The Masters

I repeat this every year but in 2015 I forecast that McIlroy would never win another major much to the horror of many on here now over 20 majors later I have absolutely no reason to change my mind.How about my critics if they are still out there?
Not a critic 50's you're entitled to an opinion but McIlroy will win another major.
He may not win the grand slam though
 
Not a single mention of Rose until he’d finished. I guess that makes us all numpties when it becomes to golf.
I hope he can maintain it. And I doubt the winner will match/beat DJ’s -20 five months ago.
 
Considering he was world number 1 in 2018 and is now about number 40 (ish) I'm not surprised nobody saw Rose being this far ahead - especially after the first 7 holes where he was 2 over

What a display from him - hope he can keep it up

Why does it make us numpties not mentioning Rose?
He was 2 over after 7 then came back with a phenomenal 11 holes in 9 under which was well past 11pm our time.
Most will have finished with the thread by then!

It'll be the first time in ages that I haven't had money on Rose in the masters as he's there or there abouts most times.
He's going through a transitional period at the moment and is back with Sean Foley as his coach.

You can bet your bottom dollar that he'd snap your hand off for another back 9 like he had yesterday on Sunday when it matters.

I firmly believe that he only😁 has to shoot -4 over the next 3 rounds to win it.
Easier said than done!!
 
Nice to see the British lads taking the early headlines ahead of the frat boys. Of course it's where you end up on Sunday that counts, but good all the same.

It took a lot of people on here 25 to 30 games to realise Critch was doing quite well. Numpties full-stop. 🤣

3 over so far today.

He's falling down that leaderboard like a stone right now. It's a marathon not a sprint.

The Masters has the smallest entry of the Majors. Take a look at some of the ‘invitees’ and you’ll see a collection of very good players but they are a ‘division’ below the best. Cross off the out of form players and choose your winner from the rest.
Nobody (including me) chose Rose before and even as early scores came in. Ok, Wizzerboy?

All previous winners are invited regardless of age, so that restricts the field.

Thanks for the history lesson on entrants to the masters👍🏻
Please read my post properly, I didn't diss Rose or his ability to win the comp although today seems to have caught up with him.
Here's a history lesson on major golf championships, it's very rarely won on the first round OK, Stoney hill?
 
He's doing okay now, it was a great start yesterday so he just needs on more good round. Plenty of there Brits in and around too.

No offence taken. I will not have backed the winner either if.......Rose wins.
Numpties rule, but I will be pleased.
 
As it happens a very good back 9 AGAIN for Rose.
Still atop the leader board and at the end of the day even if someone else gets there at plays end Rosie will still be in the mix👍🏻
 
I think Rose has done seriously well there. All to play for and he can rest up a bit too going out last or near last tomorrow 👍
 
I put a fiver each way on Cameron Smith at 28/1, Birdie and an Eagle to put him joint second on -5, then gets a bogey and a double bogey the next two holes 🙈😂

Morning Highfield. We haven’t met yet but I’ve a feeling we will eventually. Good to hear that you are getting your form back.
 
I must think I am playing at Augusta instead of Green Drive , a commentator mentioned yesterday that the greens are so difficult that it can be easier to miss the green , instead of landing on certain areas of the greens!
 
It’s a very close leaderboard isn’t it. Rose or Spieth for me. Rose if he gets off to a confident start.
 
Rose has shown a lot of mettle in the two days so far. His putting has been his saviour and he can win if continuing with his eagle eye on the green. Looks as if he is carrying an injury as he looks facially drawn and pained. Kudos to him for his battling performance. Yesterday he went into his personal zone to stay in the lead. Truly hardcore from the 40 year old.
 
Leaderboard looking good and we'll be ok providing @Phil_bfc deux doesnt start a thread of Critch.

He has been known to grab a quick quality ton from nowhere.
