I have to say that I love the game of golf. It’s a mental and physical game. However, pro golf is about as interesting as listening to the grass grow. I was glad to see Tiger win the masters again. And, I have much respect for Ben Hogans, even read his book. My clubs are square groove Ping Eye 2 and my putter a first generation Scotty Cameron, so this isn’t my first rodeo....lol!!

I had some Ping Eye 2’s back in the day. Liked them a lot, but it’s been a while. Still using a Cameron, myself; although it’s a newer one I picked up last year.

It's a three man race, Matsuyama is going to have to make some serious mistakes to lose. And that is certainly possible at Augusta.

Who’s the third, in your opinion?

I keep thinking about how he played the back yesterday and how Rose played it on Thursday. Sunday is obviously a different story, but I can’t help but wonder if there’s some magic out there somewhere. I enjoy watching them all, but I love a good shootout on Sunday afternoon. The ho-hum, several shot leads that last all day on Sunday are nowhere near as exciting.

This Zalatoris kid is fun to watch. That shot he hit into 15 yesterday was incredible.

I think Amen Corner will be telling. If Matsuyama can keep a 2, or even 3 shot lead intact through 11-12-13, I think he’s got it in the bag. He’s looking pretty dialed in right now, so I think it’s ultimately his to lose. That’s to say with half the course left, I don’t see anyone catching him, he’ll have to move in their direction for it to get exciting.

I won’t lie, though, I wouldn’t mind seeing him make a few mistakes and either Rose, Jordan, or Shauffele jump back into the mix along with him and Zalatoris.

Been watching all the coverage. It’s great to see it back to playing as it should. November wasn’t the same at all.

I think if Matsuyama shoots level to 1 under he’ll win. Rose has bottled it again. Although I really hope that Zalatoris finishes well, he’s been a joy to watch.

As with most masters tournaments though, the back nine could change everything.

What happened to the most interesting person in golf, Davis Love III !!?? ??

That crown was usurped by DJ before he met Gretzky’s daughter.

I remember some time back, on a Saturday morning when I was a kid watching the hunting channel. This show called something like “The Real Rough” came on and it was an outdoors/hunting/fishing show starring DLIII.

Rose is so hit or miss. He kinda reminds me of Phil in that regard. When he’s on, everyone else is playing for second. Conversely, when he’s on, he could three-putt from 7’.
