The Masters 2025

[NEhomer]

They've had significant rain there lately so it's playing very soft. Augusta is pretty toothless for these guys when the greens are forgiving, so they're speculating about a possible record today. I hate waiting until 3 though... wish Augusta would allow for much more TV coverage.

The "hallowed grounds" are much more impressive in person. Every foot of that course is unbelievably well manicured.

Make sure to grab a pimento cheese sammich. Have fun.

Amateur mistake: U.S. Amateur champion Jose Luis Ballester made waves when he couldn’t find a restroom and wound up taking a different kind of relief in Rae’s Creek, thinking he was out of sight of patrons. He wasn’t, and the patrons at the par-5 13th hole clapped for him afterward.

Nick Dunlap had the worst score at the 2025 Masters. Then he won over Augusta.

Nick Dunlap went from cautionary tale to golf inspiration at the 2025 Masters

I'm surprised more hasn't been made of Ballester pissing in Rae's Creek .. I've done my share of pissing in the woods but that's pretty shocking tbh.

I was really rooting for Langer to make the cut. He would have if not for his double at 15. 15 is usually a birdie hole, but it's been getting more of them this year than usual due to getting too close with their layups and spinning their pitch off the front.

I suppose I'd like to see Rory get his slam.

Wow what a start in round 3 for Rory. Blasted off the 2nd tee for 370 yards, overshoots green then chips it in for Eagle for -3 to start.

Boys shooting lights out so far.

Looking like a great weekend of watching golf. Leaderboard is impressive, and several top players climbing up.

I had the privilege of attending a Masters in 92. Beautiful and memorable place.

Should be a decent showdown tomorrow between Rory and Bryson. Hopefully they don't run away with it and it just comes down to two.

What a performance by Bryson and honestly Rory as well but Rory certainly left shots out there.

IF it was Rory and Conners in the last group I think Rory would win.

Now that it is him and Bryson I just have a hard time seeing Rory pulling it off. I do want him to just so he can finish the Career Grand Slam

before the lotteries for practice round tickets were instituted in 1995 we'd just grab a couple of burgers and a six pack, drive down to Augusta from Atlanta (usually Wednesday), park free in the main lot, pay $5 admission and hang out with the world's greatest golfers at one of the world's greatest golf courses... was heaven - pimento cheese sammich $1.50; beer $1.50... was also our (and everybody else's) fault for them having to implement the damn lotteries - everybody'd brag up how wonderful the whole experience was to anybody who'd listen... people listened... mucked it all up.

had two full ride passes, compliments of Anheuser-Busch to the 1982 (Stadler) and 1983 (Seve) Masters.
