    Apparently The Masters app has Tiger listed as in the field....has to be a mistake.

    Yea I saw that too..I guess he hasn't officially bailed yet. Maybe he will play?? During past interviews he repeatedly said how proud he was to finish 10th or whatever he finished that year after a long layoff. Could have won possibly if his approach on 15 didn't hit flag stick then go in water.

    He's probably listed because he's a past winner (and not in his 70's)

    There is a certain date you have to enter/not enter not sure when though. Actually if he does it too late it will cost the next guy up a spot which would be a dick move. Maybe he will play. Wouldn't shock me.

    The website has him listed as an invitee but the app has him in the field. There is no way he is playing

    Crazy how the guy still moves the needle, even with all the good players

    Yep it would be great..no one really knows where he's at since he practices and plays on his own property. Actually Notah has the scoop I'm sure haha

    Agree, no way he plays and I hope he doesn't attempt to play. That would draw all the attention to him which would suck because this Masters is wide open. So many guys could win this thing.

    I read somewhere there is no deadline to announce you are playing if you're a past champion. He could actually just show up on that Thursday if he wants to.

    Totally disagree. Any tourney with tiger is for the best. Especially now since he's the "comeback" story. He will always get all the attention. You don't like hearing brandle critiquing him 24/7?? ;)

    I think you have to commit by the Monday before the 1st round

    I don't need tiger at the masters and highly doubt he's there..my early pick is bubba..I predict he overpowers the course and they look to "bubba proof" it by '17. He's had a good start to year.

    remember this is not a sanctioned pga event, it's augusta rules, so if tiger wanted to play he'd probably have to notify by wednesday but here's the thing...

    he's not playing! :lol:

    Good stuff Juggy. You'll get there soon. I'm playing 3 straight days this weekend, I can't wait to not be able to walk come Monday night :lol:

    Back to Eldrick....It does seem odd that he hasn't come out and say he's not playing.

    Very strange especially since it will cost someone a spot. Maybe this will be his Jordan "I'm back" moment?? Haha

    I read into this yesterday. If you qualify, you have a tee time for Thursday. Tiger hasn't said he won't play (publicly) so he'll have a tee time. He won't take someone's spot if he doesn't show.

    Well, that's what I read on the internet...

    So your talking about the winner at the shell to qualify? That's the only spot left right?

    Holy hell. First swing of the club since September or so. 54 on the front, few solid shots. Got a little better on the back but put a 170 yard tee shot to 18 inches, granted with a nice bounce. That's what keeps you coming back. Probably going to be my best shot of the year

    Don't have a score for the round. Course was empty and we played 3 on 3 best ball match play. Was a blast. Lost $100 on the last hole though, all tied and we were in better shape after the tee shot...god dammit
  • Cliffy6745Cliffy6745 Posts: 33,828
    Official, no tiger in the masters. Probably a smart move

    I don't know Cliffy, I need Verne yelling "IN YOUR LIFE" when the ball goes in :lol:

    Funny thing is, this is the 2nd time I've seen this shot today. Greatest shot I've ever seen

    I love that angle. It shows the slope and how much the ball actually came back down to the hole. Although I do concur with Empty. The 'In your life!' line is spine tingling.

    The call is phenomenal, I just love that angle. Really shows how insane the break was, tiger walking the friggen ball into the hole and the crowd. Someone needs to dub Verne over that

    And yeah, definitely the best shot I have ever seen. Ripped Chris dimarco's heart out

    That is the best, thanks for sharing. I also love how awkward many of the hi-fives looked between Tiger and Steve over the years. And there were many hi-five moments between them. I am pissed he is officially out of the Masters. Golf tourneys are just not the same w/o Tiger if you ask me….especially at the event they call, "A tradition unlike any other"...
