[QUOTE=famousdavis]It has nothing to do with the blades. I think it has more to do with sun dots and everything else lining up correctly. I can just feel it. Tiger will win the Masters.[/QUOTE]

So basically you're getting a woody for Woody? No surprises here.

I am not a Tiger fan. Never have been. I pull for him in Ryder cups and when he is playing against a non-American that I don't care for. (I was pulling for YE Yang in the 09 PGA, though) One thing about Tiger is certain. You can never count him out. Never. It's funny to me that people forget how many amazing things he's done, and think he's finished. Do you guys really think at 37 years old he's never goin to win again? Granted, he probably won't win alot until next year, and he might not win a major [B]this[/B] year, but he will eventually. When he switched to Hank Haney, he said that swing changes usually took 2 years to stick. He will win a major again. He finished tied for 4th in the Masters last year. It would not surprise me if he missed the cut, but it wouldn't surprise me if we won the whole damn thing, either.

Now that's what you call having a bet each way!

No, I'm talking about sun dots. You know when you stare at the sun and then look away and you see these little transparent dots in your vision? All of them lined up and spelled T 15. That stands for Tiger 15 majors. I'm telling you that Tiger Woods is going to win the Masters. It is preordained...or whatever the word is.

[QUOTE=oldplayer]Now that's what you call having a bet each way![/QUOTE]
No, OP, I wouldn't bet on either, but nothing would surprise me from Tiger. I think everyone that is saying he's done and that Jack's record is safe are going to be made to look foolish soon. If I were betting, I'd say Tiger will have one stellar round, one lackluster round and two mediocre ones to finish just outside the top 20. Book it.

I'll book it then raise you 20 places to #1. I'm betting that Tiger will be even par after the first day and then lay on a surge you haven't seen since Rambo part deuche.

He's 37. He's not old.

Jack was the oldest golfer to ever win the Masters and he was 46 whenever he did it. 37 is ancient in the PGA. He's almost ready to draw his pension.

The T 15 is where he'll be after that little Chevron-sponsored event he hosts somewhere out near you all in SoCal. The one McDowell won last year.

Mine is always good, but it would seem FD's has been laced with multiple psychotropics and hallucinogens. He may require medical attention at this point. He also may have OverDavis'd on himself after getting called out by fred3.

I can tell he's high as a kite just by looking at him. You can see it in his avatar.

He's bad news, boys.



FON

Almost forgot.

Tiger will finish T27th at +5 on Sunday. He will open with a 73, and go on to shoot 41 on his first nine friday, only to go on a Tiger-of-old tear on the second nine to make the cut by one shot. This will give the Tiger lovers hope, and Saturday he'll finish 5 back of the leaders... everyone in the media will be blowing Tiger's horn at that point, saying he's overdue for a breakthrough. They'll be talking about the 5th green jacket for hours before he tees off on Sunday. Then he'll go out and throw it away by closing with an abysmal 77 to lose by 9 shots.

Some shortknocking noob wins the green jacket. Dustin Johnson in second two back, and Phil finishes T-3 three back.

If all of that happens exactly as predicted, I most certainly WILL be buying a lottery ticket. :D



FON

Picking the winner or the top for is difficult. Obviously it's going to be someone with a hot flat stick and wedges. I curious if you GR thinks a short knocker Fairway's and Greens Lary type player of a bomber like Bubba, DJ, or McBoobs? I'm pulling for a bomber over the short knocker jesus fearing types like Zach.

Tiger will be lucky to be to make the cut. Tied 15th only if he putts well. Moobs short game may save him, as after watching the shell open he still can't hit a fairway wiht any regularity. How are they setting up the course this year?

He came in 4th last year and really didn't play that well. He knows the course as well as anyone there and always seems to play well. Are you joking about how they are going to set up the course?

I recall a couple of years back they were growing rough, lengthening holes etc to Tiger proof it. Now he is half the player he was are they making it easier??? My point was, Phil will win hitting it all over the place if the course is set up so wayward drives/tee shots aren't penalised. There was talk for many years about what Augusta was doing to the course, just haven't heard anything lately. Maybe if an Aussie can win the tourney we will get better interest by the media over here.

Aaron Baddelly is a solid contender. I think they should keep Augusta free of rough. That's the way the course was meant to be played. Phil is clearly the favorite to win this tournament. Let's face it, it's impossible to pick the winner because plenty of relatively unknowns have won it. I hope that's not the case this year. Last year's majors, with the exception of the Masters, were horrible for TV viewing.

I just saw that The Masters is bieng picked up by a different broadcaster thsi year, and they are going to show full coverage every day. The Masters is now the top major year.

Agree, Baddeley is in my top four picks. Putts the best of the aussies and recently has made big improvements with gir's. Others i like are luke donald, paul casey and graeme mcdowell. They will all be hard pressed to beat phil tho. I think what will let tiger down will be the flatstick.

Tiger's putting is gone. I think he should dig out the putter he used to win in 1997, the teryllium whatever faced Scotty. That week was posibly the greatest display of controlled putting ever. No 3 putts for 72 holes at Augusta is just silly.

Just watched "inside pga tour" and Tiger said that if his putting falls into line then so will the rest of his clubs. Not sure i would want to rely on that at Augusta!

[QUOTE=SoonerBS]Yeah, and just how generic is that statement? Can't pretty much all the golfers claim this? Wow, great insight, Tiger.[/QUOTE]

You are right. None of his interviews give any insight. I was just watching one on the Masters and how special it is. He said "It is the only major that is not rotated. It is played on the same course every year. Every year something exciting happens and it is remembered when we come back."

Really Tiger? I never knew any of those mundane facts.

Wow! Goosen is -2 under after 1 hole? He must have thrown in an eagle on the opening par 4! [img]http://smilies.sofrayt.com/eng/shock11.gif[/img]

Overton just eagled 15 to get back to even par.

He made a RIDICULOUS chip on 11 that hopped 3 times then skidded to a stop a foot from the cup to save par. A really brilliant shot. Although a guy that young using the old man putter is kind of embarrassing.

I agree. He needs to ditch that thing.

Kevin Na is an absolute technician on the green. I'd love to have his putting abilities.

Watney has arguably the best swing on tour, he's a great kid and has a complete game but not the toughest constitution. I cringed a little when I saw your bet. I'd love to be proven wrong but it would be quite the longshot.

I got it working, thanks. Sometimes the feeds will read no video but it seems to be working now. I've been watching 15 and 16. It's kind of neat because you see things on the feeds that you normally don't see on TV...like the patrons drinking beer behind the players on the 16th tee box.

Did anybody else know that story about the reason Jack Nicklaus wore the yellow shirt for the dying boy, Craig Smith? I never knew that. I had chills going down my spine during the telling of that story and at the end I wept. Very touching.

It's been a pure joy to follow the group of Quiros, Woodland and Vegas today. Those guys have smiled, joked and just enjoyed their golf game and each other all day. It is great to see some young guys show that you don't have to be an arsehole to play on the Tour.

I think it was a waste putting those guys together. they should have spread them out with guys like Zach Johnson and Immelman, just to completely humiliate those short knockers in front of the galleries. It would have been cool to hear the gallery sn!ggering when Zach gets to his ball 80 yards short of Woodland.

I didn't notice any sheep shaggers in that photo either.

But that's not the reason I hate the whole Augusta thing. Yaz is right, they are a bunch of red neck crackers who are living in the dark ages. Lets face it, if Tiger had so much as walked in the front gates 30 years ago they would have tied him to the back of a pick up and dragged him round the carpark a few times. I've always hated elitist biggots, and they wrote the book on elitist bigotry.

[QUOTE=Kiwi Player]Is that before or after they lynched him?[/QUOTE]
That's a very good question. I would imagine it would be part of the lynching, but you never can tell with these things. Is there some sort of lynching manual down in the south? Or do they just ad lib it?

[QUOTE=Horseballs]Gary Player? You honestly don't think he's been balls deep in a sheep? I've got some land in Florida to sell you.[/QUOTE]
No doubt, but I was using the term as a proper noun relating to Kiwis, not an adjective, of which Player would obviously qualify.

[QUOTE=Not a hacker]That's a very good question. I would imagine it would be part of the lynching, but you never can tell with these things. Is there some sort of lynching manual down in the south? Or do they just ad lib it?[/QUOTE]

Being Augusta I doubt they would ad lib it. More likely they would have a written protocol that must be obeyed to the letter of the law. Whilst I agree that they would have lynched him if he walked in the front gate there must have been an alternative 'coloreds' entry for the caddies, green keepers assistants, cleaners etc.

So I imagine the protocol would be to lynch him first then drag him around behind the pick up in clear view of the other workers in order to keep the other colored folk in line.

Is that woosy on the end? He's smaller than player.

The young whelps are making a statement these first two early rounds and that statement is, "You old farts go phuck yourselves this is our tournament now."

Does anyone think that Woosie has partaken of a few pints in his life?

[img]http://smilies.sofrayt.com/eng/glasses10.gif[/img]

Gotta love Woosie-after he won he was asked what he was gonna do to celebrate, he said 'drink some beers'. Honesty is the best policy...........looks like Stadler has downed a few too.

I've never really understood how guys like Craig Stadler can carry all that weight and still feel comfortable while playing golf. It just looks so uncomfortable to me.

The Yanger is coming alive and he didn't even need Tiger to be in contention to do it.

Went to Wed practice rd at Augusta in '03, walked the course backwards (18, 17, 16, 15, etc) and wasted too much time at Amen Corner-had to kinda hurry through the front (uh, first) nine and saw Stadler all by himself playing # 2-and he was already sweating. Told him 'good luck' (we were only ones there, everybody else was heading for start of Par 3) and he grunted 'thanks' while taking a puff off his cigarette. Saw Couples smoking on the course that day too, kinda surprised me-didn't know he smoked before that. After Par 3 was over Fuzzy signed a bunch of autographs and finally said 'sorry folks gotta go, the players have to drink too'.

[QUOTE=SoonerBS]The Yanger is coming alive and he didn't even need Tiger to be in contention to do it.[/QUOTE]
Yang-what comes over these guys? Didn't see that one coming-I'd have put money on Quiros before him, guys like Quiros and D Johnson should play Augusta well.

Poulter looks almost tamed down today in his blue plaid ensemble.

Angel Cabrerra, that guy looks like he'd be fun to drink beers with.

[QUOTE=huskyhater]Went to Wed practice rd at Augusta in '03, walked the course backwards (18, 17, 16, 15, etc) and wasted too much time at Amen Corner-had to kinda hurry through the front (uh, first) nine and saw Stadler all by himself playing # 2-and he was already sweating. Told him 'good luck' (we were only ones there, everybody else was heading for start of Par 3) and he grunted 'thanks' while taking a puff off his cigarette.

I suspect there are a few of them that do a LOT of drinking. I know Anthony Kim does.

All I get is:

[I][B][FONT="Times New Roman"]ERROR 120:GEOGRAPHICAL RESTRICTION: You do not have permission to access this resource.[/FONT][/B][/I]

I think a member at Augusta must have been reading my disparaging remarks and banned me. :( Come on guys. I was only kidding and NAH lead me into it!

Angel Cabrera is kind of a different breed of cat.

If it is a geographical restriction, then I would assume the board members at Augusta don't like New Zealanders. Maybe they didn't like the Lord of the Rings trilogy either.

They clearly have good taste, at least in movies.

Ah well coverage starts in about 3 hours so that's Ok. I mean how much Tiger A$$ kissing can you really take in 1 day anyway?

Read an article one time where a player (I forget who) said when he was on Tour it surprised him to see Jack Nicklaus close down a few bars.

So he's human? How about that!

I really like Kyung-Tae Kim's swing. It is smooth and relaxed.

Maybe it is all disguise though. He could be just wanting people to think he is human whenever in reality, he is really a demi-god.

Whoever said demi-gods don't drink?

I assume they would drink everyone under the table and suffer no hangover.

Good point.

Well, guys, I am off to see what kind of score I can follow yesterday's round up with. I'll catch you back here later.
