Had he made it we would be in a playoff.

And it wasn't that he missed it...it was how bad he missed it.

I bet CBS is not disappointed Koepka missed that shot.

It felt like a made for TV movie...almost like it was scripted.

But if that was the case surely someone would have bet big money on Tiger to win.

Tiger wouldn't have played that hole the same if he was only 1 up

You dont think Tiger plays 18 differently if he needs a 4?

You think Tiger would have intentionally played for bogey had he made it??

So many ifs or buts today with the way guys played. What if Molinari doesn’t go into the drink late? What if Tiger does go full laser focused in the last few holes?

Some of y’all are ridiculous.

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks that.

Even the announcer said, "I have never seen him miss a shot that bad."

What if Tiger didn’t get caught ramming skanks? Today would have been his 27th Major.

Lol

Tiger played 18 completely differently.

He basically played “not to go long”

Tiger threatened to pound down his girl again if he didn't miss it. He chose wisely.

Didn't he lay up from the fairway when he had a clear look at the green? The guy played uber-conservative on that last hole.

Tiger played it safe when he had a bigger lead.

And CBS would have loved a playoff in the Masters with Tiger

Yes.

Laayed up off the tee too. Used a 3 wood.

He had already hit his 3 wood off the tee before Koepka hit his birdie putt, but that second shot would’ve looked a lot different had Koepka made the putt.

Tiger basically made a swing where he knew he could avoid the tree and the only miss would’ve been right. That shot looks a lot different if he knows he has to make 4.

Molinari purposefully hitting it in the water twice so Tiger could win was even worse...

Chilling on the mantel above the fireplace. Same place he has been since he died in 2014.

The good thing is he hasn't had a drink in 5 years.

Exactly. He played it safe, knowing he had 5 shots to play with.

It sort of crossed my mind but doubt he really gave up his chance to win masters to let tiger have it
