eball Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Lefty just began his round with an eagle at #2 and birdie at #4... Looks like DJ will play despite falling down the stairs yesterday and injuring his back...luckily he has the last tee time this afternoon. Great tribute to Arnie this morning.

Augie Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Storm here knocked out my cable, phone and internet last night. AT&T has graciously agreed to try to come out Saturday between 1-4:00pm for a 2-4 hour service call. Looks like this thread may be my "Masters connection". Actually, I have DirecTV too for Bills games and backup, but only on one TV and that's on a circuit breaker that also got fried last night, so I don't know if it works until I get the breaker replaced. Oh, and a smoke detector chirped from 2:00am until I went out for a replacement 9 volt backup battery about 5:30am. Not a good start to Masters week four me..... ...and now I'll take a brief nap.....

I hope that storm wasn't widespread or the officiating pool for the Masters will be dangerously small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Went to the practice round on Tuesday. Incredible place! If you ever have a chance to go - DO NOT turn it down!! NO KIDDING! The thing that surprised me the most was the elevation changes in the terrain which I never fully appreciated on TV. After almost 4 hours of kindness, a tennis buddy/electrician friend has me back with power....and cable for the Masters! Yay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I hope your din't get them all DQ'd!!! I'm hoping to watch some golf this weekend! Ha! ;-) Just don't indulge on Sunday or all the King's men will come for you! I still don't think anybody is really emailing. I betcha they knew right away what Lexi did... It's a game of Kings, don't cause a scene, investigate, take their time... https://www.highlandtitles.com/2014/09/golf-the-game-of-kings/ "...One of the earliest references to golf we can find is an act of parliament by the Scottish king, James II in 1457 curbing the popularity of the game. He wanted all citizens to practise their archery instead. If you were caught indulging in golf or football on a Sunday you could find yourself arrested by the kings soldiers. James IV, king of Scotland had a different view. Although he still discouraged golf as a public pastime, he sneakily bought himself set of golf clubs from a bow maker in Perth, in 1502. This was the last British monarch to have been killed in battle, defeated by Henry VIIIs army at the Battle of Flodden Field. No doubt James IV was not focused on the battle at all, but practising his golf swing using a halberd. No wonder he lost. (That probably didnt happen..."

KD in CA Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Welcome back to the crowd Charlie. This is why guys 10 back are still in the mix before the weekend. Phil, Rory, Spieth, Kuch, etc are right there. And I love Freddie Couples 3 back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 And I love Freddie Couples 3 back! I caught a little bit of Fred after work today and was loving it. But I was also sitting there wondering what it must be like caddy for a guy like that. What the hell can any caddy possibly tell Fred Couples about Augusta that he didn't already know 10 years ago?! You'd probably just end up walking around all day saying "Nice shot, sir" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
