2025 Masters Thread - Was: Collin Morikawa will TIE FOR 14th at The Masters (1 Viewer)

Rory has to dump his Buddy Caddy. I could name a hundred mistakes that Rory has made that is part of a Caddies job to prevent. Like blowing a downhill putt 6 feet by. He has to make a change if he wants to really be great.

Did I blink or did I miss Rory's double bogey?

And what about that double in the water the other day? Don't know the whole story but heard Rory forgot he could have dropped and played the same shot or something? I caught the tail end of it, but the first thing I thought of was wait, how the hell didn't his caddy go over all options with him?

don’t worry, plenty more left.

 

[dickey moe]

Pretty disastrous start for Rory.

 

[falguy]

Bryson's putt on 2 looked like it would stop about 40ft from the hole but proceeds to trickle another 30, or so, and he makes the birdie.

Then 3 putts on the next hole

Scheffler is going to win this.

Scheffler is going to win this.

Idk has the feel of someone coming out of nowhere willet style

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Three 2 shot swings in the first 4 holes

These guys really are insufferable at times.

And by Scheffler, I mean Åberg.

Forget who, the Twins broadcasters maybe, but they announced part of an inning yesterday as if they were golf announcers. It was pretty funny. The young pitcher on the mound had a Dad that played in the Masters and that's how it came about (he did the par 3 thing w/ his Dad in late 90s).

They went on to say baseball is as slow as golf so we're going to try and announce it like they do.

It sure looked like it lol

 

[FreeBaGeL]

These two just putzing around even and letting other guys back in this.

Aberg had two long birdie putts that missed by a centimeter or he could really be in the middle of it. He's hitting it really well today.

 

[Cowboysfan8]

A bit of a yawner so far

Nance: "This tournament is just begging for a Rory Hole!"

 

[Zeppelin]

Sometimes it's your day and you get a massive break.

 

[culdeus]

Getting to be a runaway here. It's been a bit since we've had a spieth esqe late meltdown.

 

[Zow]

A bit of a yawner so far

The beginning was wild with all those swings. It’s chilled but hopefully this is the quiet before the storm.

Rose could be at -12 right now.

Well that was a pretty lousy chip..

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Bryson spending a lot of $$

Rose could be at -12 right now.

Aberg too if he could make a putt

 

[FreeBaGeL]

This is the kind of collapse we all expected from Rory, not Bryson. Wheels have completely fallen off.

 

[culdeus]

Eek

 

[culdeus]

How do you not have a camera to show this hitting the water

And another long birdie attempt for him goes half way down and lips out. I think that's 3 times it's lipped out for him.

 

[AAABatteries]

Rory, wait

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Holy crap

 

[belljr]

That was spectacularly bad

That was 20 yards offline

Rose putting for birdie and rory needs to get up and down for bogey. Could be tied here in 2 mins

 

[Zeppelin]

That's one of the worst shots I've ever seen.

Anyone got a ip address for his Alexa or something?

Rory imploding in epic fashion. Had him at +864 to win. Thanks for nothing.

 

[Andy Dufresne]

My buddy explained what happened there (his daughter is about to become a D1 golfer and has seen a lot):

Straight chunk. Wow. Your lead edge digs as you slow down vs keeping tempo. Opens face and miss on yards and right. Shocker

You end up decelerating in the swing cause it’s an uncomfortable short. That’s why they say it’s better to take less club and push vs slowing down. Well there’s not a less club there so your brain slows you down and you bottom a tad lower. Seen it a million times on the amateur ranks.

Not sure why a half sand wedge to the center of that green needs to stop. It does run uphill in the middle.

13 would be my "birdie a hole at Augusta or die" hole.
