The Masters

Anyone else watching? What do you think of the course changes? Cheering for anyone?

I'm cheering for Weir and Ames, both Canadian, but my sentimental favourite is Phil Mickelson. He's always been my favourite golfer, and I'd love to see him take it again this year.

But maybe that's the problem. Everyone's talking that with the lengthening of the holes and the narrowing of fairways, there are only a handful of players that could actually win anymore. When you're hitting 6- and 7-irons on to greens originally designed for a SW, well, it's not much wonder there are so few birdies this year. I still like the course, and it's going to be a great weekend. I guess we'll just see.

Well, I don't think the course is that different. Yeah they've moved some tee boxes and lengthened some holes, but it's not like the course is altogether different. Anyways, I absolutely love the Masters. It's actually my favorite televised sporting event all year. I just hope they get good weather on Sunday!

Well, no, compared to last year, it's not much different, but compared to ten years ago, even, there have been some significant changes.

I agree, though, that it doesn't really matter. It's still a blast to watch.
