Koepka will probably win it, the guy is a machine.
I'd like to see Phil make a run but he'll fold like a cheap suit.

I love spieth, but I think he won't come back, he had a hot 18 months, came out very young, won everything in sight, then poof, gone.
I hope he finds his way back, but he has a head issue, not a talent issue.

I’ll take the British Open over the Masters any day and twice on Sunday, although it’s the only tournament in the USA worth watching.

Lots of better ways to spend the weekend. Agreed. Never played golf. Never wanted to. It’s a lot like shooting...chase your tail looking for utopia, buy every new gadget and believe whatcha got sold is the cure all. And like shooting, it’s more fun when you just forget all the crap And, like shooting, there are those who choose not to have an interest in it, and instead of quietly allowing others to enjoy it, feel the need to denigrate it as an activity.

He's a great kid. I was watching some event and they were interviewing Gary Player and he said he wanted to speak to Spieth and point out one thing that would turn him around. I guess that conversation never took place.

Greatest tournament of em all.
Spieth!! Last I saw he was on the verge of being cut.. He'll be lucky to be in the tournament to the end - and even then he'll be lucky to be higher than 20th.. Too bad.. He was quite a golfer 3-4 years ago.. The Masters is THE preeminent golf event every year.. I believe the Masters 3 years ago has settled in his gray matter. He messed up on 13 (16?) twice and hasn't been the same since. Koepka hasn't let any mishap bother him. He's the guy to watch. McIlroy and Spieth need to get their act together. 2016 Spieth was up by 5. He bogeyed 10,11, and took a quad on 12.

I wouldn’t mind seeing Fowler win a Masters.
Or ANYBODY but Tiger.
Maybe ole Phil has one more big win in him.

WOW, Phil the Thrill is at five under. And he usually starts slow.
Would LUV to see Lefty win another Green jacket! My second choice after Rickie

Really sucks not having Cable TV or Satellite TV when the Masters is on. 😢
At least I’ll be able to watch Sat. & Sun. on local TV with my cheap ass antenna. 😁
