No Phil but there will be a wlu_lax6 at the Monday practice round. Tickets showed up last week (my 2020 lottery win got pushed back to this year). Once again if anyone needs overpriced stuff from the shop let me know.
Have fun man. I had a great time the one time I went to course during a major (and that was “just” Baltusrol).

The comments are something. Golf 'experts' bitching about how Tiger is being a drama queen and will take the spot of a more deserving player.
A. There is no more deserving player on earth than Tiger.
B. That's not how the Masters works.

Yeah they ain’t adding someone just cause he drops out. He only qualifies as past champion anyhoo I think.

Since when do former champs at Augusta need to apologize for playing?

You're going to have to hang that locker room celebration plastic all over your TV room before he tees off Thursday.
(And not because of champagne!)

Is the masters better for this? 100%.

Got great pictures of Tiger, Justin T, and Freddy Couples during their practice round (heard he was on the range and then guesses well he was going out on #1 instead of #10). Fresy Couples was playing with neon green balls (was thinking about flying ladies that I used to find on the course).
Ran into Condi Rice and the Chairman as I was walking to check out the par 3 course.
Skipping balls on 16 was fun and the 2 Amateurs who I saw on 16 both almost aced it.
Tony F and Rahm were fun. Harry Higgs was my favorite. Just haming it up with fans all day. He was with Dustin Johnson. The 3 Japanese players went out together.
1 pimento cheese sandwich.
Lots of white folks in ugly golf shirts.

Also course is hilly as hell.
All of the greens are brutal.
6 is this down hill par 3 where the ball just rolls back.

Golf Channel reported on Tiger’s change in footwear with mentioning “Nike” or “FootJoy” and at first I was suspicious they were protecting sponsors but maybe that’s just the way it should be reported and everyone else is doing it wrong.
I watched Chris Vernon grow from nothing in Memphis to brilliance. Colonel Reb is crying remains a classic too.

Do the greens look as yellow as the pictures. Its spring so maybe a lot of growth every day.

Yeah they were yellowish and the flowers looked past bloom.
The Creek was pretty dry.

The real question is will the food be prepared teppanyaki style in front of the former champions. AB?
Let me make a DM.
You know, tweeting a golf writer while Tiger is in the interview room was probably a poor choice of timing.

Funny enough, I am two degrees separated from fuzzy's phone number. But I won't call that card in just yet. I know a guy who plays with Fuzzy regularly but my friend has had some rough family issues in the past month. But He did call Fuzzy one time when we were playing and put him on facetime to critique another golfer's swing.
Fuzzy was not impressed, though his command of blue language is quite something.
