I wouldn’t be unhappy at all if Tiger wins...

I wouldn’t be unhappy at all if Rory misses the cut...

Can’t explain either to be honest

Great to see Tiger playing like his old self. Don’t like the guy (spitting, swearing, petulant etc) but nevertheless great to see he’s come back in such style. And at 43 too!

I bet he was frustrated after yesterday. He could have easily been 4 shots better off. If he plays the weekend as well and has a good putting day it could be fun to watch the kids try and keep up.

I shot a lovely level par round a 9 hole par course on Thursday. It was quite windy and I only had a 9 iron, dual wedge and putter. The greens were challenging to say the least.

I was playing with my 8 year old and gave him 3 shots a hole. He beat me. A handicap review is needed I think.

I really hope Tiger pulls this off. An equal or even better achievement than Jack Nicklaus in 1986?

Rory is looking out of sorts. Can’t see him pulling it out of the bag now. Tiger is looking good but I don’t think he will win unfortunately.

Oh come on then, who do you predict to be the winner?

I’m hoping for Tiger and Poulter to continue and pair up for the finale, and to be honest I’d be happy for either to grasp the trophy.

I wouldn’t like to say. :-)

Love to see tiger win and he’s just pulled some epic shots

The best thing about the Masters, is the lack of arsepieces shouting 'In the hole'

It does make you wonder what is written in the small print on the back of the ticket!

I’m guessing by the way but assume they are warned somehow?

[thebraketester]

There are a few rules...and its basically a "get out" if you are seen breaking them

[Digger]

Why do we never hear . . . “Get out of the hole”

[Doofus]

How do you say Schauffele's name? Is it 'Shuffler'?

[Digger]

Schau as in Shower... Ffele as in flay. I think

Blimey. I never would have got that.

Thanks

Are they all wearing pink for charity today or something?

Extraordinary putting by Tiger, so pleased to see him in the running and would be great for the modern game of golf if he won.

Faldo picked Adam Scott..... not a bad choice.

I'm hoping Molinari.

So did i at 40/1

My other two picks at 60/1 and 80/1 are also in the running!

My 4th pick at 125/1 needs to have the round of his life to get placed

All each way

• fingers crossed*

Heavy rain threat might spoil this yet....
