Why is it that everyone you like, i dislike? :lol:

nice to see the usual contenders making an early run...

Why is it that everyone you like, i dislike? :lol:
:lol:

These greens are ridiculous, I like that it's a good challenge but good shots aren't getting rewarded.

Cabrera +5 :sobbing:

Funk +10 :help: :rolls:

Seve finished 14 over :sad:

I hate seeing legends play on and embarrass themselves :(

Cabrera :haha:

Started the round to be the Masters champion but finished in honour to Van de Velde. How can you hit so awful shots aat 11 and 12.
Hopefully tomorrow Angel will shot an under 70 round.

Seve finished 14 over :sad:

I hate seeing legends play on and embarrass themselves :(

Gary Player shot 39 on front nine:worship:
But then an awful 44 :haha:

Has someone watched how haard is playing 15th hole today. Flag is too hard to be a first round.

Seve finished 14 over :sad:

I hate seeing legends play on and embarrass themselves :(

awww I know! For a moment I thought Arnold Palmer had entered :lol:

By the way is anyone joining me on the Justin Rose bandwagon? :p :banana:

By the way is anyone joining me on the Justin Rose bandwagon? :p :banana:

:o :eek: Justin Rose will shot a 76 or higher tomorrow. Had a lot of luck today, lots of holes made up and down.

I was sort of a fan of him when he turned professional, but after a few years i think i was put off by his lack of success :lol:
I think i can start jumping on the bandwagon again :rolls: :banana:

:o :eek: Justin Rose will shot a 76 or higher tomorrow. Had a lot of luck today, lots of holes made up and down.

Yeah sadly that's Justin all over - always teases us in the first and second rounds - usually the early pace setter and then boom he falls when he partners a quality player like Woods or Mickelson :sad:

:haha:

:lol: He will easily get Sports Personality of the Year if he wins it :p

:haha: What the hell is Jamie Redknapp doing there!

omg who is this Stadler guy?

By the way is anyone joining me on the Justin Rose bandwagon? :p :banana:
He'll bottle it as per usual ;)

No way will a Brit win it unfortunately, and I doubt it'll be a European either. Stenson is the best hope.

Stadler such a legend, incredible he is such good form at his age.

I actually saw his son Kevin, two years ago winning at AARgentina.

He'll bottle it as per usual ;)

No way will a Brit win it unfortunately, and I doubt it'll be a European either. Stenson is the best hope.

right, it will be an American for sure. Last European to win a major at 1999 (Loren ROberts) :haha:

omg who is this Stadler guy?

who? The walrus? :rocker2:
I forgot to put him in my favorites list a while ago :lol:

His son kevin won some tournament here in Argentina :)

Argentino? :haha: Do you play golf?

Tiger has made some crucial clutch putts today, not a great round so far but he's battled well and is very nicely placed :smoke:

Argentino? :haha: Do you play golf?

It's been a while since i last played :rolls: a few years ago was the last time actually :lol:.

He'll bottle it as per usual ;)

No way will a Brit win it unfortunately, and I doubt it'll be a European either. Stenson is the best hope.

If there's going to be a Brit I reckon Justin could be the one but I can't seriously see anyone stopping Woods. Luke Donald has started too shit as wel. Maybe David Howell still has a chance though?

awww talking of Argentina I was speaking to a guy in the gym in BsAs a few weeks ago and he was talking up Cabrera's chances! :eek:

Yesssss :p Who was that legend that just went in the water? I missed it through typing :lol:

I think only LoveIII, Toms and Tiger have a chance of winning the Masters.

I think only LoveIII, Toms and Tiger have a chance of winning the Masters.

Yeah I wouldn't discount them although I think Toms has a better chance than LoveIII. Tiger has to be massive fav so far.

I wonder if Fed will turn up around Woods for a bit of PR? :lol:

I think Cabrera is the most unstable player in the tour, he has chances at any tournament any day.

Yep I agree Cabrera is very dangerous although his mind has gone walkabout here as he finished at +5 so I doubt he can come back from there. :sad:

These argie headcases :rolleyes: :p :lol:

Tiger gets to under par :cool:

Hell come back :D

Legends in the field that should retire to the Seniors....

Sandy Lyle
Gary Player

Taking of Argentina, On the weekend I'll be getting my tickets to see them play rugby against Wales in the summer :D Vamos Los Pumas! hehe anyway... back to the golf :p

Larry Mize
Ray Floyd
Mark O'Meara

:lol:

:haha: I reckon they should do away with the half way cut! It would be a great laugh!

Seve 89+

:lol:

Langer is in hot form, he should not go to the Champions tour yet.

Langer is in hot form, he should not go to the Champions tour yet.

I guess he does still do a good job in the Ryder Cup as well.

Of course. He also won the World Champiosnhip partnering Siem :rolleyes:

Of course. He also won the World Champiosnhip partnering Siem :rolleyes:

Yeah that's true - that was a pretty good win especially as Monty isn't off form either.

How the hell did Stadler finish about 7 shots ahead of Westwood? :eek:

Of course. He also won the World Champiosnhip partnering Siem :rolleyes:

Siem is cool and his nerves were strong enough in that situation. :worship:

:haha: :haha: Some Japanese spectator turned up yesterday with a ticket saying "Practice Round" - and he turned up fully kitted with his clubs thinking he could have a game! lmao :haha;

Tiger finished bogey-bogey... :eek:

Tiger :haha:

He's still the favorite to win this, but i hope he goes down big time :) :lol:

Is it bad that one of the main reasons I watch the Masters is because the course is so pretty? :hearts: :sobbing:
:haha: :haha: Some Japanese spectator turned up yesterday with a ticket saying "Practice Round" - and he turned up fully kitted with his clubs thinking he could have a game! lmao :haha;

????????????????Paul Lowrie?

????????????????Paul Lowrie?

Paul Lawrie at Carnoustie in 1999 yep :)

Pretty awful results from a European perspective :sad:

Pretty awful day for the aussies, hopefully someone like ogilvy and scott shoots low tomorrow.

Tiger is having a nightmare :(

+5 for the tournament :sad:

Tiger is having a nightmare :(

I agree! Vijay Singh has to be the favourite now.

Adam :o

2 late birdies from Tiger keep him in the hunt.

It's anyone's tourney now, totally open :)

Vijay :bowdown:

Vijay :bowdown:
:boxing:

If Vijay wins it I'll cry.

Tiger or Vijah for the title I reckon! I'd go with Tiger just about.

Go Tiger. :rocker2:

Ogilvy and Appleby both shooting 70's :) Go Geoff and Stuart!

It's Paddy's, for sure.

appleby leading by one heading into the final round. :)

Today was such a weird day! :sobbing: I really don't know what happened! So many people are over par, and it's really close. Tomorrow should be interesting! :bounce:

Didn't see too much of it yesterday, unbelievable scoring though :lol:

Appleby will bottle it being in the final group with Tiger. I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that Tiger will win it by any stretch of the imagination. Even someone like Mickleson, if he shoots a 70 to get to +4 it could be good enough.

Looks set to be an amazing final day :rocker2:

Hopefully Appelby doesn't win, guy is a prick

this woods is good

Hopefully Appelby doesn't win, guy is a prick
:spit:

He's about as exciting a personality as Federer :o

this woods is good

No shit sherlock ;)

:spit:

He's about as exciting a personality as Federer :o

I was watching his presser and the journalists basically took the focus away from the fact that he was leading. Instead they continued to drill him about how it feels playing with Woods in the final round, whether he is going to feel any pressure etc Appelby was clearly pissed off at them but had to keep answering the questions :lol:

:lol:

He should choke :rocker2:

Basically, Paddy just has to hold his ground and watch the others drift past him - backwards.
Just stay out of the water.

I think we could be set for another mad day :o

Tiger bogeys the first, Appleby double bogeys, Mickleson triple bogeys :lol:

Tiger :smash: his irons which are usually so solid have been horrible so far :(

The Springboks are on the charge :unsure:

Retief:rocker2:

Come on Tiger!

Everyone loves Tiger.
:sobbing:

Tiger, that last shot! Wow! :speakles:
Get the eagle. :rocker2:

God I hope he misses this putt.
:angel:

God I hope he misses this putt.
:angel:
You didn't get your wish. :awww:

Eagle for Tiger :rocker2: :banana:

Johnson needs to get tight though, he's playing very well :(

You didn't get your wish. :awww:
I know:(

Eagle for Tiger :rocker2: :banana:

No:ras:
Johnson does not need to get tight.
Zach :banana:

Game over I think.

Unless he totally screws up now, I don't see Tiger catching him

If Johnson pars the last 2 holes it's over. We need a choke of major proportions :p

Poor Aimee in a world of Tiger fans :lol:

Wow, Tiger, what was that? :sad:

Over now for sure.

no, not yet...he's still a couple holes back of Johnson, and I don't think Johnson will be as confident @ 17 & 18. The pressure might get to him. And besides, tiger has 3 more holes left :yeah:

If Johnson pars the last 2 holes it's over. We need a choke of major proportions :p
one choke down, one more to go! ;)

see :D

Oh man this is so exciting :speakles:

I'm so nervous. :haha:

if Tiger can birdie 17 and 18 he'll win

Bah it's over :sad:

Congrats Johnson :ras:

I feel really tense and excited! :o

Justin :sad:

Tiger is so annoyed and grumpy! :unsure:

Tiger is so annoyed and grumpy! :unsure:

Really unusual for him! I;m very surprised Johnson took this tourny though.

He looks like he's going to cry. :awww:

Congratulations to Zach Johnson! :yeah:

:bigcry:

Zach Johnson:D :woohoo: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

oh man Tiger looks like he wants to cry.I have to say I did enjoy him yelling at Stevie on the 17th:lol:.

Retief:rocker2:

:crying2: SOOOOO CLOSE

:devil: He'll just go Wire-2-Wire for the British Open again :wavey:

Tiger played like crap all the weekend and still he finished #2 wooow

congrats to Zach, well done :yeah:

When Johnson thanked the Lord Jesus for his win I wanted a bolt of lightning to strike him. Does he really think the Lord Jesus was watching golf today - of all days?
I have contempt for these Christians that think their god favours them over everybody else.

Well Done Zach. Really expected him to choke towards the end but the way he held his nerve was incredible, have to give him credit. The way he played the back nine won him the tournament. Tiger was off his game and seemed grump all day, he absolutely cracked it on 17. Justin Rose choked when he knew he had a chance. Appleby had a disappointing day, too many doubles and that triple has cost him this week, he played a real solid round, wasn't for hole 1 and that laz tee shot into the water at 12 he could of won. :sad: Have to wait another year for an Australian to win.

epic stuff

I also find it amusing when sportsmen "thanks the lord" for their win as well
