    Scheffler at 13… Oh, my.

    Damn, a 4 putt at 9 and then a 3 jack at 13 from 10 ft? Painful. (I hope he doesn't get scar tissue like Spieth '15-16)

    Brooks is an amazing player when he's right. That '17-19 stretch was most Tiger-like stretch I've ever seen.

    How amazing is it that on Masters.org you can literally watch every single shot of any player?

    Been that way for a while. When da man mentioned that about Scheffler, I went straight there and watched the five shots in, like, 45 seconds.

    I can't foresee having any complaints about the masters.org blanket coverage.

    After being so secretive (at least it seemed that way to me) for so long, it's incredible what you can see now on the app/site. As others have said, it's among the greatest online sports experiences going right now.

    Do I remember right, back in the day, you only really saw the back 9 (sorry, second 9) on TV?

    Yep, I had no idea what 2 and 8 were like until around the early 90's.

    Sam Bennett is just an amazing story. Amateur not only in red figures but possibly in one of the last groups on Saturday?

    I was thinking this yesterday. It is awesome.

    It’s still hard to believe Els, and especially Norman, never did. Between 86-96, Shark had to be a top 5 contender every year.

    The cut list is filled with interesting guys right now.

    Bam-Bam is going home-home. Rory won't even get his usual backdoor top-10 this year. No Waffle House celebration for Bubba. Danny Willett's green jacket, courtesy of Jordan Spieth's watery meltdown, is looking more and more faded. And Tiger's going to need serious help from the Augusta ghosts to play the weekend.

    Yes. Saturday and Sunday only had three-hour windows.

    It was a big deal when they finally expanded to 18-hole coverage on Sunday.

    Also, every final round broadcast is available on the Masters YouTube page.
