I hope my math is correct, if not drop Hoffman.

Your math is correct but I would suggest not picking Charley Hoffman as he is not in the Masters field this week.

Hoffman is not in the field - want to swap him out with another 2 pointer?

Tiebreaker -11

[cato]

Team Catonious Rex:

DJ: 11 (!)
JT: 9
Koepka: 5
Rory: 5

I’ve watched very little golf since this pandemic hit, so don’t know how everyone is playing right now. So I picked two guys I root for (JT and Rory) and two guys I like to see go head to head (DJ and Koepka). Also going all in on a top heavy draft.

Also, also I’m still vibing off DJs march across Augusta last fall.

I forgot a tie breaker. I’ll go with -12.

[rasputin]

I have attempted to list below 2 different lists of how many people picked which golfer, the column on the left sorted alphabetically, the right column sorted by frequency. Spieth was, indeed, the most popular choice (and a cheap one). It is quite possible that I have erred somewhere, with people changing picks and such, but I was curious as to who was picked the most versus the guys I picked, so there it is subject to inevitable mistakes (or changes made after I post this).

Warm, dry, possible some wind gusts predicted today. I would rather be in a morning group than one starting in the afternoon today.

The course will be as dry and fast as the competition committee wants it to be today. May have rain overnight to soften things up though.

[elvis14]

Didn't realize the deadline was midnight so I'm late, ignore this if you want. I don't even know what time the players start teeing off:

Bryson - 7
Collin - 7
Berger - 4
Westwood - 4
Wolff - 3
Oosthuizen - 3
Jordan - 2

Final score -14, of course

There's always one!

Looks like that Sandy Lyle sleeper pick isn't gonna pay off... (+6 thru 6).

Don't you know that the Masters is won on the back nine on Sunday?

Sandy Lyle wins when he can bend over and tee it up.

[dudog84]

Just sayin'...if Bezuidenhout holds on, I expect some respect around here!

[rsvman]

Love it! Ain't gonna happen, but I love it anyway.

Did someone just sneeze?

[sagegrouse]

Hily, moly -- is the course playing hard or my team just going down the tubes? My guys Rory and Sergio are +3 and still on the front nine.

[OldPhiKap]

Wind is gusting and swirling. Really seems to have picked up in the last 20 or so minutes.

[SouthernDukie]

Just heard that Bryson is going to try and carry the 1st over the trees well past the fairway bunkers. Perhaps my memory of that hole is playing tricks on me, but is that even possible? Or perhaps I misheard what his strategy is on that first hole. But no matter what happens, I hope he really does go for some crazy shots. It’ll just be so much fun to watch someone try something really different at the Masters.

[CameronDuke]

Took the week off for my wife’s spring break (she’s a teacher).

She let me get my chores and yard work done this morning. Sipping Miller lites and eating wings with my childhood best friend at his house.

Is there anything better than watching The Masters with your friends and family?

[dudog84]

Ok, let's stop it right now! My man Zalatoris the leader in the clubhouse at -2, and I have 3 of the 4 guys doing better.

Only one way to go from here.
