  Best Masters i have seen in a long time. Will Adam Scott finish it off and be the first aussie winner?

  Can't believe there isn't a very active thread going on.

  Day and Scott made a great push to win it.

   

  Back at around 15 when there were lioke 5 or 6 guys at -10, I thought that Schwartzel had the best chance.  He really has some stones for pulling that off.

  Poor Rory though.  One of the worst meltdowns we've seen in a while.......

  Schwartzel deserves the win..... he just plain took it away from everybody else. Big time coke by Rory... to bad he looks like he could be one of the GREAT ones. Maybe next year.

  It was Tigers to win or loose...and he lost

  If he makes those 8 or so putts from under 10', that he missed, on sat. and sun. he wins going away

  Brilliant 31 on the front sunday, though, It looks like he might be getting some of the old magic back

  Probably the worst since Greg Norman was about 5 ahead of Faldo and managed to squander it in the last round.  And before that Seve being a few ahead with about 4 holes to play and throwing it away to Jack Nicklaus.  But all these players were still winners and Rory will be too.

  I'm going to agree with you... the difference is that Rory's meltdown shows his age and his maturity.  He took it with grace and style, answered every question and will undoubtably learn and grow from this episode.  He will be fine. 

  Unlike some others who treated their meltdown without a shred of class or humility, thinking that a front 9 charge on Sunday was going to be enough, Rory will be the better golfer for it.  And we get to watch.

  Hope they kept the green jacket in his size for next year.  =)

  It was a Great Masters, Great for us the spectators, We had Hope, We had Skill, We had Meltdown and we had Tiger.

  What more could we ask for,  Nice to see you name on here again Snaike.

  Aside from one small kind of death wail after he hit it in rays creek, Rory did handle himself very well, unlike Tiger, who has always been an arrogant a**hole, it's just that when Tiger is on his game and shooting lights out ,there is none better. It's just fun to watch.
