Never to early for a Masters thread.
The Masters 2022 edition
McIlroy may well be a late bloomer. He'd be a popular winner, I believe.
Thanks for starting this thread - early primer for The Masters Contest coming up soon.
We want Phil! We want Phil!
Rory and Brooks will take it down to the wire and then either Sam Burns or Justin Thomas will shoot a final round 64 to edge both of them out.
Don't know why that vision just came upon me. Since I'm about the worst sports handicapper there is I wouldn't bet even a small amount on it. I'd still make a reasonable bet that Rory will win a Masters and get his career slam before it's all over - pretty sure that will still happen.
Bravopilot I'm disappointed they told him not to come. Nothing he did had any effect on the Masters in any way. Let him face the music and move on. Yes, the first day it might have taken away from the actual tournament but after that it would have been fine. I'd absolutely love to see Phil win the US Open just to watch the golf world explode.
garyt1957 Popular for sure, but I can't see him ever putting well enough to win
He seems " streaky" with the putter which is why I wouldn't count him out. He could change putters for the 90th time, have a good 4 days and win. The next week, same putter, easier greens have 10 3 putts in the first round.
If Cam Smith putts like he did a couple weeks ago.....look out!
Typhoon He seems " streaky" with the putter
He is streaky with the putter, but it seems to me he can't putt when it counts then when he's out of it and the pressure's off he starts making putts and shoots a 64 on the last day to move up, but never really contend. This might not be the case at all, but it seems that's the way it goes to me
