US Masters
-
Hspeith with a 3 shot lead at present, by the looks of the leaderboard she's pretty tough out there today. <br><br>
The Masters website is pretty damn cool -
Speith drops one on 10, Rory in the trees on 18 2 back...<br>
T<br>
Lee is finished at -2 equal 3rd with Peircy and Casey.<br><br>
Most players have gone backwards in the back 9, Rory likely to drop back to -2 at the 18th...Speith will have a chance to take a substantial lead into day 3 if he can have a decent back 9 -
Great par by Rory...the amateur fella is making a charge now into -3, Speith still -5
-
<p>Speith back to -6 (+2 for the day) Amateur Dechambeau is alone in 2nd at -4 (-3 for day) </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Of players on the course still, Matsuyama had a couple of birdies in a row to get to -2 (-2 for day) otherwise most have gone backwards.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>BUbba Watson, Adam Scott sitting on the wrong side of the cut line right now (although Scott has 7holes to play including the very birdie-able 15th</p> -
<p>and just as I post, Speith and Dechambeau (playing together) make bogey on 16 and Scott birdie on 12 to move above the projected cutline</p>
-
<p>another bogey on 17 opened the door for Bubba to make the cut and brings the field closer.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Conditions are pretty rough (for Augusta) </p> -
<p>Yep, Speith is +3 for the day and finishes with par on 18 for -4</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So Lee is 2 back, plenty of talent within striking distance for day 3</p> -
<p>ouch, Dechambeau (A) had a 7 on the last to drop back to even for the tournament.</p>
-
<p>Setting up beautifully with Jordan and Rory in the last group. If conditions improve then it's hard to see anyone else in the green jacket. But if they keep getting worse...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My theory is that if you are within 5 shots of the leader, you are in it. So there are still plenty of guys in with a shot. If the wind starts blowing, and someone like JDay or Matsuyama shoots -3 and Jordan and Rory stay where they are or even go backwards... game on.</p> -
Horror start for Danny alright.
-
Gusty winds out there again with most players going backwards, except Speith at this point, with a 3 stroke lead over Matsuyama
-
Former winner, 58 year old Bernhard Langer birdies 13,14 and 15 to get himself into a tie for 2nd.<br><br>
Rory really struggling now. <br><br>
Lee has grabbed back 2 of the 5 he dropped early on but still well off the pace -
Love hearing the chat between player and caddie
-
<p>Spieth bringing himself back to the field here! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Bogey 17 and got a tricky putt for bogey on 18, odds to win jumped from $1.55 to $1.75, what will the be is he misses this one</p> -
<p>Ouch, rough finish for Spieth: bogey-double, has a 1 stroke lead over Smylie Kaufman at -2, Langer, Matuyama -1 and Day and Dustin lurking at even.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Spieth dropped out to $2, which is pretty decent odds now I'd say, was 1976 last time someone went wire to wire and Spieth now lead the Masters 6 straight rounds.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Rory 5 back.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Lee has dropped right off the pace with a 79.</p>

<p>Still Spieth's to lose IMO. Can't see Kaufman or Langer challenging, and I'm not sure on Matsuyama. Would take a good round from Day or Johnson.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Conditions supposed to be better tomorrow, which helps Spieth as well.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Predict Jordan wins it at -5, two shots clear of Day and Matsuyama.</p>
