2015 Masters Thread (Tiger's playing)
- Thread starter Corsi
- Start date
I placed two bets today. One was Jason Day's round over/under. I took under 70.5 and he's on pace to shoot about 80.
The other is margin of victory over/under. It was 3.5. I took the over. I have no doubt that Spieth will fuck me by winning by 3 thus not making it interesting and not making me any money.

I guess you could say Ted Williams played against a short field too, but I don't hear many trying to unseat him as the greatest hitter ever. Probably want to curtail this argument though.johnmd20 said:
That might do it. Phil/Rose going to need to shoot 30/31 and hope Spieth some how screws up 13 and 15.
Since it's turning into a relatively drama-less Masters, maybe we should spark up that Jack vs. Tiger debate?
Short field or not, Jack was playing against some of the greatest all-time players during his time. Outside of Phil, Ernie, and maybe Vijay, I don't thing Tiger really had a formidable gauntlet of historical greats to slay. Most guys seemed to shrink when the going got tough, unlike a field with the likes of Arnold Palmer, Lee Trevino, Tom Watson, Gary Player, etc. in Jack's era. Throw in his dominance in the Majors, and I have to cast my vote for Nicklaus.

Haha, Spieth is going wayyyyy right on 11 from the straw. Making the 12th tee box spectators move. It's a smart play, avoid a meltdown.
To quickly jump in a couple arguments here, Jack over Eldrick as G O A T, he took on all comers Form early 60s to Mid 80s
Dog, big fan of Poulter's clothes, then again Ive got 2pairs of Loudmouth shorts, wore one last bash.
I don't get Nike humping the neon yellow it's been in everything Rory has worn this week

Smart play by Spieth. Leaves a decent shot at escaping with par, bogey being the worst possible outcome. Hero shot there brings the water in play.
