Bryson DeChambeau Nearly Aces 16, Chips in on 17 and Almost Dunks an Eagle on 18

  • After posting a decent score of 35 on the front, which included 3 birdies and 2 bogeys, Bryson birdied 6 of his last 7 holes to finish with a 66 and a share of the 18-Hole lead
  • With 3 victories in 2018 and 1 already in 2019, Bryson is quickly becoming one of the more consistent players on tour
  • His best finish at Augusta National was in 2016, when he finished T-21st. In 2018, he finished T-38th.

Koepka’s Three Consecutive Birdies Place Him Firmly in Contention

  • The reigning US Open & PGA Champion put together the most solid round of the day. A bogey-free 66 puts Koepka in position to win his 3 of the last 4 majors. Koepka’s scrambling ability was on display all day.
  • He managed to scramble and save par or better on 100% of his chances.
  • Currently 4th in the OWGR, Koepka could soon find himself just an Open Championship away from the career grand slam with a win this week at The Masters.
    • Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Ben Hogan, Gene Sarazen and Gary Player are the only others to do so in the modern era.

Tiger’s Putt at 14 Goes the Distance

  • This birdie putt put Tiger into a share of lead at the time and he ended up finishing at -2 (70).
  • He posted a first round 70 in 3 of his 4 Masters wins, so he is right where he needs to be.
  • It’s no surprise that Tiger’s best putt of the day came at 14. Here’s why:
    • Tiger Woods has won 14 Major Championships to date.
    • He last won at Augusta National 14-years ago.
    • This Masters Sunday is April 14th.
    • His odds to win The Masters? You guessed it… 14/1

Golf is a game of inches... Exhibit B.#themasters @PhilMickelson pic.twitter.com/2WyYK4EoD7

Phil Mickelson Reminds Patrons Golf Is a Game of Inches

  • Coming into the tournament with 40-1 odds or basically an afterthought when choosing a winner, Phil posted an impressive round of 67 which included ending his round at -5 in his last 7 holes.
  • When Lefty gets on a scoring streak, there are few people in the world who can pile on the birdies like him.
  • Perhaps a Sunday showdown between Woods and Mickelson is in store. Let’s just hope it’s more entertaining than the Tiger vs. Phil production we paid for last November.

Kiradech Aphibarnrat Goes -4 with Clutch Finish Down the Stretch

  • After being unable to make a birdie in his first 12 holes, Kiradech took advantage of the most scoreable part of the golf course going -4 on Holes 13-16. He finished with a 69 and in a tie for 6th.
  • At the time of this post, he has already finished his second-round as he was one of the first groups to tee of today.
    • He managed to shoot an even-par 72, with 3 birdies on the day.
    • He goes into the weekend at 3-under par for the tournament.
