17 days to go.  Starting to plan my cooks now.

I planned mine six weeks in advance. Dry aged steaks.

Saw that post.  Can't wait to see and hear about the final product.

And a lifesaver is Google Chrome.  That way I can send the Masters.com feed to my TV and watch the tourney all day instead of waiting for the coverage to come on network TV.

Two weeks from today!!!

Does Tiger play?

Remains to be seen! Hope so!

I'm saying no.  If he does, he'll just embarrass himself and go home after 36.

YEMTrey

I don't think his ego lets him miss a major, especially the Masters.

I don't think his ego will let him play.

I vote no. Can't wait for it and the weather down here is turning into spring just in time. Mid 70s today.

Tiger was practicing at Augusta National this past weekend.

I think there will be a first time winner this year. Walker is hot, Speith playing well. Reed(although I don't like) has game. And Dustin Johnson is playing well now that he put down the coke or whatever happened.

Chubbs

I am pulling for Rory to complete the slam. I would like to see Rory, Kuchar, or Spieth. Anyone but Bubba Watson or Tiger. Those two complain more than the rest of the tour combined.

YEMTrey

I have no problem with any of those three winning it.  As long as it's someone who is playing well and deserves it.

Great looking room @YEMTrey! I'd like to see Rory win it, but would be happy with a number of others winning it too. Would love to see Couples give it a weekend run!

Everybody's personal opinion of Tiger aside, it simply makes for a better tournament if he's playing.

DoubleEgger

Amen to that @YEMTrey   Golf was a lot more interesting to watch when Tiger was running a dozen women on the side.

Couples is the new Jack at Augusta. He does alright early on and folks think this is "the year". Then Saturday comes around.....

You mean better when he is breaking 80 and not going home on Friday.

I saw both of them in line at customs at the ATL airport after the British two years ago. They acted like the didn't even know each other and he was a complete D Bag. I could easily see that divorce coming. On the other hand, I chatted with Stewart Cink for a few minutes in line. Super nice down to earth guy.

To the OP...forgot to mention...great room!!!

YEMTrey

Thanks.  Only one week away now! 

DoubleEgger

I assume you'll be starting up an Official Masters Thread @YEMTrey

YEMTrey

I sure can.  This one isn't being bumped anymore so I'll start a OT Thread on the tourney itself.

Tiger is playing. Announced today.
