    They haven't even been playing an hour and they're already on the 6th. How much faster do you want it lol. 
    Ha well less about the pace and more just about the sheer number of golf shots and action. It’s limkted, to say the least.
    That I can understand haha. There are definitely a lot more commercial breaks. I'm flipping between the match play, Cubs game, and KY vs Auburn game.

    Between Kuchar’s recent antics and his alligator arms debacle, I’ve done a 180 on the guy. Thought he was a good one. Kind of thinking he’s more of a douche now. 
    No one will ever come close to Phil for being disingenuous and fake. He is the all time goat, but Kuchar is on the scale
    “disingenuous and fake”? :thinking:

    Nice job Kisner.  

    Next Ryder Cup captain needs to factor in heart when they pick their next captain’s picks. When in Europe, pick the most European like US players.

    I agree though hindsight is 20/20.  Kisner would have looked awfully good on that course, but what one of the 3 were you leaving off?  Phil would have been the one, but good luck with that.

    Not sure how well he sets up at Whistling...

    I LOVE the Master's. Definitely my favorite major. And I like how they have the majors scheduled now.

    Agreed. By far my favorite major.  Can’t wait to spend the weekend watching the action.

    Masters is my favorite sporting event of the year, aside from the Yankees being in the world series. Will be opening the shore house next weekend.  Doing work in the morning. Masters in the afternoon, hopefully with some windows open.

    That said, the US Open is a close 1a.

    I watch the Masters final round broadcasts on YouTube. I watched so many of them last season. I think I'll go boot one up now.

    I worked the 2013 Masters Tournament and have an open invitation to come back and work it again if I want. Maybe I'll share my experience on here if y'all are interested. Only reason I haven't returned to work the tournament is because it's about a 10 day commitment.

    I've got my first tournament of the season this weekend. It's a 2 day event and of course it's 100% rain Saturday and 60% Sunday. At least the temp will be low 70s. So just annoying rain but not rain AND cold. First tournament of last season was 35 and 41 degrees lol.

    Then Monday I'm flying down to Jacksonville FL to finalize my job offer, look at a few places to live, etc. Looking forward to 12 months of golf :grin:

    Played one hole today before hearing the air horn blow to signal lightning and a thunderstorm in the area. Waited and waited but never got to go back out. Weather doesn't look any better for tomorrow so they've cancelled the whole tournament. Great season opener...

    Looking for ideas...

    Have a mini golf trip coming up next month. Last year there were four of us and we played match play both days. This year it's 3 days/3 rounds and the amount of people has ballooned to nine (in my opinion way too many-but whatever). We're trying to figure out how to conduct a little tournament for those three rounds. The ninth person apparently is a terrible golfer so he might not be on a team and just be sort of a wild card somehow. 

    Anyway, can you guys think of a way we can score this, with four teams and one random wild card, to eventually end up with one champion?
