Finally finished the Masters (well up to 18th hole for Rory) - I feel for Rose given he had the lead but he just doesn't have the stamina that Rory and Scottie have. It is the same with Young - that could have been Rory's best pairing. I'm not sure how he would go against Scottie. Meanwhile Day just fell away as usual - he couldn't match it with Rose on the front 9 but then his back 9 looked better than Rose's. All in all pretty disappointing Masters for the Aussies - particularly how Min Woo played

Worst event on tour . I hate the two man format

the only thing i was rooting for was the Fitzpatrick brothers to win so that Matt could get his card. don't think that's going to happen now.

but at least we have to 2026 PGA at Bandon Dunes starting tomorrow thru Monday.

I think the event could work better if it was at a tougher course. In four-ball these guys just absolutely tear it apart, and foursomes is easier than it should be. Conditions very benign.

I agree, this is my least favorite event of the year.

It's basically a by week that allows fringe PGA players a chance to earn some cash/points. It is what it is, players have a busy schedule coming up.

Doesn't Matt have his card he won last week or would his brother get a card

Shifty corrected my typo.

missed that and never realized he would get a players card. Looking pretty good now

i must say Matt Fitz looks totally ridiculous laying on every green like a worm when he reads the greens

10-finger grip, cross handed chipping, his new scotty esq foot work. Strange duck but it works.

whatever it takes to be #3 in the world

Fitz (the good one) is a god. Carried Alex on that back nine.

What a year he is having.

huh? Fitz was ass for much of the back 9

Alex had that clutch LW from back of the green and also the clutch tee shot on #17

credit to Matt for the bunker shot on #18. but no he didn't outperform his brother on the back 9

The problem with the event is that it is basically who gets hot on the best ball portion is basically who wins, especially if you are running it for two of the days. Probably should just do a different format every day. Maybe do something like both scores count towards the score on one of the days, maybe have a Stableford day, Shamble, Shamble but alt shot after the tee shot, etc. Only thing I want is that true alternate shot is on the last day. They have that part correct.

Congrats on Alex getting his card, and it was cool that Matt had to do it by making an insane bunker shot.

not sure if a bug or a feature

and watch out for future international cup matches with those two mind melding together

I'll admit I was caught up in the moment; I think Matt was better but they both had their share of poor shots. In particular the 2nd on 18 and the 2nd on 16 by Alex were not good. Matt also had to drain the 6 footer after said LW.

ShotLink had that putt at 2' 0"

commentator called that fairway wedge from Matt his worst wedge of the season

Alex was in no man's land. total jail. the wheels were coming off after the double on the previous hole

as the prez would say... it was a HUUUGE shot

I think Alex hit some clutch shots on that back 9. Many from the greenside. Looked like Matt just didn't quite haven't for the medium/long game.

See a lot of people complaining that Alex got his Tour card for winning this yesterday.

I see now liga, we were talking about different holes, you 13 me 15.

all good

in case you haven't seen the shot, it's at 5:56

Who tf is complaining about that? He had to make plenty of his own shots to win the tournament. It's not like you could select any random golfer and win with them. If anything, Alex should probably already have been provided an opportunity on Tour, but they prioritize KF players over DP, which is unfortunate because a lot of the Euros want to play over there.

I would prefer a system that allows the very best to auto get a card and then allow like a certain number of starts to others (tier them, so like one player gets 10, one gets 5), and if they can accumulate enough points in those starts, they can earn their card that way. Like Sudarshan was in because of being top 20 on the KFT, but if he wasn't that would be a good example of playing really well to earn status. And obviously he has played his way into signature events which most KFT grads won't.

Just a lot of people I've seen complaining about how he has got a card by winning a tournament with his brother. They also act like Matt carried him to victory, where in reality it was more the other way if you wanted to say someone 'carried' someone. Just internet BS mainly stuff for interactions. Obviously I don't and I think most don't agree with it.
