The 2021 Masters Discussion Thread

[PaintCrew]

Too many bets to type out but that's my H2H action.

Long story short I'm heavy on Beekcake with my outrights. I think the narrative of no greens book is kind of a silly one and while I could be wrong I think one absolutely wild lost ball of a 370 yd drive 40 yards short of #3 derailed the entire event for him. Is it his fault that he wasn't emotionally stable to over come it? ...why yes it is but it happened.

IMO that type of silliness isn't going to happen in the hard/dry/firm conditions we are about to see and conditions I think only will benefit his bomber style and he's proven to be elite on quick/firm conditions around the greens (not like it was in November). He's only going to have even more of an edge with angles and run outs. The issue in november other than the nonsensical lost ball that was completely in play was his iron play which is in an entirely different place than in November. That's what helped him win at winged foot (along with accurate driving) and if he does that here...quite frankly he wins.

God speed and good luck

i really like the card from Kokrak down. (hope I did not jinx it)

 

[Rockfish]

Wheeled Spieth in an exacta box with JT, DJ, Rahm, and Cantlay

 

[mrpickem]

I'm high on Speith, Rahm, C,Smith, W,Simpson, Sergio and Im

Sungjae Im top 10 +360 - Im tends to be hit or miss but there's no denying his pure talent and when he's hot he's hard to beat. He finished 2nd in his only Masters appearance and he comes out firing in the early rounds so expect him to be around the top of the leaderboard. The key for him is his approach game, if he starts throwing darts watch out.

Bad?

That vs Spieth money looking good already?

LEEEEETS GOOOOOO!

Rory has never shot Even or better in Rd 1 at Augusta.
I tried to look for his over under score today but missed it

 

[KJ]

Man these greens look like old Augusta, love it

They are on the borderline right now. Hope they don’t lose it.

Seems like last several years that two putts were fairly automatic, not so much today. Finally. Augusta greens are back!

 

[B.A.R.]

They won't lose it, not there...

Bahahahaha

 

[DaddyMcIlhon]

These greens are out of control imo. Guys are hitting good putts that are rolling out 10 feet sometimes. They look crusty and bumpy as all get out on tv. I know people like to see it hard but this is borderline unfair.

Cry baby Sergio called it gimmicky last year. Yesterday I listened to Masters rep discussing evening the playing field, not making it a 8000 yd course in the future, to offset current driver/distances today’s players are hitting.

I agree, borderline unfair. Good shots turn poor, only great shots are rewarded.

If you recorded it, they will replay Fleetwood's 1 on 16. They have a camera angle which shows a girl in shorts watching the shot about 15 yards ahead of the tee next to the ropes. She has an "Ace" ass

 

[KJ]

Spieth goes into the water if he doesn't jar that

 

[ProV1Colt]

If you reversed Bryson's score he would still be 2 shots behind JR

According to his own words, he's +9 right now

 

[twinkie13]

I hate to even ask this....can he go bell to bell “playing it safe”?

Thought that sand trap funny business only went on at bandon

 

[KJ]

Pretty poorly raked bunker from what I'm seeing. What a joke.

 

[bones]

no...but if he shoots 3-4 under from here, that may well do it

 

[Rockfish]

Took Webb 18/1 and each way (top 5).

Also, leader at the end of round two:
Webb 14/1
Spieth 16/1
Zalatoris 25/1

@guaranteeed Bryson’s caddie? Where he get him from?

@guaranteeed Bryson’s caddie? Where he get him from?

maybe he needs to trade him out for another stud from there

 

[laopadak]

Hit a nice 3 team parlay, 3-ball edition yesterday with Kisner, Deki & Rose. 20-1 payout.

Giving it another go today, 3 ball.

Kokrak over Perez and Leishman
Reed over Berger and Casey
Connors over Schwartzel and Kim
Thomas over Oosthuizen and Finau

 

[twinkie13]

First tee shot he put it in the woods?

 

[B.A.R.]

Rose with morning draw today....ideal... if he can fire a 68-69 today he's in GREAT shape.

Bernd on fire early.

Tough two putt for bogey

 

[KJ]

Think they said only 2 of the last 12 or 13 winners went afternoon/morning starts, obviously depends on weather

 

[emg2525]

Bernd on fire early.

I think he’s fade material today, but I’m not dabbling. Well documented injury issues and a fluky round (or 9 I should say) yesterday in my opinion.

 

[Ryno14]

Spieth and Conners 3 balls for me

Wiesberger on fire
