Wow, I can't believe how poorly Mickelson drove the ball yesterday. He missed about every fairway and he still shot an even Par. I'd hate to see what he could do if he could get his swing right off the Tee.

I had the worst stomach bug of my life last night....I was hoping to make myself feel better by watching Masters coverage all morning.

Alas....coverage sucks! Watching golf on friday is no bueno.

We have an hour before the real good coverage happens. I can't wait. Even if you don't like watching golf, the Masters is special. People who don't watch are cheating themselves out of some great stuff.

IMO.

Quiros and McIlroy...some mega-bombers there. I swear, Jhonattan Vegas may be the most inaccurate driver of the ball I've ever seen on Tour, it seems like every time I watch him he's not even close to hitting the fairway.

If I was DLIII, I'd give Ricky Barnes serious Ryder Cup consideration..the guy just plays huge in Majors. It would be a questionable pick, but the guy does seem to rise to the occasion.

#16 -My favorite par-3 in the world.
It's top 3 for me for sure, but I love the island at Sawgrass the most.

I love #16 because the green is very big, so there's different irons going into the hole depending where the pin is. The back pin left, where they usually have it on Sunday, is a makeable hole-in-one shot and I would love to see somebody do that in the final round to go on to win the Masters. Problem is that you have longer club, so that decreases the margin for error a bit. The front right pin probably has 2-3 clubs less into it, but it's tucked behind the bunker and if you just miss a little left or short, you'll probably spin back and be 30 feet away.

#17 at Sawgrass was a brilliant concept that got played out over time. It's only about a 9-iron or a PW depending where the flag is. If they put the pin out to the right, you're not going to make hole-in-one and you're probably not going to hit one close because you'll have to play safe.

Anyway...this is sure turning into a fun Masters.

I want the golf world to explode. So I want Tiger to make a huge charge to the top this weekend and get his swerve back.

It sure would be nice if the Masters would finally enter... oh, say the 1970's and actually, like, you know, broadcast the darn thing. They try to make like they're so high and mighty but imagine if the Super Bowl was played and we only saw the final 5 minutes of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd quarters plus only the final 10 minutes of the 4th.

Oh, and we get to stream any play snapped between the 20 and 30 yard lines online if we want. Whoop-de-stinkin-doo. :rolleyes:

Tiger got hot today down the stretch. But he's had good 2nd rounds before in this slump of his.

It will be interesting to see if he can build upon this with another solid round.

That 8 iron on 18 was a helluva shot around the tree.... finishes the round with a nice birdie.

That is my favorite par 3 too... I would love to play that hole before I die.

Such a great hole.

It is an iconic hole. Even if not the most difficult like 16 at Augusta, it is just an image that moves you.
