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

Phil's gotta be the favorite tomorrow, I hope he holds it together and play like he did today. That was fun to watch. I wouldn't mind bubba making a run either.

He's definitely in it, I would just rather Phil or bubba win it

I'll be surprised if Watson is in the hunt when they make the turn tomorrow.

This is set up perfectly for Phil. It's his for the taking.

I'm sad Tiger and Rory decided to not give us the big 3 down the stretch that we wanted

I can't believe that Rory threw up a 77 today. It just shows that he's still young, and he has to learn how to pull out of a tailspin before it kills his tournaments. If he does this a few more times I'm going to wonder if this will always be a concern with him. Once is a fluke, twice is concerning, but if it happens again in the near future (of a major), it will become a trend.



Phil is making reservations for Krispy Kreme on Monday morning. He's already got his wardrobe picked out.




Did ya'll hear Hunter Mahan speaking about Phil? "Nobody loves this tournament more than Phil. He puts on his jacket as soon as he gets off of the plane, and wears it around here all week." The reporters laughed, and you know that the players mock Phil for it, but Hunter did add, "He does that out of total respect and the pride that he has in this tournment."

and pink writing on his hat... and pink writing on his shirt... and pink stipes on his shoes...

And Bobby Jones & Clifford Roberts will be rolling over in their graves.

Those corpses are going to be dizzy. They were already rolling over after Tiger punted his 9 iron yesterday on the 16th tee box.

I saw the clip about Nicklaus, Palmer, and Player being the honorary starters and how Phil was sitting in the back with his Green Jacket. Thought it was pretty cool.

he's 23 years old. The fact that he's been in position so many times in a major to "throw it away" is pretty amazing. His comeback after the masters last year to dominate the us open should tell you all you need to know about his makeup.

I kind of expected this out of Rory and Tiger. I actually didn't think either of them or Phil would win because of how good the whole Tour is right now. That being said, I'm not surprised at all to see Phil in the hunt, but I also wasn't expecting Rory and Tiger to be this far out of it. I was kind of figuring somewhere around 20th for all 3 of them.
