Who is it gonna be? Always drama Sunday at Augusta.

now that I think about it, I feel confident that adam scott has a really good chance of winning, but watch out for the argentine !

What a finish that was!! I was happy Scott won it, he deserves after how close he's been in the past. I think Cabrera will handle the loss better than Scott would have, which is why I feared for Adam if he lost. Having said that, now he has this in the bag he should be able to win multiple majors.

I do love Angel though and he showed what a class act he was at the end. Always enjoy seeing him play, gracious in victory and defeat. Overall a great masters!!!

How fascinating is this Players' Championship?

bought the denver golf vip pass again this year, but this year i'll actually use all my rounds up. been out only twice so far. shot a pretty pedestrian 101 at wellshire two days ago. hoping to play enough this year to drop my scores below 90 with some consistency. the season i played the most previously (2 years ago) i consistently scored low 90's, with a couple rounds dipping into the 80's. I'd like to at least match that type of a year this year.

it was my first time there, but it's by far the best of the denver public courses. wish it was closer to me, i'd play it more often.

Let me know next time you're that close in town. South Suburban course is virtually in my back yard. Not the greatest course, but good nonetheless.

Y'all see my nigga, Phil, today? Dude was turnt up!

Good for Lefty!

Right on. I just walked off the golf course today, jumped in my car and heard on the radio that Phil won! Now going to watch the replay on ABC! USA! USA!

Phil Mickelson won his first British Open on Sunday. And now he's got to pay the price. Literally.

Thanks to some hefty taxes in England and California, where Mickelson resides, estimates have Lefty only bringing home around 40 percent of the $1.4 million that he earned at Muirfield. According to ESPN, the United Kingdom takes nearly half of Mickelson's winnings ($628,900), while California will take another 13.3 percent ($192,300).

After several other small taxes are taken out of the total, estimates have Mickelson bringing home $569,707 of the $1.4 million first-place prize.

It rained pretty hard here last night. I got up and played 9 this morning after my wort incident. Here's the green on the 7th hole which is a par 3.



Those aren't sticks, those are worms. Was kind of interesting putting today.

I shot a 10 over, 45 this morning, but I was striking the ball well. My biggest issue was 4 penalties I had to take for either hitting water or going OB.

If that was your tee shot, I'd say you did well on that hole. I shot a 49 last night and still managed three pars. My driving was atrocious, my second shots were decent all night and my short game was on and off. When it was on...three pars, when it was off...bad things.

I had to chip on to that hole. It was a 120 yard par 3 that I closed my clubface on the tee shot. I hit it hole high, and if I would have hit it square, I probably would have hit my 9 iron over the green. I pared 3 holes and got double bogies on 3 holes. My longest drive today was 255 which I robbed myself of about 20 yards on since I missed the fairway.
