The Tigers are back, and so's Tiger Woods, he finished second, one shot from forcing a play off. The world is a much better place with the two Tigers back in town :clap
 
He can win at Augusta no doubt. It’s great to have him
Back. Watched him make the putt on 17 it was magnificent. He is the greatest pressure I’ve ever seen in any sport in my lifetime. Hope his back doesn’t give him any troubles the games so much more interesting when he’s around.

Lots of good stuff from Tiger , has to be the best putter of all time. Great to see Rory back in form

Yeh, it was great to watch. Rory just smashes it, and he putted the lights out. The Masters will be magical.

Tiger has got his length back, apparently recording some of the fastest swing speeds. And doesn’t look like any worries from the back.

Being in the thick of it on a Sunday a couple of times should help him immensely.

I'm so looking forward to the Masters, Tiger is actually hitting the ball further than he ever has, his scrambling and his short game is as good as it ever was.
 
Nothing the greatest does would surprise me , however just can’t see him winning at Augusta this year . Only the Shark compares when it comes to getting bums on seats . I’m that inspired I actually went for a game.

I wouldn’t mind having the opportunity to knock it in the water there
 
I’ve probably mentioned on here somewhere before, however the distance the ball can travel now is just crazy ad that with what these new drivers do and we are playing a different game.
 
Masters week , should be a beauty, not sure why but think Kuchar is a Smokey , best Aussie Lieshman and hopefully Tiger is up there come the final 9

Yes i can't wait, my smokey is Dechambeau. Would love to see Tiger win, i hope the coverage is better than it usually is.

While Woods is on the course, I will barely bother with the TV coverage. The CBS website runs two featured groups (morning and afternoon), Amen Corner and 15 and 16. Much better way to watch players other than Woods unless, of course, he is running hot.

DeChambeau is a good each-way bet at 120s. Noren also appeals, especially if you snapped up the 100s from a month or so ago. But hope Rose wins. Nice fella who deserves it given his record on the track.

Normally I hate any coverage that focuses on a couple of yanks (Mickleson gets a lot of airtime at the masters even when playing poorly) but I'm interested in watching how tiger goes so happy to see a lot of him. Just might turn the volume down on the commentators, although IBF is a fantastic commentator.

Fascinasting tournament with most top players in decent form.
 
Watching that 97 replay , I think they said Tiger hit one up 14 330 yards , 25 longer then anyone else, times have changed
 
Mark Leishman is in Tigers group, so unless they only show Tiger should get to see a bit of him.
Scott, Rory and Rahm are in the same group, Jason Day is with Bubba and Stenson, Cameron Smith is with Reavie and Horschel. So with groupings the Aussies have there's a good chance that we will get to see a bit of them.
 
I'm super excited and can't wait for the Masters to start, i can't remember so many great golfers all playing so well at the same time in the lead up to a major.
Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth, Dustin Johnson, Justin Thomas, Justin Rose, Tiger Woods, Bubba Watson, Jason Day, Phil Mickelson, Jon Rahm, are all in very good form, wow! what a line up.
This could turn out to be one for the ages, i sure do hope so.
 
Greatest sporting event in the world is the Masters (besides a Tigers GF of course)

Never fails to bring the drama. This years should be a beauty.
 
Watched the Par 3 comp this morning - Tom Watson wins with 6 under whilst Jack was 4 under and just missed gettable birdie putts on 8 & 9

And then Jack's grandson gets a hole in one on the 9th.

Oh, and Gary Player shot 2 under to round out the trio.
 
Wow, Sergio shot a 13 on the par 5 15th, last year on his final round when he won he shot a 3 on the same hole. What a difference a year makes.
