Golf - classic or dud

feel its rorys

Rory in the best run of sustained all round good golf that I can remember from him. Justin Thomas looked really good early season but has tailed off during the Florida swing. Think either Molinari or Shauffele have a really good chance. Now that Sergio has a green jacket I'll be rooting for Kiradech Aphibarnrat and his wonderfully old fashioned golf swing. P sure that whatever happens I won't see a swing as perfect as the one Jin Young Ko just won the ANA with this weekend or a -5 finish over the last 6 holes to close out the tournament at augusta national like the one Jennifer Kucho produced to win the women's amateur on Saturday.

nice, very still swing, not a lot of motion

Anyone watching? There have been some lovely underdog stories at the top of the leaderboard so far. Canadian Corey Conners finished on -2. From the BBC:

played in the Masters as an amateur four years ago, won the Texas Open to earn his place in the locker room this week - after surviving a six-man play-off just to get into the field and then making 10 birdies in the final round.

Justin Harding (South African, first time at Masters) on -4. I know these early leaders usually drop away over the weekend, but I still like to imagine that someone totally unexpected will excel.

yeah been tuned in for sure. matsuyama and couples looking to miss the cut :(

It is so unpredictable... I always want Matsuyama to do well in the majors, but he usually falls away on the last day.

Bryson DeChambeau for me

ahem how would one ahem watch ahem

streaming live on the masters cbs website in the states.

What an insane shot! Does anyone ever play it like that for real?

Ty Ty folks

the margin for error is too thin. he could hit a normal shot from there much easier

that's unreal

True, but I reckon Spieth at the top of his game would have the nerve to pull it off anyway (not that he is of that temperament).

i mean i could see someone doing it if they were out of contention but you'd never see it otherwise i wouldnt think

in other news i just hate sergio garcia's swing so much

Haha awww...but I know what you mean.

So...Tiger Woods is good again then.

thanks for the links guys the cricfree ones are awful, the cbssports shpuld i be looking at the featured groups or what?

sorry for pita

Cricfree is okay if you watch with an adblocker and test all the streams. One of them always gets working after a while.

Never mind the golf, am getting a good stream of the Arsenal Napoli game off cric, thanks Number None

xp all freezing up for me perhaps dublin is low on internet

I'm watching the second one at the moment and it's doing okay. Sorry you're not finding one! Maybe try Crichd?

ill keep trying ta and sorry for threadbusting

Good luck!

Jason Day wins best dressed. Spieth's Bassetts Allsorts and Rickie's camo a close second.

spieth yikes

please let's not mock a man in trouble, I'm hearing enough glee about it at home

lol

spieth like uth

Kiradech up there!

brooks is rolling

He seems to absolutely thrive under the spotlight. I hope he stays the course!

brooks is such a stone cold killer down the stretch of majors. some of the up and downs he made on the back 9 at shinnecock last year were insane. made me really happy to see ariya jutanagarn, the womens #1, following kiradech around yesterday. thailand represent!!

kinda love sergio's swing tbh such an extreme transition from vertical to horizontal shaft on the downswing, ridiculous amount of lag, only trouble is when someone unathletic and untalented like me tries to replicate it and ends up blocking the ball 30 yards right!

nice to see tangent's boy handily placed. casey shooting 81 was a big shock to me, thought him and adam scott would both do well, at least scotty didn't let me down.

Casey’s round was rouuuggggh

Sergio makes it work obv but I just don’t like watching it. Feel the same about Dustin Johnsons

sandy lyle shooting the same score as rory is so lol. only at the masters. langer shooting -1 not even a surprise at this point. no way jason day is still on the tour at 40 imo let alone making it to the seniors.

That was hard to watch him play in so much discomfort yesterday

oscar bravo, you're fka pandemic right? if so i still haven't properly apologised for ludicrous treatment before, and glad you're back

lol my interests are as limited as ever :) don't worry about it i'm probably annoying enthusiastic about a couple of things that nobody i know in irl has any interest in ie football and golf so ilx probably got the brunt of it back then. no hard feelings. joe gomez has made up for everything;)

excellent! :) that is an actual weight off my conscience. you may scorn any future leicester city champions league run with absolute impunity haha

and yeah, watching jason day lean on his putter to get a ball out of the hole was p much when we turned the stream off last night, poor bloke

and he's leading. this would be an all-time performance if he wins it

pandemic u fucker get back on ilf

I only have battery enough to check the poll - hope nothing changes in the leaderboard today.

Welcome back pandemic/Oscar!!

Matsuyama back in contention!

Yes!

And cantley posted a -8!

finau-birdie,birdie,birdie,par,par,birdie,birdie,eagle. -7 thru 8 holes on the day

adam scott's iron play was droolworthy yesterday

oops correction delete one of finau's birdies -6 not -7 today .
loser.
