    Dang, my top six didn’t have him.

    1. Dustin Johnson.
    2. Justin Thomas.
    3. Jordan Speith.
    4. Rory McIlroy
    5. Lee Westwood
    6. Sergio Garcia

    I love the Masters. Been there 3 times for practice rounds. Took my wife last time for her birthday. Then flew to Scottsdale for 4 days of golf and then watching the taped Masters at night with another of our favorite couples who love golf.
    Great tournament.

    Sunday has high winds forecast. It will put the maximum pressure on these players to close. Should be great viewing.
    Enjoy!

    I'm picking Justin Thomas to win, my wild card pick is Xander Schauffele.

    I am huge Spieth fan so would love to see that, but dang near impossible to win the Masters after winning the week before. I would like to see JT win it too.

    Also looking forward to see what Bryson does and if he actually uses the lines off the tee he was using in the practice rounds.

    Well, that is why I don’t go to Vegas.
    At least Jordan is 1 under and Thomas 1 over.
    Rose looked mystified at his own play. He was good. We will see what today brings.

    Tough course yesterday. The greens were browns! I can’t remember seeing them that way before. Maybe they forgot to pay their water bill.

    No reason why Speith won't take this one. These guys get on hot streaks and then cool down for a while.

    Guess I need need to adjust my tv colors!
    2 of my 6 made the cut. Not a very good percentage.
    But they both look to be able to take this.
    Anyone who wins this will be most deserving. It is a an extreme challenge this weekend.

    Matsuyama should be speaking English by now. He knows it but will not speak it. Jerk.

    I feel sorry for Sheffele. He had the pressure on him after 15 and let him off the hook. Totally different ball game if he hits the middle of the green with a fade. He will need to work on that shot he said as a draw is his norm. Only cost him about $500,000 if not the win.

    Matsuyama did what the rest of the field could not. Nothing stellar other that some great drives and good irons and occasionally getting out of some trouble.

    Zaldoris should be a winner and soon. He is some kind of golfer.

    Enjoyed the Masters show. Was rooting for Xander, amazing he was on a 4 birdie in a row streak, then a triple. I can relate, when your going great, for me pars, then holy crap, the train comes off the tracks. WTF Where did that come from, I ask myself. Golfed today, haven't played in a month, medical finger thing, 6 pars and 3 double bogeys on the first 9. Ok, not real bad for me. Then the back 9, 8 bogeys and 1 par, ugh.
