Day 3 at The Masters

Inclement weather ...especially for the last groups finishing... anything could happen...maybe someone like Walker, Fleetwood or even Matsuyama might prosper...maybe even British Open guys like Spieth,Stenson or Oosthuizen....Mc Ilroy can play wind....did I miss anyone?

Interesting facts .....winner of round 1 has only won masters twice inlast 17 years -,and they second round scores were under par not PLUS 2 (Spieth ) The winner average first round -3 and again only two winners have won from first round over par ! ( DJ and JT)

All the talk about the expected bad weather today so trying to find a clue as to who might be better in the conditions.I remember the conditions at the Open last year were pretty bad on the Friday and whilst I appreciate Birkdale and Augusta are different tests there maybe something in the scores that gives an indication on who can cope in adversity. Those scores for the leading players were as follows;

Reed 75
Leishman 76
Stenson 73
McIlroy 68
Speith 69
DJ 72
Thomas 80
Finau 73
Fowler 71
Oosthuizen 74
Bubba 72
Hoffman 73

Thought the Thomas score was very surprising especially as he shot a first round 67

As Rory has the lowest round in above to balance it up a bit, I remember Rory saying he would not change his game for one tournament a year, talking about his poor round in windy conditions at the Open one year.

Rory plays with quite a strong draw and if he does struggle in the wind it is with a Right to left wind, Mind you Reed hits the same shape as well.

2-ball

woods - 1.89
poulter - 2.6
tie - 10

The head Chef at Augusta dreading a fat Pat win

had a bit on ap hin barn rat to beat fitzpatrick

Will Fat Pat have a bigger lead final day ?

Only needs Leishman to drop a few shots, even if the rest pickup a few birdies

apologies 7

Throw not through

red button not working for me

greens much slower

I like the look of Leishman to beat Reed in their 2 ball.Leishman obviously likes the course and I'm not convinced Reed is going to be able to back up yesterdays excellent round.

im thinking kuchar but im also a c**t

No amen corner coverage tonight  ????

Seems easy scoring right now - need the conditions to kick up once fat pat gets out there

Day climbing up scoreboard slowly

Here comes Rahmbo
