Looks like he swapped out the Ping blackout grip for old version of the Lamkin cord grip. That's interesting.
And he just put a ball a foot away off the tee on 16.
I was just thinking that. Behind the tee on 12, and 16 are the two most dramatic differences.
Lee Westwood in lead. I've seen this movie before.
That said, I am amazed Westwood even qualified for the Masters.

My legs would be shaking
It's the best
Same. I think I'll have it on, but muted
He's still top 50 in the world. Won an Euro event in Abu Dhabi early in the year to get back inside and get an invite. Has had a string of nice finishes on the Euro tour too since the restart. He will not win but he can still play.
I looked it up. Westwood finished 42nd on the World Golf Rankings at the end of 2019 and finished in the Top 4 in last year's Open Championship. Either would have gotten him in the Masters. He's done far better than I would have guessed.
On the Masters Wikipedia page, you can see how every golfer qualified. It's very cool. Brooks Koepka qualified for the Masters in 10 different ways. Nobody is close, Cantlay, Woodland, and DJ qualified 6 different ways.
edit - I read it wrong, Westwood is currently in the top 50, as @cshea said. He didn't qualify via the 2019 list.
Bryson is going to hit all the balls Augusta National has at their range tonight after his round. Do they have floodlights?
It would be awesome if he just dosed 500ccs of Prednisolone and literally just hit through the night and until his tee time tomorrow. No sleep, just hulk smash.

It's a picture, the text is useless without it. My opinion: Sandy Lyle working with the freshest drip in golf history.

I watch a lot of Mark Crossfield youtube and follow Westwood on social media. I would love for him to win. Seems like a great guy.
It seems like the hillbillies who run that club require high levels of fawning smarm out of their broadcasters, or they're out.
There are many ways to describe the membership at Augusta that are devastating (and devastatingly accurate) but "hillbillies" is not one of them.
I don't have sound but i saw the graphic a while back. All i know is the female is Michelle Wie
edit: i should say, i have sound, but no commentary on masters.com
That may be the best drive he's hit period in the past 18 months.
Edit: Followed by a truly awful shot to the green. And so it goes.

Ahh. I have commentary. Wie makes sense in that its a commentator I've never heard before.
Yeah I've never see anyone do that since they lengthened it. Frankie had 3 wood in the final round last year.
and he fucked his chance big time
Golf in general has been so much better without the fans, one sport that can honestly say that. As you said none of the idiotic, nonsensical yelling and you can see the courses better with none of the fans or grandstands to hold them. I'll miss this when fans, or patrons in this weekend's case are back.
It was the default for me. I"m watching featured groups w sound and no commentary
Bryson is shit with a wedge. But shit with a wedge is still better than hitting mid and long irons in.
It was mine as well earlier today. More recently, when I opened it up, there was an "unmute button" in the upper left for a few seconds. That gave me voices.
Looks like the greens may be drying out just a bit. starting to notice (a little) less hold on approach shots.
Not sure if its the weather or the time of year, but it seems like there's a little less break in these greens today. I've seen a lot of guys over-read putts so far.
Until He's out of contention, I am rooting for Larry Mize. I love it when the old guys are competitive with the younger guys.
