THE MASTERS
- Thread starter cawoodsct
- Start date
Don't know if anyone is watching the tournament today but Bhatia went to the back nine with a 6 shot lead, shot 2 under and still had to drain a 20 footer on 18 to make a playoff. McCarthy birdied 8 of the 9 holes on the back nine.
Golfing buddy is once again working The Masters. Worked security at Butler Cabin last time.
McCarthy played the back 9 of his life and then proceeded to chunk a wedge into the water on the playoff 18th while Bhatia had to get treatment for his shoulder that he threw out of socket while celebrating making a huge putt on the regulation 18th hole. Wild yet very entertaining final round between those 2.
Bhatia was at Barbasol last summer, he has a ton of game, really glad for him but felt TERRIBLE for McCarthy who has never won on the tour
I can name them all except the guy between Crenshaw and Player, the guy next to Nicklaus (Ray Floyd maybe?) and the guy standing in front of Mickelson and Garcia. I assume two must be Ray Floyd and Sandy Lyle but really can't say for sure.
Tommy Aaron on left next to Player. Charles Coody on right. Floyd sitting in front right.
Was a beautiful day at Augusta yesterday (complete opposite of the weather coming). Followed Rahm, Sergio and Jose Maria for a good bit. Rahm is just a machine. Hits it a mile but his short game touch is incredible. Can tell Tiger has put in the work in the gym but who knows about that leg and ankle. Bryson absolutely destroyed his drive on #13. Went over the trees. Followed several others as well. Still Scottieās to lose IMO.
I must have come across a machine with a glitch this morning. It had DeChambeau at 30/1 as the co-leader after the first hole. 18 other players with lower odds.
Tee Times are up for Saturday's round 3.
The final pairings will be Scheffler with Hojgaard, and DeChambeau with Homa.

I went straight from Augusta to UK Childrenās Hospital for 4 days so I donāt have much to add about the actual golf but I do have this.
They sold out the Gnomeās the other day when I was there. Was sorta bummed about it. $1k later have even more shirts, etc to add to my already large Masters collection.I went straight from Augusta to UK Childrenās Hospital for 4 days so I donāt have much to add about the actual golf but I do have this.
We got straight in the pro shop line and waited about an hour and a half. There were still large gnomes when I got there but I preferred the small one for my office.
Looks like Bryson is going to be burning the midnight oil at the range/putting green figuring out things.
Bryson!! What a shot. Got to make up for some of the disappointment. Great way to avoid having to putt.
Scottie could have easily been 3 or 4 better. Course was tough and the #1 played it near perfect today.
Scheffler on his way to a historic year.
7 events....all top 10's (6-3-10-1-1-2-1) w/ Bay Hill, Players, Masters on the trophy shelf.
35 rounds and this many over par: NONE.
All in all just a likeable guy....seems like the type that would mow your yard if you asked and has beers w/ the crew down at the local pub.
