The Masters!

[mariner4life]

For some reason I want Fowler to win it.

[JK]

Would quite like a fowler win apart from fact I have money on speith. I reckon he's coming for it. Gonna be a nice morning....followed by 18 holes of ambrose at titirangi. Hopefully I got the shit golf out of my system yesterday!!

[mariner4life]

Sergio! I don't mind that at all, well done sir. That's a fucking long wait.

Yeah. I don't really follow golf one-handed like some of you blokes, but I know he's one of those guys who seemed to have all the talent and just maybe needed a break.

Today he fucking crushed it. That shot into the 14th was tight.

Fark, long wait indeed. The monkey is finally off his back

I'm thrilled he won. He's come close so many times. Good on him.

[Bovidae]

Yeah, even as a non-golf fan I'm happy he's finally won a major.

So who has the tag of best current player never to win a major now?

[canefan]

@Bovidae No one of Sergio's stature springs to mind

[Tim]

Lee Westwood.

[barbarian]

What an amazing day of golf. Happened to be 'working from home' this morning so caught every shot.

The last six holes were fucking incredible to watch. Couldn't look away. Both players were striping it.

Had cash on Rose but so happy Sergio won. Really deserved it.

Lee Westwood.

He's been off the boil for a while, his rank is #54. Like Sergio he only needs four days of dream golf I suppose

[taniwharugby]

Stoked for Sergio, been so close on a number of occasions before, to finally get it done!!

[ACT Crusader]

Didn't catch any of it this year, usually watch the final round, but was very happy to hear Sergio won the green jacket. Great result and happy he kept his nerve in the playoff.

surely a rule change needs to be made to stop the cnuts at home from being cnuts at home.

I would suspect the writers of the rules did not anticipate cable tv the internet and social media when they said it was fine for external parties to report infractions

[KiwiPie]

@canefan I'd be surprised if Westwood does it. He's 43 now and after 3 second places (11 top 5s in all) his chance might have gone. Although his record is very similar to Sergio's overall .... he's just a few years older.

Fox at the Masters: Family join Ryan Fox for emotional trip down iconic Magnolia Lane

Fox tees off at 4.36am Friday morning NZ time and is grouped with Billy Horschel & Harris English

[taniwharugby]

@1kiwi he's paying $151 at TAB, same as Garcia but better than LIV Phil on $201, which seems odd, or not...

Rory clear fave on $7.50, but cant see him taking it.

Outside Fox, I'd love to see Adam Scott win, but he is well down at $101.

I think the winner will be a known player, but not one of the big ones, I just havent decided who yet haha

How good...

[taniwharugby]

Solid opening round by Fox at -2, with some good players alongside like Cam Smith, Justin Thomas.
