Just saw this today from practice yesterday
Goes to show how much planting of shrubs is done in the few days before
I bet the 12th will be in full bloom in a few days
Roll on the golf

With or without Obama's Plan, the Recession will end just like is has over the history of the USA.

Great thread. It's really gearing me up for the Masters 2012. Might even go hit some balls or putt on the carpet, now. Keep it coming, great stuff, altogether.

not many people around - hope augusta isn't in financial trouble like many other golf courses
altho i suspect the US govt would bail it out if it ever looked like closing.

While showing definite improvement Augusta isn't really the place to be out of position of the tee. That combined with a spineless caddie is enough to keep him from the top of the leaderboard.

harro is a contender
the harro stare is worth 5 shots
and that shuffle walk of his over hogan bridge will crush most competitors

'Pairings' for Rounds 1 & 2 are up.
McIlroy, Fowler, Day
Harrington, Ishikawa, Haas
McDowell, Woods, Allenby

Not a good draw for Gmac
Thought the last 3 major winners played together ?

conno16

Ishikawa and Haas have two tough days ahead of them
best start reading accountancy basics for dummies - at least will shorten the round
should also bring ipods or a book while harro and his brother-in-law mull over shots

So who's the first round leader that's going to (nearly) miss the cut... good old D.C. was good for that...

Think that only happens at the US PGA where the 3 major champions of that year tee off together.

Justin Rose to take over that baton

great interview with Jack on the masters website. always a thought provoking interview... unlike some of the present day monosyllibic sex-addicted zombies.

great insight into his '86 win + thoughts on present day swing changes.

makes a great comment re tiger overtaking his record - " he needs five more... thats a whole career for everybody else" - or words to that effect.

And a nice start to the 1st major-Diane Dougherty:eek:

I'm going to take this as the thread for all the Masters chat.

Anywho, Luke Donald would want to be passed at the top of the par 3 leaderboard.....NO ONE wins the main event if they win the par 3 comp. Money on him
