    I need some help from some of you fantasy golf brighter minds. I’m in a masters pool. I can select two golfers from the top 12 in world golf rankings. Three golfers outside of the top 12. My best four will make up the total combined score which determines the winner. So, who are some picks to click? I have a few thoughts but would welcome any insight.

    Gotta figure tiger is playing at this point.

    I can’t stand azinger 
    I would agree on Tiger. If he is still so brittle where he is nervous he'll wake up on Thursday and not be feeling good enough to play than he wouldn't be still contemplating playing at this point.
    I guess I was wrong.  Still a game time decision.

    Hard to go wrong with any of those guys in the top 12 besides Hideki since he has some injury concerns.  I'd prob stay away from Hovland too since he's so bad at chipping.  That is huge for Augusta and he's ranked 209th out of 210!  If he just had a decent short game he'd be winning a ton.

    Koepka and Spieth would both be good plays outside the top 12.  Zalatoris, Kisner, Ftizpatrick are all in good form too.

    Thanks man.  I've pretty much locked in my lineup for the most part.  Went Xander and Morikawa for the top 12.  Oustide top 12 I'm waffling between Koepka, Conners, Louis and Leishman.  Conners and Leishman are wild cards, but could be a ball-strikers weekend (Conners) with potentially soft conditions after a few days of rain.  Leishman always seems to play well there.  We all know about Louis in majors.  He is paired with Tiger on Thursday which does concern me a bit with what that could bring.  Have another day to decide.
    By the way, the Corridor recommendation was spot on!

    I'm all in on Brooks this week.  Took him in the one and done and bet him to win for a pretty large amount.  Burns top 10 and Bryson to miss the cut.  I'm sure I'll throw in a bunch more live bets as the weekend comes.  And I have way too many DK lineups out there.  Going to be a great weekend!!

    It won’t happen but the Tiger health narrative is getting old.  I hope they focus on golf going forward and not on if he can walk 18 holes because it rained.

    It's great that he's back playing, but holy shit the Tiger fans boy and media losing their minds over every little thing he does is beyond exhausting.

    Morikawa to win
    Rory to win

    Okay, so I'm watching the replay of Tiger's tee shot on 11 on Masters.com and I hear "Oh my god, what the f*ck".  Was not expecting that.

    edit:  audio now pulled.

    Also heard him yell "Fuck off!" when his ball spun off the green on 9.
    I've seen quite a few Pearl Jam shows.

    Cam Smith is unreal with his putter.  Wouldn't be surprised at all if he just runs away with this.
