re: Official: The Masters thread : Bubba Watson wins!

I broke even on my bets had one with the field vs Tiger/Rory then bet Phil, Westwood, Luke Donald to win at between 12-1 and 18-1

I thankfully didn't have any change on this one. I may have to get something going for the open in a few weeks

It pains me to hear Phil talking about the 4th hole. He says that if he misses that green to the left, he'll get up and down 85% of the time. He said he could hit the green, but be on the right of the hole and have a hard time making par. So that shot that he hit, while not exactly where he wanted it, would have been fine with him until it hit the stands and richocheted into the thick brush. (by the way, Phil hit two shots this week that showed me parts of Augusta that I've never seen) So Phil was fine if he missed to the left, but it ended up so far left that he was screwed. I thought he drove the ball better than I've ever seen him drive it.

I thought he was going to get #4 today.

Bubba can wear whatever the frick he wants to and he'll still dress better than all those Euro's or flat-billed Americans.

All white with pink lettering looks great with a green jacket!

I think Phil SHOULD have gone back to the tee to be honest, but being Phil he didn't. Hindsight is always 20/20. He could have easily chipped that first one out, made bogey and it would be a mute point, and he would have been making another Krispy Kreme run in the morning.

I agree with this, they all look gay as frick.

I think that's exactly why he didn't go back. He was very confident that he could get up and down from where the gallery walked, or the bunker on that side.

Very true.

Wow! over 200 pages

Well done everyone, glad I could be a part of the early stages of it.

For those that don't follow Jason Gore on twitter...or have twitter, he sent this picture to Bubba with the tagline "the man punted Baxter"


Also fwiw, Bubba sent a tweet about being home and finally getting to change his first diaper, and responded to Dana Jacobsen saying that there were more tears over the first diaper . You just can't NOT like this guy. Just wish we got to see the General burn out down Magnolia Lane

Also, not sure if it's been posted since I'm about 2 pages behind, but saw someone asking about the outside presentation and if they just didn't do it b/c it was dark. Apparently they had lights out lighting up the green...


There was also a story written yesterday about Bubba trying to get out of all the stuff afterwards, b/c he just wanted to get home. Said he said a helicopter, and then realized Charl is a pilot; but it never came to fruition.
