Friday's Featured Groups announced
quote:


9:14 a.m. – Fred Couples, Haotong Li, Joaquin Niemann
10:31 a.m. – Phil Mickelson, Rickie Fowler, Matt Kuchar
1:27 p.m. – Tiger Woods, Marc Leishman, Tommy Fleetwood
2:00 p.m. – Patrick Reed, Charley Hoffman, Adam Hadwin


No Spieth or Rory in the morning
I guess they are starting early with the Couples group so they can catch more of Tiger's round

Huh?

Rory and spieth tee off 20 minutes after Freddy. I think sometimes they actually chose not to show all the top guys for whatever reason

How long did it take him to read putts today?

War and Peace length or DL3 pamphlet length?


I'm not sure. I had a softball game so I had to listen to most of his round through my phone in my pocket. I play with a bunch of old arse guys and they kept freaking out because they couldn't figure out where the applause was coming from

Probably another one of those "golf was better on TV back in the day before Tiger ruined it by playing amazing golf" guys complaining about bonus internet golf.

I honestly don't know how you are a golf fan then

For someone to say they enjoy it better when one of the best players of all time doesn't play is assinine
And when another one of the greatest ever is trying to run away with it on day 1.

That ain't no golf fan.

More like 90 minutes. Fred's group should be through 18 by the time Tiger gets to the 4th hole or so.

I love the Masters and it's my favorite sporting event between football seasons.

But screw Augusta and their TV exclusivity. Every other major has wire to wire TV coverage and we get quarter coverage on Thurs/Fri and coverage starts on the weekend right when the top 6 guys tee off.

You said tiger wasn't relevant since 2009

In 2013 he won 5 tournaments including the players, was ranked 1 in the world, and won player of the year

I mean, they're giving us Kuch, Phil, Fowler, Couples and Tiger, which is a pretty solid slice of fan favorites

Plus Tiger would have won the Masters in 2013 if he didn't hit a perfect shot and hit the pin, bounce off, and splash down on Friday afternoon.

Don't know if it's been posted already, but they announced the featured groups for tomorrow. LINK

The guy freaking out about Couples should be happy.

By the time Tiger tees off you'll be able to watch Spieth on Amen Corner and then the live TV coverage starts at 2 central time.

Its not that hard to understand. I enjoy the broadcasts more when he is not on the course. The coverage bounces around more and everything isnt Tiger Tiger Tiger



I agree with this... BUT ESPN is gonna show EVRY SHOT by Tiger tomorrow.. Like it or not.... He is A HUGE draw.................

Showing every shot of tiger robs people of watching 1-2 shots total of the other golfers


That is so fricking immaterial it is hilarious people act like they notice it

It's not even true. If he's 7 shots back tomorrow afternoon, they'll skip his drives, for instance.

Unless he's in contention, I'm positive they won't show "every" shot of his on ESPN.
