Decent comeback by the Cat. Be nice if he could get it back to even here on the 18th (I'm a few minutes behind, paused the live feed)

Must've been amazing. They're gushing about the condition Augusta National is in right now. Saying they've never seen it so perfect - and that's a pretty high bar.

The course is in amazing shape, but a bunch of people were butthurt that the azaleas bloomed too early, so there aren’t as many flowers this year lol.

I hope when I’m that old, my life has gone down a path where I’m bitching about azalea blooms in Augusta becasue that’s all I have to be upset about haha

Was it fun to eat all the cheap good food?

How much were the tickets?

The course looks AMAZING!

Dude, it was all amazing. The pimento cheese is actually legit. I had like 5 over two days lol. Beers for $5. Chicken biscuit for $2. Didn’t exactly make up for the price of the ticket - one day was a little north of $1000. Yikes. I think we waited too long to buy them.

To that end, my dad, brother in law and I had a fantastic time. It was totally worth it but it’s so ****ing expensive I probably wont do it again until my kids have graduated college.

I even bought a gnome haha.

Final edit: one pass for one day was $1000+ on Ticketmaster

I'm hoping that someday I might actually get something other than the standard rejection letter for their ticket lottery.

Same. I even changed my title to Dr. with the hopes it might help

To be clear: I went to the practice rounds. I wasn’t there today.

Honestly, I think I'd prefer that. You have more freedom of movement and better access.

Watching on TV, the difference is huge.

These are just rough estimates, many coming after a dozen beers.

There were estimated 5 rows on a tee box when tiger or Rahm or JT or Spieth tees off.

Watching it live there are like 50 rows.

When I attended in 2012, Augusta National permitted cameras on practice round days, no cameras for the actual tournament.

That's a huge benefit to bring a camera there.

schwartzel and dechambeau (sp) may not make the cut and it is 10 am on day 2

Couldn't believe how affordable the menu looks

Also, I wonder how the PGA folks will feel if Keopka from the LIV tour wins the Masters ROFL
