    I'm glad to see Rahm win and get to multiple majors because I was tiring of what a "great" player he was with one major. Of course never forget that Lee Janzen (Stroh's Beer!! IIRC) has as many majors as Norman.

    Or someone at Augusta "suggested" they don't. The ghosts of Cronkite and Murrow weep.

    I'd also be willing to bet Nantz was fed the CW line and got it approved beforehand

    Spieth has been lurking around the hen house a bit this year without busting through. Perhaps him at the PGA?

    Andrew Catalon? Nantz has spoken of wanting to do 50 Masters, which puts him through 2035. But then amended it to one more year because 2036 will be the 100th Masters. He's not going anywhere.

    Congrats to Rahm. Great player. Watched only the finish of the third round this morning (Easter, family), but he won this on the second round restart Saturday morning by slogging through the rain, cold and rain by not letting him get too far away from Brooks.

    I’m imagining Augusta National officials calling their private security forces to detain Kevin Harlan after he yelled, “Rahm drives it down the middle WITH NO REGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE!”

    That 72-hole slam doesn't work after what Phil and Reed did. Great players are great players and playing LIV won't change that. The massive problem for LIV remains the ranking points. About a dozen guys got into this field by last year's OWGR and none of those will next year unless they have a high major finish, maybe two.

    The green jackets love that shit. Nantz knows the assignment.

    Watching the replay, why don't they just have Nantz call every damn shot?

    By my count, he was on the call for seven of the 18 holes.

    Uncle Verne had his traditional No. 6 and 16, but let the other three have a crack at things.

    A few observations.
    The Bennett kid is a dead ringer for Dabo.
    Hovland isn’t exactly getting around there at a Trevino clip, but Cantlay is downright glacial.
    Koepka and Rahm get around pretty good, and Koepka even said that they were taking forever.
    Rory will never get a Green Jacket.

    My four-year old thought Raffi was leading the Masters.
