Masters Showdown

I ain't much for golf, but after watching the last few holes today, I'm psyched for tomorrow's 4th round, especially looking forward to McIlroy and DeChambeau duke it out for the title. That slam dunk DeChambeau putted on 18 today was awesome. Enjoy the final, golf nuts! B)

Farewell Ryno.

    Epic showdown with some very strong challengers that will be too far back if they both break par.

    I'd like to see Conners come from behind and see if there could be a 3-way playoff for some extra excitement, as I have him in a few golf pools. Even though I also have Patrick Reed in a pool, he's probably the only guy that I wouldn't be overly enthused to win today.

    The best golf swing I've ever seen is Ludvig Aberg. As it relates to sports cards, his SI for Kids rookie was placed on the bottom left corner of the sheet and is extremely difficult to find centered. That card on eBay is actively selling raw & I've only seen a PSA 7 grade - the centering is brutal on vast majority.

    Enjoy your collection!

    Wow! Rory is on a monumental collapse - now down by 1

    Glad to see Rory come back and win!

    Congratulations on the win galaxy. Was touch and go for awhile. A real test of emotions.
    Meanwhile my top 20 backup bets totaled 5 hits. Have to see if any splits. As it stands now I have a minimal profit of $2-3. So my total play of $50 is covered before any splits. But for 4 days of entertainment that's a small price to pay if I only lose a few $. Looking forward to the next 3 Majors and the Kentucky Derby.

    most epic Masters I've ever watched

    i think I died and came back to life 10 times during the telecast......and it had nothing to with any of my wagers

    Rory's face should be plastered next to 'resilience' in the dictionary

    you'll never be able to outrun a bad diet

    That was epic, indeed. When my very own wife excused herself from dinner prep and left it for me to do. No biggie, frozen pizza in the oven and green salad. I'm good at that. But she wanted to watch it all, complete with green jacket presentation, and wouldn't leave her recliner until then. Now that's a sports wife! ;)

    Farewell Ryno.

    there's a fella on a Facebook golf memorabilia collector page who has been working on this endeavor since 1993. Tiger is always a chore, but he'll get Rory easily.

    That is impressive, very historical, Tiger would probably take pride in signing that if the guy can get it in front of Tiger. 👍
