I attended all 4 days the 1967 Masters.

You saw some greats...Sam Snead, Ben Hogan: both age 54 tied for 10th.

 

Winner's (Gay Brewer think he was 45 YO, he lost in a playoff to Nicklaus the year before) check: $20,000, this year: $2,070,000.

 

The closest I've ever gotten is EA Sports.

 

 

... and just to note, while we wandered all over especially during the early rounds, our main spot for our small group of kids was behind the green on the par 3 16th

Any local viewing options?

 

I can't find anything via TrueVisions, AIS Play.

 

Yes, I know there are other more ad hoc streaming options.

 

There may end up being some here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Masters_2022/

I was told by an Augusta member how the greens become faster every day. Scores on the Wednesday warmup round mean nothing, the greens are standard stimp before the Masters.

 

Every night during the tournament itself, the ground staff spread dry sand on every green. The sand is then vacuumed up after drying out the grass, I forget how long he said they leave the sand there. The greens are then cut every morning before play starts. By the time they get to Sunday, they are like greased lightning.

 

It's why one almost never sees anyone fix a pitch mark at Augusta, the greens are too hard. OTOH, they are true because they don't get bumpy like a soft green would.

 

IME it's the guy who has the hottest putter who usually dons the green jacket. I still remember Mike Weir's win in 2003, he had nerves of steel on the final day with a succession of 6 foot putts.

Just coming up on T-Time.  Watching it live on USTVGO.TV, Golf Channel.

Naw it's just misting but the wind is starting to pick up however which should dry out the fairways and the weather is supposed to get warm today  They are also predicting it to be cool and windy for Friday and Saturday with The final day of Sunday being great weather.

Red Bull gives you wiings (it doesn't)

USTVGo looks OK, on a phone, tablet or small PC screen

 

Needs a VPN - Any VPN works; I use Nord.

 

Can cast, from a Chrome Browser to a TV, but video quality is not great, 360p, in full screen (65")?

Watching this morning groups now on holes 4, 5 and 6, and everyone is so far having a horrible morning on these holes....greens are very fast...

There are two golf courses in the world that have greens this fast. Augusta, and Royal Melbourne.

At Augusta, the speed of the greens is created by a process I described in an earlier post. At Royal Melbourne, it is natural.

Having said that, hard, fast greens are also true. It's a matter of getting the right line to the hole, the ball will drop if the player picks the break and speed correctly.

Yes sir, and the majority of golfers on the second day had some pretty sad luck on the greens.

On BBC Radio 5 Live they have a commentary on this golf.............and I have just painted a couple of walls in my lounge!   LOL

Oakmont? Shinnecock Hills? Winged Foot?

 

 

Stewart Cink solves the problem...

I'd agree on Oakmont, Sam Snead once said it was like trying to putt down a marble staircase. Never played on Shinnecock Hills or Winged Foot.

When amateurs like me play on such courses, the stimp-meter readings are normal.

 

You think that's quick? I'll show you quick.

....and the longest televised putt ever recorded..........Terry Wogan....555

IMO this one by Nicklaus would be close.....

Yet I like this one by Tiger a longer than long Lag putt
