An Experiment in Scotch

Zach John­son, the 2007 Mas­ters champion.

If you don’t see the cor­re­la­tion, Peter, don’t ask the stu­pid fuck­ing question.

Some­thing is seri­ously wrong with Tiger, after that eagle is usu­ally the time he starts to destroy the competition.  I felt like when he made that putt, it was just like when he chipped in on poor DiMarco in 2005.  Instead, he drops it in the water on 15.  Of course, he’s in the posi­tion …

Appleby doesn’t even look like he’s trying.  He putts like I do, just hop­ing, pray­ing, beg­ging for the ball to get close so that he can’t three putt.  It’s sad but he doesn’t seem to have the heart of a champion.

Of course as soon as I say that, God, Augusta and Earl show me why Tiger wins the Mas­ters every other year.  No other play­ers ball would have rolled down that hill.

And Zach opens up a two shot lead with not many peo­ple behind him to fear.  Sure, Tiger can still get some­thing done but he just doesn’t look like this is going to be his day.

And then there were 5.  Good­bye, Mr. Sabbatini.

And then there were 6.  Good­bye, Mr. Appleby.

So I guess now Finchy thinks Sab­ba­tini is the man to beat?  Does any­one think Rory is really going to win this?   Not with dri­ves like that one on 14.
