NewMexiKen isn’t sure why the commentators keep making such a deal out of Tiger Woods’ shot on 16 during the final round of the Masters yesterday. I’ve made that uphill, curve around and drop back into the hole shot dozens of times.
And I usually have to hit it through a minature windmill, too.
Interesting that after the high of seven birdies in a row, Tiger bogeyed two holes. Then after the high of making an impossible shot on 16, he also bogeyed the next two holes. Coincidence, or does Tiger let up a notch after reaching some emotional height?
Chris DiMarco showed more game than all the rest of the golfers out there. And a short game to die for.
The old guys who run the Masters should be ashamed of their biases and all, but they sure know how to keep the romance in a golf tournament. Limited TV coverage; better yet, limited commercial time away. Without the barrage of disconnected messages, the viewer can actually get caught up in the drama. Good commentary from CBS too, primarily focused on the play in front of them.
Reality TV at its best.
