Mize is officially playing alone but, as we learned on Saturday, single players are given the company of marker Jeff Knox. Knox, an Augusta member, outscored Rory McIlroy yesterday.

Holds the course record too of 61 from the members tees

the Sky cricket commentary team are generally very good, I can even tolerate Botham especially when Nasser is taking the mickey out of him.
Shane Warne's contribution ruined it a bit last year. Agree about Strauss, took him a while to warm up but becoming excellent, Atherton and Nasser different class though (and bumble for the lighter touch). |

agnew example of someone who played to a high standard and brilliant communicator. likewise with a few of the rugby guys. then you get people like A Down that are brilliant communicators about the sport they love without ever having done it. Then you get the people sh ite at both

Always wins his 2 ball when he plays this Knox fella. Rory said he had never seen anyone handle the greens so well

Before you get too worked up, know that Knox isn't exactly some chop pulled off the street. He holds the course record from the member tees at a Augusta, a 61. He's won multiple amateur titles in Georgia, and he's beaten several pros he's played with at the Masters before.
Knox is the subject of media curiosity every year, and a Guardian article in 2013 relayed some of his best stories from his role as the noncompeting marker. The piece highlighted the time Knox played against Sergio Garcia, and beat the Spaniard, who refused to shake his hand after the ignominious defeat at the hands of the amateur (h/t Jay Busbee). Unless he blows up coming into the clubhouse, Knox could add Rory to the list. At times, McIlroy has appeared on edge in the third round, an unexpected non-factor who looked defeated down in Amen Corner. He has caught some bad breaks and hit some bad shots, but losing to Knox might add to the level of frustration at a place that's confounded him since that unraveling on the Sunday lead in 2011. Update: Rory closed strong, finishing with three straight birdies to get in the red with a 1-under round of 71. According to Golf Digest's Ashley Mayo, it wasn't good enough to beat Knox: The No. 9 player in the world started the week as the co-favorite, but needed a five-foot putt in the gloaming late Friday night just to make the weekend so he could lose to the unknown amateur. Despite Rory's finish, the only thing we'll remember is Knox getting the better of him. |

sonic, I thought it was Goss but he hasn't got an (a) next to his name on pgatour so I'm not sure. filter by amateurs here http://www.masters.com/en_US/players/player_list.html

Agnew unfortunately should have got the boot maybe 5 years ago as he's now totally clueless as to what he's doing. Agree he's a good communicator though, he's the only one who can consistently beat the TV pictures without dribbling on himself.

Goss was only amateur to make cut so he won it on +10

Nasser Hussain did my head in when he first got on the team, but I actually think he's the one I like best now. Sees everything first and is actually quite funny, and bizarrely self-deprecating, which is completely at odds with what I originally thought of him.

lori - do you know how many people listen to TMS worldwide? think of a number and times it by 1000. And he is the anchor, And he played test cricket.
|

By:
Yeah, I agree about the team. They're also about the only commentary crew that properly fits the name "team" as they all bounce off each other very well.
|

By:
Gary Neville is another who done really well at his sport and has taken to presenting like a duck to water. Tbf, Jamie Carragher is quite good as well after a shaky start. Micheal Owen however is as boring as they come commentating/presenting.
Another great shot Bubba !! |

He's still clueless though Corridor. He doesn't understand many things about the game these days and refuses to keep up to date. His twitter is the clue as to the fact he's now stealing a living.
Given his competition is Blowers, who doesn't know where he is most of the time, and Vaughan who thinks he knows where he is and can't be shown otherwise, and CMJ who knows where he should be but can't get there, it's not surprising he's the anchor. Tuffers beats the lot of them for me. |

By:
Tee to green he's been better than anybody in the field.
I think the actual GIR stats would disagree but don't let that get in the way of bumming up Lee |

By:
Jamie Carragher is quite good as well after a shaky start.
He written many good articles for the daily mail. One thing about Jamie that he has a blooming brilliant memory on football and the history of football. Whilst kids were learning crappy things at school, Jamie was studying football. People asked him question to test his knowledge and Jamie always blows them away. |

well put LORI

Carragher is excellent. His book was actually a really good read which is unusual for a footballer

Yeah him and Neville are a good combo ski

By:
Spieth level par on a day where level par is good and acting like he's +7
Hope he learns from this. |

A bit harsh on CMJ though - as he is now RIP...

I really enjoyed it Ski not dull and very honest in his views. The programme Sky did on him last week was also really good

Good programme on Sky sports lately about Carragher and his time at Liverpool, worth a watch if you haven't seen it
