Posted by John Coctostan
|
Over. He’s only 36 and is one of the two best in the world*
Posted by PapaDels
|
for sure. on the other hand, last time he was this hot in majors he went on an 11 year drought*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
I'll take the over and Scottie

|
Scottie at 9+ is bold*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
So, does Rory give himself the green jacket?*
Posted by bbonb
|
Kind of crazy to go from everyone wondering if you'll ever get it done to
Posted by GrandmotherPearlsJam
|
Illini bball ‘27-28*
Posted by ab75
|
Makes you surprised he hasn’t won this more. His game fits very well when on*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
He put in the prep. I read that he was dropping his girl at school, flying up to Augusta for

|
A traditional that’s close to the other ones, but is not*
Posted by bbonb
|
Jim's got his script down*
Posted by illini222
|
Jim is painful.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
He’s really bad. Andrew Catalan is so much better. I wish cbs had some balls*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Nice shot Rory *
Posted by MC
|
Lulz. *
Posted by harb
|
Rose can never quite go out and grab it at Augusta.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Don’t want to chase Jack’s record for finishing second in majors*
Posted by Potomac
|
Would love to see him win another major. Seems like a bridesmaid though*
Posted by CoronaTheirAss
|
That’s an impressive stat from Scottie. *
Posted by harb
|
Sam Burns with the putt of the week*
Posted by assassin
|
Yikes rory*
Posted by gvibes
|
Scottie is relentless *
Posted by PapaDels
|
I wanted that putt to fall so bad*
Posted by snipes824
|
Yes. I think -12 might be the #. I can see a bogey from Rory on 17 or 18*
Posted by PapaDels
|
Does everyone know that a top 12 (plus ties) finish earns an invite to next year's Masters?
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
Ties will not be resolved*
Posted by OWWDig
|
Rose pulled that basically a full cup, right? He just saw it move in that direction*
Posted by gvibes
|
Li had a 10 on 13? yikes*
Posted by gvibes
|
+8 on successive holes, and then birdied the next*
Posted by Potomac
|
Yikes Rose*
Posted by shua
|
Would love a Rors choke, Rose win but don't think it will happen sadly.*
Posted by nash
|
Just gakked a 5 footer.*
Posted by Toonces
|
Nah it’s likely over. Sucks.*
Posted by nash
|
That top 12 cutoff might help a couple guys get back next year
Posted by Potomac
|
Make that top 17 this time*
Posted by Potomac
|
This is sweet*
Posted by gvibes
|
Let's go, Rosey! *
Posted by Tuscy
|
Would love to see Rose win one.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Rory going to have get his shit figured out in a hurry if he wants to go b2b*
Posted by GrandmotherPearlsJam
|

I’d like to see Rosey win*

Feels like Scottie is primed for a run here.*

Posted by PapaDels
|
Oof thanks for playing Sam Burns*
Posted by PapaDels
|
This is going to be a ton of fun tomorrow. Will be interesting to see how Young handles
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Just can't have a Cam Young win here. Give me basically anyone else*
Posted by gvibes
|
We don’t like cam young?*
Posted by snipes824
|
I don't like cam young. you all can like who you want*
Posted by gvibes
|
What's your Cam hatred other than that he's awkward and a cold fish? *
Posted by Tuscy
|
hatred is probably too far. He is just miserable to watch. Doesn't look like he is having fun,
Posted by gvibes
|
Man i don’t get this. He’s quiet yes, but doesn’t seem like a dick. And he gives good quotes. Plus
Posted by John Coctostan

Oof Cam *

Hatong Li says hold my beer *

The old Rors has returned *
Posted by jdl

The quality of golf being played right now is incredible *

scottie and spieth having a contest on who can leave more birdies on the course.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
Rory is using all of that lead cushion in these first 2 holes*
Posted by GrandmotherPearlsJam
|
If you took rory away, this is an all time packed leaderboard with great names within 3*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Getting interesting*
Posted by CoronaTheirAss
|
Campbell 3 under through 10
Posted by jdl

Will be a tough go for him
Posted by jdl

Scottie Scheffler has joined the chat*
Posted by PapaDels
|
Caught up after playing a late afternoon 9 myself. Hot damn what a run
Posted by John Coctostan
|
The Thursday morning / Friday afternoon waves (including Rory) had a nice advantage.
Posted by Orangeillini
|
Rory is now nuclear.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Tigeresque*
Posted by CoronaTheirAss
|
Ridonkulous*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
Lol, Bryson has been a disaster in bunkers the last couple days.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
it's almost like having 6 iron length wedges is not ideal*
Posted by jdl
|
rory might actually be freed up. goodness*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
So hot right now *
Posted by uofi1998
|
he's truly 2 golfers. all that genius, then dumps a wedge 20 yds short into a trap. but then
Posted by John Coctostan
|
then a pretty terrible mess of 8. almost saved by a great putt. he's like inches away
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Jason Day looks like he's wearing pajama pants*
Posted by assassin
|
malbon is awful*
Posted by Phytynlini
|
Tommy looks like a frumpy schlub too*
Posted by Phytynlini
|
Rose tied for the lead and getting good bounces of rakes. living the good life*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Campbell will play the weekend
Posted by jdl
|
Masters coverage is just ridiculous. You can see every shot from every player.
Posted by PapaDels
|
ridiculously awesome you mean*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Absolutely *
Posted by PapaDels
|
My pool picks are toast already
Posted by jdl
|
Watching it get harder and harder as the went on was delightful. Hope they keep it dialed up*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
It could get really fast.
Posted by Chicago1995
|
looks like easier pins today. but it still appears pretty firm even early*
Posted by John Coctostan
|

The guy featured in my post at the top of the thread I imagine.*

|
these Masters Merchandise sales numbers are staggering
Posted by Sounder The Masters will do about $70 million in merchandise sales this week.
|
I usually spend about $2500 on merch each time there*
Posted by Ron McDon
|
that's a solid lam x 2.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
Merch line was crazy. Everyone taking home lawn gnomes*
Posted by CoronaTheirAss
|
They closed the line to the North building Tuesday morning.
Posted by Chicago1995
|
I missed one by 10 minutes.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Im glad the gnome thing is going away.*
Posted by Ron McDon
|
Last year for gnomes. *
Posted by harb
|
Gnome no mo.
Posted by osklister
|
Why they can afford to sell concessions so cheaply*
Posted by bjl63
|
I definitely have had someone buy merch for me on multiple occasions*
Posted by Sounder
|
Do you also have people get you tshirts from concerts you didn't attend? *
Posted by haighter
|
Yeah, there's a good article in the Athletic on this
Posted by ATL
|
Pretty great leaderboard early. Also, LIV guys, woof
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Go Jason Day!*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
46 is young, don't say stuff like that.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
I still consider Reed a LIV guy, mainly because he’s a prick.*

|
it's very early. but it kinda looks spicy out there. may get some super high scores this week*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Lots of aces at the par 3 contest

Got to bucket list at Augusta today for a practice round. Holy shit, that was awesome.

I was there Tuesday too!
Posted by Chicago1995

Posted by Chicago1995
|
Nice!*
Posted by shua
|
16 was lots of fun. Course is of course amazing and much hillier than expected
Posted by CoronaTheirAss

We sat at 16 a couple times too and watched the skipping. Great fun.
Posted by voiceofreason

Awesome. It’s the absolute best*
Posted by John Coctostan

Looks good on you....

Feeling the Brits this year... rooting for Rose, and feel like Fleetwood or Bobby Mac may emerge*
Posted by uofi1998
|
calling bobby mac a brit. He's be right pissed with you*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Wat?*
Posted by ATL
|
I'm aware Scotland is on the island of Great Britain. But he's a Scot first and foremost*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Scotland is part of Britain. You'd insult him by calling him English.*
Posted by ATL
|
Fleetwood Mac, on the other hand, was 100% British.
Posted by complainant
|
As is Robert MacIntyre.

A Tradition That Doesn’t Look Like The Others^
Posted by bbonb
|
Rahm, Scottie, Fitz, Young, Xander, Bobby Mac. Winner is coming from that group*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Seems right. I'd love to see Tommy make a run at it. *
Posted by Tuscy
|
Or Rosey. *
Posted by Tuscy
|
I love the look of this year's gnome!...
Posted by shua
|
Are there any Illini playing this week? Heading down to Augusta now for a practice round
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Not playing but the team should be there
Posted by jdl Also Detry would be there but took the cash instead.
|
Campbell still in the field thanks to win last fall. he's got basically 0 chance of contending tho*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
obviously, he's 2 under through 2*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
3 under thru 3 after a long birdie putt. wild*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
hah forgot about him*
Posted by gvibes
|
do not believe so*
Posted by gvibes
|
We need to prevent pros from regaining amateur status to keep the coolness
Posted by gvibes
|
i don't know, he's a middle aged former mini tour guy. I'm OK with it.
