Congrats to Willett and his new son.

Indeed. Seems like a nice guy and certainly a great story. First Englishman since Faldo to win The Masters.

I had a buddy, a pretty good golfer play Augusta National. 111. Just saying.

Lucky for him there was no REAL off fairway rough that your typical golf courses have........

Correct me if I am wrong, but for Englishmen, it is Willett and Faldo, and that is it for Masters Champions.

Keats didn’t know about golf, but I think the title of his poem “La Belle Dame sans Merci” applies to it.

I don’t think anyone who’s ever picked up a golf club believes he “threw away the lead.”

Sure he screwed up. But throwing away the lead sounds like he did it intentionally.

I thought going into today that Dustin Johnson was the one to look out for.

I like Dustin Johnson. He played very well tee-to-green, but just couldn't buy a put today. I think he 4-putted one hole in fact.

I like Spieth. I think that he is a good kid and an awesome talent. I also think that a little humility right about now wouldn’t be the worst thing for him. We have all seen athletes who had things come a little too easily for them. Golf is hard. Jordan learned that today. He will be a better person for it, in the long run.

For a second there it looked like the other ball was going to go into the hole as well.
