A tough day... As The Master's bit back on Saturday. A five-shot lead is now down t o three. There was not one player who did not struggle at some point during yesterday's round. The patrons bundled up with beanie's, jackets and blankets was not a normal sight! Even with Scottie Scheffler's adventures on the back nine. He held it together enough with scrappy play and help from his competitors. Winning three tournaments this year doesn't change the facts for Scottie. Nerves are certainly starting t o creep in. His very experienced caddie could prove instrumental today. Because the hardest part for Scottie will be his waiting all morning until his afternoon tee time! The cold weather and physicality of the golf course particularly reared it's ugly head for Tiger yesterday. Like the competitor he is giving up was never a option. As pac watched him she just wanted his round over. So he could get his treatment. Even with all of that... As Tiger limped towards speaking with the media he was asked. "What are you showing America this week." His simple answer was "Never give up!" Tiger plays with J. Rahm today. And pac suspects he will play hard as Rahm was telling stories t o the media earlier in the week! The surging Ausie Cam Smith is going t o give Scottie everything he can handle in the final pairing and round today. For those who saw him win The Players last month. His fearlessness and clutch putting was a sight t o see. He has that rocker, wild man look about him. Yet damn... can he play some golf! pac suspects many Australians are going t o record his round! There are a few stragglers who could come close and threaten the leaders. Especially with the near perfect weather expected today. But the stats and numbers show the majority of Master's winners are in the top five places starting Sundays round. Time will tell if history repeats itself...  ~ Physical strength is measured by what we carry. Inner strength is measured by what we can bear. ~ |

Rare to see that kind of weather for the Masters. Growing up, the Masters was always a sure sign for me that spring was indeed on the way and any snow left on the ground on my New England golf courses would soon melt away, and I'd be playing again.

Tiger's putting is usually pretty good to say the least, I wonder if not being able to squat very good might be part of those issues. It's great to see him out there, and I doubt that anyone thinks he shouldn't be, is first tournament in so long. I think Scottie will hold on.

Augusta has undulating & very small greens to hit coupled w typhoon winds very difficult to play you gotta keep your ball low & let it roll or the wind will knock it down or use longer club to account for wind on the greens wind plays a factor too gotta putt harder on uphills barely tap it down as well ball always breaks towards the water! should be a good day on the course l suspect TX boy Scheffler will hold on & win! BTW...I grew up on RTJ designed course you need creativity around the greens l like using 3 wood depending on my lye when l can off the green like a putter or 6 iron!

pac Thanks again for the update! I hope Tiger had a good final round? A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. George Bernard Shaw Jenny
