Mattyv In addition, perhaps soften the fairways to limit the amount of role.

    What if they went to a more balata like ball that had more spin.? Big hitters would also be much wilder and it might not be worth the extra distance to go hard at it?

        garyt1957 A change to equipment that makes bad shots worse would seem to be an obvious avenue to explore - would put more emphasis on the quality of a player's ballstriking. The long hitters would still have an advantage when it comes to distance, but would they take the risk of maximising distance if a bad swing put them 60 yards off line instead of 20?

          Watch live on CBSSports.com -------- cool. Following Tiger now.

          Looking like they've gone with some pretty nasty pin placements on the front nine to start the tournament. Just watched two guys on number 5 (actually I think it may have been 6 - not sure as I walked in from the room I'm working in for a brief look). One putts from the bottom of the hill and watches his putt make a u-turn 15 feet short of the hole and come right back to him. The other putts from the top of the hill, runs his putt a bit past the hole and it rolls all the way down to the bottom of the hill 60 feet away. Watching that happen to pros is interesting. ESPN+ has holes 4, 5, and 6 showing live.

          Masters.com has some decent featured groups right now. Woods group and Scheffler group.

            Mattyv Woods group and Scheffler group.

            Watching these groups on ESPN+, pretty good coverage.

              Bernhard's head looks GIANT for that little body. It looks photoshopped.

                  Mattyv All you would have to do is move tee boxes left or right from current locations if possible.
                  Imagine #13 if the tee box (somehow) was 15 yards left.

                      😮

                      I believe the divorce is final Mr. Ancer. 🙄

                          SMT have been saying that for years about most pro set ups. Moving back not the answer. Move tees left or right.

                            Looks like he will make the cut, so far, so I am good.
                            I hope he wins, if not, I have no problem rooting for Mully. Rory too.

                            Mully was just caught on audio after his tee shot on 18

                            and during his post round interview, they played the clip of that tee shot, complete with sound ON
                            LOL

                              Kinda impressed by Tiger. Will be interesting if he can do all 4 days.
