    Here's my annual complaint about the lack of TV coverage for the Masters. At least they have some stuff on the app going for the morning hours, but it still sucks.

    Yep. Awful. Working from home tomorrow, but not really too much of a point.
    Yeah, it's pretty brutal. Doesn't start until 2-3pm. So you miss everyone that plays in the morning and only see parts of the guys playing rounds in the afternoon. I love it, but it could be so much better.


    Threw some action down on Rickie at 18 to 1 and Day at 7 to 1.
    I have Scott at 14-1, Bubba at 12-1. Put both of them in over a month ago. Have Rose at 33-1, Phil at 20-1, Oosthuizen at 28-1, DJ at 22-1 and Leishman at 75-1. Yeah, I went a bit crazy over the past month. All varying amounts. A couple of these would be really friggen nice to hit. Was trying to get players who have a chance with good odds. Feel like golf odds have been getting worse and worse lately.

    A lot of action there! I'm sure I'll put in some other plays throughout the weekend....I like betting on the golfer vs golfer matchups for single rounds.

    I was surprised RIckie's odds were that high. And Day's odds seemed a bit high at 7 to 1 considering how good he has been playing.

    Yeah, and considering Day as 2 top 3's at Augusta, I believe. I try not to take anything under 10-1 in golf. Just so tough to pick.

    The first featured group is Rickie, Zach Johnson and that asian amateur.

    Nice group to watch this morning. Working at home so I have the ipad right next to my work computer.

    Brutal start for this group. Jin all over the place in the woods and Fowler just hits a tree. Looks like my friends and I out there playing. Brutal.

    Nope and Amen Corner is now up. Think I am going to stick with this featured group though between Spieth, Rickie and DeChambeau.

    I had a par putt turn into an 11 in a high school match ... I strongly considered walking directly to my car and go home. I can't imagine starting off with a 10 in the masters.

    edit: holy shit, i just watched the video! I figured it was on a slope where it could run off the green. Not so much the case ...

    That was brutal. Made me uncomfortable just watching that.

    One of my favorites. Kinda tough pin location today, but wind didn't seem to act up too much, right? Picked up mid day but the morning and afternoon seemed good I think. Edit: I think I lied. It's whipping a bit

    Is there anything better than 13?

    Tough to see Ernie today at 1..he just lost it. Was probably embarrassed to mark or step back..I see they gave him a 9 now. Surprised day faltered on back. 15 played pretty tough. Rory still doesn't look interested. Something is up with him. Probably the minority but I'm glad Sergio came on late..regardless I think Jordan might run with it again.

    I thought Rory's body language was better today than it has been in a while.

    Really hope we have a close Sunday
