It is finally Masters week!!

Time for El Nino to win his first major??? Hope Sergio has another great round Friday. Have always been a fan of his iron play...

I hate Garcia, he's a punk. I hope he never wins a major.

Hates a strong word.I didn't like the young version of Garcia but as he has aged,I think he has changed.

Agree, he's a bitch.

Anywho, dammit, I should have picked Spieth. Lots of other big names had a terrible first round; see: Scott, Bubba, Fowler, DJ...

Sergio will choke as always.

One more round of windy conditions, tomorrow will be really interesting considering Sunday the conditions are supposed to be perfect.

Sick of looking at Spieth,I can see why he gets put on the clock a lot.I hope the old man wins it or anyone but last years winner

If you're sick of looking at Spieth you're going to really hate the next 20 years of golf.

Yep, Jordan isn't going away anytime soon.

Not exactly- he won't win everytime and he's not winning Sunday.Go BL!

What an awesome Saturday!! Ohh man Matsuyama would be right there if he didn't forget to bring his putter down the stretch. I have hated Langer for over 30 years now. Dude is a raccoon. Kaufman is gonna shoot 100 tomorrow. I'm hoping that DJ/Day pairing catches some fire and lights it up a little bit.

Spieth is just such a surgeon. I think he's going to come out on fire after what happened on 18. He showed poor Rory who was in charge yesterday. I'm just really glad that tomorrow is going to be more than a coronation round.

Did Masters Dot Org go away and be replaced with Masters Dot Com? I looked for it online and could not find an answer.

This 12th hole is nasty



Spieth within 2 strokes through 16. Has to birdie both holes to force the playoff

Congrats to Dan Willett!Jordan is done.

I wouldn't say he's done, but that's a big knock to his confidence. He's certainly not lighting up the courses like he was last year. We'll see what happens.

I meant done for the match but I will say 1 year does not make a career,I know the media wants another Arnold,Jack and Tiger.I have seen a bunch come and go that they try to hype before they get anywhere near legend level.With the money and media 24/7 I doubt there will be another golfer of those likes again.

Jordan is 22, he'll bounce back. Dustin Johnson continues to hang around, but can't make that final push. He has all the talent to be the next great player, but he always seems to miss critical shots.

Johnson can't putt, has always been his Achilles Heel.

Spieth will be fine, he's already at 22 one of the most composed mentally tough players on tour. I never like to see a player meltdown like that, unless it's Sergio.

You may be right. The media puts so much pressure on young sports stars these days, and the exposure gets to them, in my opinion. I feel like that's what happened to Rory, remains to be seen if he can get that swagger from 2 years ago back. Spieth may be suffering from the same condition.

Rory is a great example.If Jordan is so mentally tough as Largent puts it how do you blow the Masters like he did?The kid is a great putter but he is very jumpy before he shoots like he's fighting mental demons.I question as he gets older and his ego gets bigger where his caddie and swing coach cannot get through to him anymore what will he be then?There is the burnout factor ect.He is an older 22 year old and I wonder if his body is the same(older beyond years)this would bring on injuries which we have seen happen that a golfer isn't the same anymore.A lot of this is just speculation by me but these things have happened to many rising young golfers that you never hear about anymore.The mental factor is so fragile in this sport.

Spieth was most definitely feeling the pressure over the weekend, doing things he never does like back off of shots and putts taking more time. He was even put on the clock Saturday for taking too long.

Even the most mentally tough golfers of all time like Nicklaus and Woods had meltdowns, hell Nicklaus won 19 majors, but came in 2nd 17 times. 17 times!

So yeah, I have no doubt Spieth, even at age 22 will bounce back. He's mature well beyond his years. His demeanor AFTER the quad bogey and after told me everything I needed to know. Calm, polite, cool and collected.............none of the mentally weak red flags you see with athletes who crap the bed.

I doubt his ego will ever be a problem.

Why's that?

He is from Texas.
