    A Tradition Unlike Any Other

    The Masters is my favorite tourney of the year. I pull for the course to be tough and to see some ridiculously fast greens. I know it isn't fun for the players, but I sure enjoy it.

    It is one of the weeks that I watch thursday and friday. Me and a buddy usually plan our golf getaway on this weekend. We play in the mornings and watch afternoons. Timing didn't work out this year. Someday, I hope to attend.


    Odds to win,

      I'm not quite that fanatic (Masters and US Open are equal for me), but I love it too. Ratings will be insanely high on Sunday if Tiger is in contention. Go Tiger!

          A few of my friends went to the par 3 tourney on Wednesday and watched the practice rounds on Tues and Wed last year. They said it was unbelievable to even attend that. Tickets are very hard to come by.

              Tiger is still the odds fave to win, even better than "the field," amazing. Where did you get those Coach?

                  I would take Ernie Els to win over Tiger.

                  Els has been playing well the last few weeks -- if Tiger wins after so much time away from competition and after everything he has been through the last few months, it will be one of the most amazing sports accomplishments of all time.

                      I love to watch each of the 4 majors Thur-Sun. Everything about them is fun to see.

                      I'm with you when it comes to rooting for the course. I love when the best in the world have to dig deep and find a way to boost their game in order to shoot a winning score. That's why my favorite to watch is the US Open. But if I could attend only one, it would be The Masters because of the course and the tradition of the tournament.

                          I'm rooting against Tiger.

                                  Angel Cabrera is 60-1? That's racist.

                                          I would take a whole lot of the field over Tiger. The guy hasn't swung a club in competition for what, 7-8 months? I don't care if he's Tiger, I'm guessing he doesn't even expect to be in it on Sunday. This is a warmup tournament, a chance to get back into the action in the most controlled environment in golf.

                                          Is there a way to bet on the 2 side of the 7-2?

                                              Tiger has hired 90 private bodyguards including former FBI agents to keep his 15 mistresses away from him in Augusta.

                                              Tiger Woods returns to golf in Augusta... with an army of 90 bodyguards

                                              Tiger Woods will be guarded by a ‘ring of steel’ of 90 private bodyguards as well as armed deputies on his return to golf at the Masters tournament this week.

                                                  I will always root for Phil Mickelson to win, but I'm slowly becoming a Tiger fan because of the media weasls like John Feinstein going after him.

                                                      I root for Phil too.

                                                      Tiger is being received very warmly by the crowds, it seems,
