2016 Masters Golf Pool
Augusta National GC,
Augusta, Georgia
April 7-10, 2016
I'm struggling to find a theme for this golf season, which despite the
PGA Tour scheduler's attempts, for me always begins in Hawaii. An effort
seems to be in play to nominate a "big three", presumably Speith, Rory
and Day. Although #1 Speith has been running hot-and-cold; Rory's only
shown glimpses of his past swagger; and Rickie want's in as well.
Bubba has asserted himself early,though; Phil is still hanging in
there; and DJ is close but can't seem to close. Toss in the usual crop
of rookies and it's been a real mixed bag. Perhaps anointing the first
major championship of 2016 will clarify things.
Welcome to spring '16. Looking forward to the pines and azaleas from
Augusta, and hopefully some exciting drama as well. The pool is up! Get
your picks in now! Fore!
Congrats to Danny Willet, Masters Champ!
Congrats to Ron Nezan, and Team nflr's 2, Pool Champ!
Latest Pool News: 2016-04-10 17:39:35Well, Norman-esque. While the rest of us awarded Jordan the green jacket after that
putt on 9, Dan Jenkins reminded us that he had yet to play a water hole at AN. Full marks to Jordan making a push after the debacle
on 12, with birdies and 13 and 15 and a great tee ball on 16.
I should also congratulate the winner, Danny Willet. Early in the broadcast I was wondering how he made it to 12th in the world.
Now we know. Solid play coming in with the lead, and a great final round 67.
To the pool, and Master rooks take the top two spots! Congrats to Ron Nezan and his team nflr's 2 on the pool win at a team score
of 3 over par. Ron had Danny, Lee, and DJ as his leading players. Mark Smith's team, Gimmie Par, takes second. Mark also had Danny,
DJ, and Casey on his team. Taking third, is Peter Tom's team, Dick's Duffers. Nice work, Peter!
Hope everyone enjoyed the pool. Cheers!
