My very specific prediction: Charley Hoffman to lead after one round, Rory to lead the rest of the way and hold off a late charge from Langer and Adam Scott to win it

Didn’t this happen the year Adam Scott actually won?

Oh. I thought you meant the same basics aside from the final outcome. I was being a dick.

No no, that year it was Mark Leishman's turn to lead after 18.

17. Watson
20. Schaufele
53. Bjerregaard
56. Wallace

If 2 miss the cut you're eliminated, then its total of your top 3.

My pool we have 11 people, two rounds snake draft, no too 10 golfers allowed. Top finisher from pool wins pot that week. We do 11 tourneys.

I’ve got Day and Cameron Smith this week.

I blame bronto for Yahoo killing their fantasy golf....However, I do play the game on PGAtour.com where you pick a golfer for each tournament but burn them for the year. They have another one too. I would be in for some competition.

I'm watching on the Golf Channel and they don't actually show any shots, they just show images of the hole and use graphics to show where the player hit the ball. Dafuq is that?

I believe it is that the Masters people still won't allow live coverage of the front 9 on Thursday and Friday. Used to be all days, I think, but they pared it back.

Only live coverage they can show on Thursday and Friday (on TV) is ESPN coverage from 3 to 7 Eastern.

Fire up the computer. It's awesome. Featured groups, amen corner, 15/16. And the "Track" feature will show you any shot you want. The masters is so far ahead of the networks when it comes to showing the golf at this point.

Think IBM's work here is any way linked to Ginni Rometty's membership at Augusta?

and not the pga. This came from the USGA and Royal whatever whatever. The pin staying in and a few other rules were tweaked (the other big one is the drop from the knee instead of shoulder)
