high drama getting started at 15 with eagle putts for Tiger and Phil...

I would love a 4 way playoff between Tiger, Phil, Kenny and chad......
Phil with a tap in for bird at 17 to go to -11 and Tiger needs a chip in
Tiger bangs it off the tree at 18, he’s done for. Phil chunks it out of the fairway bukner
He can always use his wedgie! That should get him in the hole!
CBS is guilty of being narrow minded. Could not keep their cameras of Woods even though he was not in the running of the championship.
Do you realize that Tiger finished at 8 under. As well as John Merrick, Steve Flesch, Shingo Katayama. And we saw very little coverage of these golfers.

One of the best Masters since Jack Nicklaus in 1986
Well now that Tiger’s way out of it I’ll pick Chad Campbell even though Kenny Perry appears to be very consistent.
CBS heavily promoing the Kenny Perry ‘oldest man to win a major’ angle. He will have a long time to look over the water shots at 15/16
Kenny Perry & Cabrera both long over 15. Chad Campbell stiffs it at 16 to within a few feet!
What’s the purse for 1st place?
I agree. When Cabrera won, the announcers went dead silent for a pointedly long time. It was incredibly insulting - those announcers were soul garbage. CBS hit a new low, which is saying something.
usually about 1 million, although Augusta declines to relese figures
