Winning score -around -7 or so??

Any idea folks?

Its very open.

The early morning lads 2moro could come back to the field given the soft conditions it could be a brute if they want to make it before the fairyways dry out.

Woods needs to spend the next few hours at the range, his swing was in pieces today. level par was good score the way he drove the ball.

If Rory could drive like Westwood we'd b flyin

Mickelson havin an absolute mare

The wet course is playing havoc...usually balls would bounce around but not anymore...stopping exactly where they are aimed and is really causing havoc.

What is Rory up too?? not playing good and no real reason for it?

3 week holiday might have something to do with it

The thing about this Masters

Long Hitters usually are less accurate massive disadvantage the way the course is play
Short Hitters more accurate and can keep the ball out of trouble

Short Hitters will be overpowered eventually tho and Long Hitters can get away with it if other part of the game up to par.

Hard to count anyone out, Rory just seems not the same as last year.

5 clear of who, is it Tigger you mean ? Tigger still with huge chance doh Westwood looks in the groove ............ I have furyk and others and the only shot they showed of Furyk was on 18 where he birdied to be -2, bit unfair by Sky

Westwood sublime today.

Brilliant 71 from McIlroy in an entirely different sense, hugely important finish.

Rory did well to get away with a 71 as Dan said, his driving went to pot at the turn so to be only 4 behind is a good result. There is a good score out there for the likes of Rory once he finds the fairway. With the greens soft if he gets the ball in the right positions he can go flag hunting.

Phil played like a 20 odd handicapper for the most part and somehow managed to get out of it at +2, he is still not out of it if he can get it together but he needs major improvement with his driving (his swing looked all over the shop) but as with Rory the way the course is playing if Phil can hit some fairways (big IF) he could post a score.

good first day, decided to green up and relax for the weekend, i've  3 out of first 5 in betting running for me, but westwood still my biggest winner if can continue his tee to green, his putting the only worry and the greens might get faster.. he defo  could have been a few shots better off except for a few lipped puts.

hopefully gonna be an exciting weekend, i'd say rory would be the happiest of the golfers after day 1, esp with his bad start. gl all.

68,68,68 and Phil could still win it, it's a long shot alright but i think it's just his driving that needs sorting.

I've thrown a few €€€ on Dufner @ 46, Furyk @ 55, Molinari @ 70 and Cabrera @ 85 but my biggest winners are still Rory and then Phil by a long way

Wouldn't be good for Padraig being weighed down with my bet, so threw a score on stricker at 55's to ease Paddys burden.!!!

dufner to -5 tied for lead

Usually finds reverse wen he gets near d top tho - keep goin

Double bogey right on que

Dufner back to -4

Come on Tiger, no increase in the lead.

VERY Happy with that. Westy does he usual, never a Major Champion.

No clutch gene

Dufner leads

.

Couples to -4 - gwan freddie

Dufner bogeyed the last to finish -5, well in it!
