I'm hoping and expecting Phil to win.
The 2012 Golf Masters Tournament
- Thread starter Marcosdeto
- Start date
Albatross for Louis!
Oosthuizen just got the first double eagle at the Masters on live TV. he is now in the lead at -10.
Incredible.
Amazing shot. Hope he wins it.
I'm hoping Louie wins it. Mainly because he has one of the coolest last names ever.
Shaping up to be the best final day at Augusta. How many years do you wait for a hole-in-one, and all of a sudden, two in one day on one hole. Not forgetting Ooosthuizen's Alb either. All close at the top as well, anyone could win this. Need Bubba to start making those 15-20 footers.
Who is leading this shizzle? I havent really had a chance to follow it at all this year
Oosthuizen leading on -9. He is one shot ahead of big Phil.
Mickelson in a bit of a mess here
Complete melt down I'd say. What's he thinking?
Mickelson will drop 2 shots here atleast.
Yep. He just blew his tourny there. Go back to the tee Phil.
I feel so sorry for Phil there 
When I've played and been in that position (which is usually when I've played.) my dad always told me you have five minutes to find your ball, then you've got to take a drop. He did find (and identify) his ball, so I'm assuming he had to play from there. Surely that was an absolute last resort??
Golf's most irritating trait - that no matter how well 17 holes, or even 71, go, one hole, one shot even, can completely ruin the entire round.
Oh well.

Hang on a sec, where the feck is McIlroy?
Westwood and Harrington coming back now too.
And Tiger can't run to his Buick fast enough. Poor showing from him.
What does show from Mickelson is just how fine the the line between success and screwing up is which golf doesn't typically do, not like that at least.
It is a cruel game; you have got to admire those who can hold it together over four rounds and win one of these majors.
There are quite a few moving up the leaderboard now. This should be a good ending.
Anyone But Lefty for me - that triple bogey was like watching Arteta scoring the winner all over again!
Seems like pretty decent guy. Why not him? At this point I'd take him over Woods any day.
I've hated him for well over a decade - I can't even remember why now
Just one of those things, completely irrational, but there you are.
How much does the Masters count towards the player rankings if you do very well or very badly?

I also used to hate him but I've changed recently since he seems very humble when he wins.
Bubba is on his way here. Come on Louis!
a lot.
A Major win gets you 100 points, meanwhile winning the Aussie Open will get you only 32.
Of course golf, like Tennis, do a rolling ranking - 24 or 36 months, can't remember for sure now.
at the guy who was floored by the ball.Finished on +5. Had a meltdown all yesterday and today and ended up nowhere near.

I was the same with Montgomery. Never really had a good reason but loved to see him fall flat on his ace.
Just seeing Poulter putting there. Really? Not saying he should be a conformist but those clothes are ridiculous.
So realistically at this point how far down does the list of those still realistically in contention go? Would it go down to the group on -4?
I wouldn't say so far. Mickleson upwards except those way into the back nine have a chance. Looking like a two horse race at the mo' with Bubba and Oosthuizen, but don't discount Mickleson. His front nine yesterday was even par.
Kuchar is looking good now too.
Depends how he deals with his double. Three putted from four feet - very poor. Bubba just needs to find the tiniest bit extra here. Missed two birdie puts by less than an inch.
Bloody love Peter Alliss
I see, I have never paid much attention to gulf before outside of the Ryder Cup so I am trying to work everything out as we go along.
Louis just dropped a shot. I hope he isn't cracking up.
He brought about 8 players into contention with that.
Ya. The majors are always exciting since the bottling is at its maximum.
