I declare this to be the OFFICIAL 2012 MASTERS THREAD

[brianmanahan]

I only like Tiger

why is that, care to elaborate hmm?

 

[ultimatebob]

I'm rooting for Rory Mcilroy, mostly because Golf needs a new phenom to replace Tiger Woods.

 

[BUTCH1]

Did anyone else kinda enjoy the Tiger Woods meltdown today?

After ESPN broke into their regular broadcast to let everyone know that Tiger hit two birdies on the first few holes (something that they would NEVER do for any other player even if it was the final round), I couldn't help but start rooting for someone else.

Like him or not he does have 4 Masters wins and is the current Majors wins leader (14) still playing. It looked like he had his problems with the driver under control when he won at bay hill but the gremlins came back out. Looking forward to today's final round, the young swede birdieing 4/5 coming in and Phil with an incredible 30 for the back nine makes for an exciting finish. I'm kinda pulling for Bubba Watson myself, fun player to watch and damm, he can smack the shit out of a golf ball..

 

[brianmanahan]

LOL, poor phil on hole 4. still, he's due for such a ridiculous mess up at a major, it's been a few years.

 

[KLin]

lol @ bubba and louis on the 17th screwing up their drives.

 

[davmat787]

lol @ bubba and louis on the 17th screwing up their drives.

Yet they both managed to par, with Bubba almost managing a birdie out of it. Nice par save shots after their drives. Go Bubba!

 

[KLin]

Definitely nice saves for both of them.

 

[KLin]

Holy crap at the double eagle by oosthuizen at the 2!!

 

[brianmanahan]

my money on louis, with a double eagle he deserves it!

 

[lupi]

he deserves to win with that shot out of the trees almost next to the hole.

 

[Printer Bandit]

bubba for the win

 

[brianmanahan]

he deserves to win with that shot out of the trees almost next to the hole.

yeah that shot was a beast. gj bubba!

he also owns the original general lee car, thats gotta be worth something.

overall bubba had a better run, 4 birdies in a row 13-16 i believe, thats more skill than louis' double eagle on 4. still, that double eagle was incredible.

 

[BUTCH1]

Incredible shot on the 2nd playoff by Bubba, damm, he was 40 YARDS DEEP in the woods but somehow got a blistering hook to ten feet, one of if not the most amazing Masters shots I've ever seen, you could tell by the direction it took when it landed on the green the ridiculous amount of spin he put on that ball..

 

[fustercluck]

Great play all around. It takes a lot to earn that Green Jacket. Bubba has crazy eyes, max focus! Also he looks a lot like Andy Kaufman, who also had crazy eyes.

I hate all of you for keeping this sport alive...

It cuts into Family Guy reruns on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

I was rooting for Bubba all day. The best thing about this Masters was how little air time Tiger received. Nice to see him crash and burn again. His ego will never allow him to climb out of the hole he dug for himself.

I think his ego makes being a non-contender very painful, he might come back in a major though, who knows. But back to Bubba, gotta love a guy that taught himself to swing, never had a coach. He hails from Baghdad FL a tiny town in the panhandle, went to collage to get a degree after he had his tour card, he told his caddie, "if I've got a swing, I've got a shot", can move the ball all over, all self-taught. That my friends is "talent" personified.

Let's not get into a debate over the Masters.
The last thing this forum needs is more masters debaters.

Ha. My first time watching golf and I sat down to that. I was like, "Is that good?"
