Welcome to the (I guess) official thread to the 73rd playing of the Masters Golf Tournament from the Augusta National Golf Club. Now the game that we love and it's season is now officially, let's see who will be walking the 18th fairway ready to slip the coveted green jacket on late Sunday afternoon.
We all know who's in the field. While I'm posting this thread early, we can discuss and predict who's going to win.

A couple of quick notes. I am not the most computer savvy person in the world. I will try my best to post everyone on Zuben's ping list. If I miss anyone, I apoligize in advance. Also, you may not see any fancy graphics and stuff. Please feel free to post any Masters related photos, graphics and the like, to liven up the thread, thanks!!!
Finally, let's keep the discussion related to the event and the play at hand, not any unproven and shouldn't even be mentioned chat concerning the number one player in the world.....OK? OK!!!!
HAVE AT IT EVERYBODY!!!
If Tiger wins, is he alone at second with the Masters? I know Arnold Palmer won four and Jack Nicklaus won 6, but have any others won 5?
Nice warmup tourney, but I can wait until the majors start next month with the TPC.
I will take the easy route and go with Tiger. He seems to be in form after his long layoff.
Ditka by 5 strokes.
Place Holder...will do some pics and stuff later in the week.
Not sure Tiger has all his game yet, but it would be something for him to be in the hunt on the back on Sunday, like tied for the lead at 16?
G
I’m going! Practice round only, but I’m making my first ever trip there...leaving tomorrow!!!
1. Tiger
2. Someone else
Springtime has arrived.
We are attending Wednesday through Sunday. Prettiest place on earth, but so treacherous!
Cleveland, when you stand by any of those greens, you know why it is a major.
PINGS TO THE GOLF PEEPS!!!!
Put me on the Masters ping list - please and thank you.
Great!!!
Have fun!!!
Sounds like you’ve been there before. I’m getting more jealous by the second!
Wow, that was quick! I see I am already on the list.
Tiger will be 2nd alone, behind Jack.
Short of that I'd like to see a fight to the finish on Sunday between Tiger and (19-year old) Rory McIlroy.
But ... but ... but ... they still don’t allow women to be members!
Is it possible that the Masters will outlive The New York Times?
PINGING THE ONES I MESSED UP.......
cause, I’m stupid, like Zero is......
We’re all here now!!
I’m watching the ‘86 Masters highlightds on TGC that Jack won. He just eagled 15 and hit a great shot at 16. I still get that Chris Matthews feeling as I watch it!
