It's better. Still seems weird they don't have wire to wire coverage on a network. It was quaint in the '80s when you could only see about 14 minutes of Masters action per weekend, but now it just seems silly.

I also could do without them doing reads to "check out Masters.com for the latest scores...." I'M WATCHING MASTERS.COM!! GET WITH IT!!!

Tough conditions. Course is starting to show its teeth a bit.

I wonder how many of these late afternoon guys- if any- will shoot a round in red numbers.

This coverage on Masters.com is just phenomenal. Blows network coverage away.

Tiger off to bad start with a couple putts missed. As hard as the course is going to play all afternoon, he could end up going the wrong direction

Woods is falling apart.

He hasn’t hit a single shot today that makes it look like he’ll make the cut

Plenty of others playing well. He was never going to win this week anyway.

Varner III making a bid to be the first guy to win his in Masters debut since Fuzzy in '79

Schwartzel's round is pretty damn incredible.

10 More Wins

Tiger looks to be toast, unfortunately. Cut projected at +4.

_________________

Agreed, Hawg. Anyone in red numbers today has played exceptional.

Schwartzel, DJ, Hideki, Willet....lots of recent former Green Jacket winners near the top.

Rory's is a very mediocre putter. He putted better using the Cameron. He at least made some putts with it.

Busted Jay Leno 4 up on the field looking to go 5 up. How is he so good with that funky foot action?

I hate to say it, but Tiger looks like he's on steroids.

He's way too big in the upper body for his frame. No golfer looks like that without pharmaceuticals.

Probably did it because he thought it help him with his recovery.

Yes.

even his face looks like hes on roids. the guy is well known to like taking powerful drugs too. that vehicle crash he was in did not result in a dui. because he was probably on a shitload of prescribed narcotics. theres pretty much no doubt hes juicing now.

I thought the same thing—guys his age just aren’t built like that. It’s tough to put on muscle, let alone look chiseled, at his age. Testosterone levels just naturally drop.

That said, muscle only helps on drives and shots out of the rough. You still need to chip and putt.

The best part of the masters.com featured group coverage is that its live. You don't get 15 different replays of Stewart Cink's hole in one and hugging his stupid kid. You don't get 2 minutes of Tiger's past Masters highlights that we've all seen a hundred times. It's just pure golf without the fluff.

While I wouldn’t put it past him to have juiced, he basically did have to use his arms only to get around while he was rehabbing the leg, so that may have a bit to do with it.

A lot of fluff on ESPN indeed. I had a hard time finding out how Morikawa was doing with all the Tiger replays.

Scheffler just running away with it..

Why is Charl Schwartzel wearing pants from the 90's? Pleated Dockers.

i think thats why theyre letting him do it. obviously because of ratings too, but i dont think anyone will care if he wins. roids might help you focus better on puts or whatever, but for the most part it's still skill. and its not like barry bonds hitting 70 home runs... if tiger can only drive 400yds it wont allow him to win. he still needs to be good.

i think its a lot like NBA shooters. they dont juice for good reason. muscle memory matters more than strength. you cant inject muscle memory.

lot of the top PGA tour golfers juice, Rory even has the juicer's face thing going you used to see on McGwire:

Ok Tiger done. Back to regular programming.

Tiger gets a participation trophy.

Makes the cut 14 months after almost losing his leg while rehabbing from another back surgery. He doesn't have to do it. Pretty cool.
