    Feeling great about betting Spieth at 8 to 1. Although no one ever goes wire to wire. Unless he's just going to blow everyone away a la Tiger in 97. Which wouldn't surprise me after watching his round yesterday.

    How is Tiger not a featured group this morning? The only chance anyone will have to see ANY of his round is streaming from amen corner through 16.

    Unbelievable. Is Spieth at least in one of the featured groups?

    Doesn't seem that way. The website says both featured groups start around noon

    It amazes me how badly they fuck this up.

    Going to the White Sox home opener so I won't get to see much today. Hopefully Spieth keeps it up!

    Yeah, man.

    Nice, enjoy. Tomorrow is sketchy for me. Have a ton of family in town and will be hosting.

    I may be wrong, but I think the featured groups are the same as yesterday

    Probably, which, no thanks. Head may explode if I watch Bubba whine his way around a course for 4 hours.

    Lots of people like Oosthuizen this week. Off to a good start today.

    I'll never so long as I live understand why the TV coverage doesn't start till 3. I just don't fucking get it. I'm sure there's some explanation (that I would find dumb and dismiss) but there's regular tournaments that are aired on golf channel in the afternoon then switch to NBC/CBS later. The worst is when they run out that one guy who's always like "thank you for watching. we're proud to bring you this coverage blah blah blah." Four hours of live coverage for the biggest tournament of the year. The Super Bowl pregame lasts longer than that.

    First group at the 11th green on streaming.

    Spieth looks like he has an easy birdie at 2. Just in front of the green in 2.

    Would love to see Compton make the cut. Awesome story.

    Middle of fairway at 3. Dude is ice cold.

    Tiger sticks it to 7 feet at 1. Looks like Spieth missed the green at 2, but should get up and down.

    This explains why the coverage sucks. They didn't even show the front 9 until the 90's!

    It was Augusta's decision not to put Tiger in a featured group.

    Thinking this leader board may looking pretty similar at the end of the day with a lot of the leaders going off in the morning.

    Yeah, put it in the bunker and rolled his 3rd shot 20 or so feet past. Two putt par.

    Spieth has 18 feet for birdie on 5.
