OT: The GOLF Thread (The Majors, etc.)

Six of the last twelve Masters champions have been left handed:

Mike Weir (2003)
Phil Mickelson (2004, 2006, 2010)
Bubba Watson (2012, 2014)
 
Masters ratings down from 2013

By Shane Bacon 2 hours ago Devil Ball Golf

With no Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson or late round drama, the ratings for the 2014 Masters took a dip compared to a season ago.

The final round on Sunday got a 7.8 rating, down from the 10.2 rating that the Masters got on Sunday in 2013.

You can point the finger at the absence of Tiger or the missed cut by Phil, but it really just boils down to the fact that the final two hours of the Masters didn't provide a ton of fireworks, with the only drama being just how Watson would finish out his round on the 18th green.

Yep. It was over after Amen corner.

Thought Spieth had it for quite some time though (first 7 holes)

oh I know, the hypocrisy of it

the six they won in a row are part of the real team, but not the eight in a row they lost

damn, there is an articled student here in the tightest skirt possible, she just walked by so I lost my train of thought,,,,

He brings in a lot of money.

I am not fan of the guy either but he brings in the viewers/money/attention.

Especially with the other big names (Phil, Rory, etc) doing nothing this year.
