We have teamed up with Callaway Golf for a prize that is limited, special and not available for purchase. We can’t show it off until Wednesday, but suffice it to say, you will want to win this one.

At hopefully will stop all the LIV haters blaming Koepka falling apart on only playing 54 holes?
[/QUOTE]
Koepka played so well but couldn’t close. Rahm played great.
[QUOTE=”ddec, post: 11432392, member: 782″]
Because I’m not playing that game. Most went backwards on holes 55-72. I would have some concerns but need to see more and we will.
[/QUOTE]
So what are the concerns?
[QUOTE=”JW Smoove, post: 11432417, member: 63219″]
And despite that thing on 18 … Another Paradym win.

So now the question everyone wants to know:
Will the 2024 masters dinner feature Paella?

and Jamon Iberico de Bellota…
The Masters is absolutely my favorite Major , always has been. And this did nothing to change that. Rahm was amazing and what Mickelson did was impressive as well.
Happy for Rahm. Great player and all good Spaniards seem like they should be masters winners
[QUOTE=”ddec, post: 11432442, member: 782″]
He’s going to be one that when he learns how to win at this level he could go on a nice run
[/QUOTE]
His style of play has made him my favorite to follow. He will figure it out
My tin foil hat thinks that the deep state visited Koepka in the middle of the night (Sunday morning) and said, “We can’t be having a LIV player winning the Masters. We need you to throw Sunday’s round. Thank you for your cooperation.” It is rigged, I’ll tell ya, rigged. ??

Masters is over. Now I’m depressed.

Relax, according to Gary Player, it is the worst major. 3 superior majors are still on the calendar!;)
Happy for Big John. Is he the favorite to win the 3 remaining majors?
Some serious skimming taking place. ??
Congrats Rahm
[QUOTE=”ddec, post: 11429913, member: 782″]
me too. There is no other golfer I’d rather watch play at this place.

Mr ddec, Phil is calling on line 1;)
Very happy for Thegala locking up an invite next year. Solid masters Sunday. Would have liked some more closing drama but it was a fun day.

Isn’t skimming allowed for major threads? Especially if you’re a muay thai champ and a lawyer?

Killer tapas as well I hope
Koepka says the group in front was brutally slow.
Such an understatement
The green jacket looks good on Rahm. But not white pants…glad he wore something else today.
Rahm.

It was less than a 5 hour round, right? I don’t know the rules, but should they have been put on the clock?
Just went back to see how many others had Rahm as the winner for the contest. Got to 5 on the first page and said screw it good luck guys haha

I don’t have any context to Brooksy’s comments, but Rahm was six strokes better so to me it sounds like an excuse.
Thank you to THP to keep the Masters going a bit longer. I am not ready for it to end. #thebestmajor

He’s been hot this year. It felt like a safe choice.
15 minutes from completion of this amazing first major of 2023 and we are already back to LIV vs PGA Tour.
Isn’t the entire goal to bring the top golfers together and celebrate this special event? We just did that, Jon Rahm won and we get to look forward to more in the future.
I am ALL for these dudes roasting slow play.
Now it’s up to the tours to crack down on it. Which they will do twenty minutes from never.

It wasn’t in the context. He congratulated Rahm and said to Amanda he didn’t have it today. The pace was horrid though.

Mine flipped to the Golf Channel when the broadcast ended. I’m thinking she wants a kitten. ?
It kinda sucks that the only charge was by Michelson & Spieth and they started the day too far back.
Was Brooks the only LIV guy that didn’t wear a LIV team logo?

He hasn’t worn them in LIV events either. His deal with Nike removes that chance
Oddly enough, I loved Brooks press conference. Called out slow play. Didn’t bite on the LIV v PGAT questions. Said Masters is best tourney in the world. And in the end, its still all about the majors for him.

Your loss
This was a great week. This thread made the masters that much better. The banter, the funny comments, a little bit of argument, all great.
plus a great event the offered everything you could want from it. Best Masters in years.
thanks!

Way to go Rahm. What a beast. Cool to see Phil get a backdoor 2nd. My question: Is Rahm who we thought Rory was?
I hate it for Brooks. Seems like he would get it going only to have to wait. Tough to get going or momentum when you’re waiting.
I didn’t get to see any of the 4th round. Sounded like once Rahm got the lead it was over.
I did see Phil speak just a few minutes ago. He took the high road or at least it seemed to me.
X-Man, Cantlay, Cameron Young, Hovland
Who gets a major win first?
