a freepin wedge from 155....wow.....I use my 8 iron
Man, how non-PC can you get Augusta?
First, you won’t allow women members. Then you go and let some guy named “Bubba” win the Masters!
/sarc
theys all white vimen!
Great shot by a great golfer, Bubba Watson!
I’m happy Bubba won (how can you not love a Master’s champion named Bubba?) but was rooting for Phil. Two triples in the tournament and he still finished only two shots back. He should have won going away and this could have been his last opportunity for another Master’s - the young guns are rising and he’s not getting any younger.
Freddie always seems to raise his game for The Master's - I think he has only missed the cut once in the last twenty-five years. But yes, 52 is old to be playing stroke-play championship level golf on a course as demanding as Augusta National, against a bunch of twenty-and-thirty somethings. Jack Nicklaus won his last major (the 1986 Master's) at 46, and that stands as the oldest player to win a major.
I slightly remember something maybe earlier that a commentator said about his swing style and how it would physically take a toll on him. Something about his knees being unable to stay in tact, or shoulders and elbows becoming a problem. Years back about his swing being too much or something. I remember the discussion about him having to change his style of hitting. so long ago, I can’t really recall.
I just don’t get why Phil didn’t re-Tee-Off with his unplayable lie. Biggest brain fart I’ve ever seen from such a seasoned pro.
Tiger torqued his left kneee by rotationin from a powered knee uncoil as opposed to rotating the hips.....the load is consumin and it did
one of those things Clint.....if that ball had come out better on the 1st hit......Phil might be wearin that jacket
We were pulling for Phil big time. Even after he hacked it out he put it in the bunker remember, it was like a nightmare.
yep....golf is like that....I’m most proud of the course....that bad boy kicked some pro golfer butt !!!!
(a) Jim Nantz broadcasts golf and basketball. Where do you get that he's a liberal?
(b) The guy vacations with the Bushes. Not exactly flaming lib stuff.
Nantz is a lib deep down...he says what he needs to to get along and “be included”
Good for Bubba. He seems like a great guy.
So what?

Yep and a pink neon driver. I seriously did not think he had a chance until the last nine. He is a really long driver; but I thought his short game was weak until the last nine. He deserved to win because he played a good game. I was rooting for Michelson but the triple bogie got him. Then I was rooting for Louis, the South African. Imagine a double eagle. The last one being 1994. He is a good player. I think he choked or got nervous those last two holes. Anyway, Bubba deserved to win because of the last nine. He started to get on fire.
