared for that.

Never get tired of watching Couples golf swing. Just effortless and still hits it pretty far off the tee.
Not really crazy at all, that’s only 7 percent growth. Above historical inflation but below historical stock returns.
Sadly true. Dude looks like a skeleton now and seems like he's aged 30 years over the last year.
Phil ran into money and legal problems so he might not have been doing as good as some people think. He may have gotten mixed up with the kind of guys that break your legs over gambling debts so who knows. From what I gather Phil almost went to jail and may have a serious gambling problem.
