    The Masters

    Anyone else watching the Masters?
    Not a huge fan of golf myself, but i enjoy watching the 4 majors, but other than that i cant be arsed..
    Still all the same it's can be compelling viewing..
    Maybe just a little more when a fellow Country man is in well in contention on the 2nd day

      The Masters is one of the best sporting event expect for CBS coverage. I wish they could cover it like how the Euro tour is covered. Today they only really showed the last two groups even when tiger was taking a dump they kept showing him. Did anyone see Phil or Fred Couples? But besides all that I think Rory will win the kid has a great swing and has what it takes to handle the greens.

        Watched last nigh for 20 minutes. Can't understand that sport. Personally don't like it but respect for all the people watching it. There must be something about golf when so much people love it. For me it is to much static. I like to watch landscapes, amazing

          I was like you before I started playing, now I find it the greatest sport I've ever played, I played Snooker at a fairly high level, boxed for my country and played football(was crap at footy) but golf tops the lot of them, and its a great way to exercise, and see some stunning scenery.

              That was difficult to watch, he looked a forlorn figure and really needed his caddy to help out.

                Shame about the youngster but he will learn and come back fighting.....he just lost the plot and if it had not been for the amount of money involved he would have walked off....hes a great ball striker and normally a very good putter xo watch out for him winning sometime this year....all the best to Schwartzel, a worthy winner for S.A. and it looks like all the young guns are winning everything just now....by the way I watched the beeps coverage

                  That's the thing about individual sports.. No hiding place.. If a footballer has an off day he can be carried by his teammates.. Not a golfer.. Must have been lonely out there for him.. He'd played out of his skin then next day couldn't buy a drive, chip or put.. He's still a class act..

                      Rory should of complained about how slow Schwartzel was playing. As a Golfer their is nothing more annoying than the group in front of you playing slow making you wait every shot. Rory and Angel are fast playing players and once you are out of rhythm it's hard to get it back. I'm not saying Rory would of won but it sure don't help when your struggling with your swing. Their is no excuse for slow play

                          Hope that's the case, but we wont know until he's in the shake up again for another major.
