Back in September I got Spieth 22/1 to win the Masters. Feeling good about it.

Playoff'd the Houston Open, but lost. He played great but it seemed like he was choking on the 18th (both times); still impressive.

Let's see how he does at the Masters this coming week. He seems to be on a roll recently. (one 1st and two 2nd's in the last 3 weeks, I think)

He's going to look great in that green jacket.

We're not worthy, you don't see too many Round 1 standing ovations

Had it backwards, he is going to look good being the one to put the green jacket on Tiger next year.

Still can't believe Under Armour snapped him up when they did. Disgusting business decision. I hope the guy who pushed it got a huge bonus.

Under Armour got Spieth and Steph Curry before they both hit it huge. Don't know how long their contracts are, but they are definitely cheap compared to their market value.

LOL. Spieth just signed a new contract within the last year for huge money. But yes, UA did get him early.

If anyone thinks Spieth isnt going to be a dominant player still in 3 years time, they have something wrong with them. He has been relevant ever since the US Junior Ams

You have to be feeling a lot better about it now.

Hoffman trying to put some pressure on him - cut his lead to 4.

Only flaw with Speef is he's got some comb over action going. Man up and buzz it short. Probably drop another shot on his scoring average.

He's obv ridiculously good, but does anyone else think his swing looks unspectacular? I can't remember anyone ever being this good and having such a mediocre looking swing - trevino not included.

Yeah totally but the great players usually have great looking swings too, can't think of many that don't.

Depends on how thin you define great. Ray Floyd and Jim Furyk both have loops in their swings. Arnie had an atrocious looking swing. Even Gary Player's wasn't all that pretty.

At the end of the day how pretty your swing is doesn't matter if you're square at impact.

Feeling stupendous about it. Also feeling pretty good that I booked a wire-to-wire (full rounds) win at 3-1. And crushing the DFS entries I made. Knocking on all the wood.
