    Yesterday I said Tiger would shoot 1 under.  Today my guess is he shoots 2 over.

    I think he'd gladly take 2 over today

    Brutal conditions for the guys with late tee times.  Wind all over the place.  12 is going to be a mess....and Spieth just put 2 in the water there.

    I missed 11 and 12, but he looks better today than yesterday, to me at least

    Kevin Na and Charl Schartzel will run him down!  Jk.  Datagolf has Scheffler at 57% to win after rd 2.
    I've seen quite a few Pearl Jam shows.

    anything could happen, but dude is the hottest player on the planet, probably the hottest player in a while, and has a sizable lead. Some good players up there, but tough to see anyone running him down.

    Speith blew a 5 shot lead on the back 9 in 2016. Anything can happen.

    Similar players in some ways too. Flushing irons, making every single 10 foot putt imaginable.

    That was an all time collapse

    This is incredible

    Since Bryson stated Augusta is a par 67 he is 43 over par in 8 rounds based on a par 67 measure. What a fucking tool bag

    There were a lot of fun Bryson stats floating around yesterday.  He's such a clown.

    So that Scheffler guy is pretty good huh?  Insane run he's on right now.  I wish Tiger missed the cut....now CBS is going to show every single shot from a guy who is 10 shots off the lead.  I mean, I get it.  He moves the needle and everyone wants to see him but it takes away from other guys who are actually contending in a major.

    That chip in on 3 sure did suck the fun out of the final round Masters.

    What a run for Scheffler.  Has won 4 out of 6 at 4 very different courses.  Type of shit Tiger used to do back in the day.

    And classic Rory with the backdoor top 5.  Dude always shows up on Sunday when he has no chance to win.

    That round by Rory was one of the best I have ever seen. Incredible. 
    Australian Grand Prix. Masters. Yanks/Sox.  What a day!

    Nobody in this generation of players wants to take the reigns and run with it.  Is the money too good?  Family distractions?  I don't think it is because there is more parity than there has been in the past.  We'll see.    Only a select few can get to the consistency of Tiger in his prime (which was a 10 year period).  

    Maybe Scheffler can be that player.  I doubt it though as he seems pretty grounded and may not prioritize winning at all costs versus family.

    I found myself rooting against Scheffler but not really knowing why.  I think it was just because I wanted to see a close finish.  I don't want to root for Smith much either because of that filthy rat's nest he wears on his head (ha).

    Because he was leading. The same reason me and everybody was rooting against him (unless you had money on him). Such is the life of being the leader on Sunday of a major with a three-stroke (or more) lead.

    Agree completely.  The chip in sucked.  I like Scheffler but I wanted to see some drama.  I can't believe how that changed everything.  

    My wife doesn't like Cam.  I tend to like people who dress or look weird playing golf.  I root against douchers like Patrick Reid and Bryson.

    Yeah I was rooting against him. I had some money on Rory winning and then I also had Morakowa with a top 5. How about those two chip ins though? Pretty awesome

    Awesome is right!  I also loved watching complete rounds, with no commercials on masters.com. Watched Tiger's complete round on Thursday and Rory on Sunday.  Fantastic seeing the entire round in sequence rather the selected shots on CBS.  CBS is almost unwatchable because the broadcast is so scripted.
