Been a great tournament so far, just watching the beginning of day 3.
Patrick Reed is in unbelievable form yesterday, and last pairing out for the final round is Patrick & Rory.
We’re obviously rooting for Rory, the back 9 on Sunday is going to be something else...

What made me post this ?
Just remembering that this day last year I watched the final round of the masters aboard the Oscar Wilde, wish I was on that sailing tonight to escape this dire weather.

The sun is shining in the sunny south east. First sign of spring. It’s been a long winter

The bar I was in last night forced me to watch the golf, it was on 5 TV's in the one bar. What a stupid game, after you learn how to hit the ball most of it is pure luck.

Nay, cricket is a worse game to watch.

Great to hear from you Paddy,
Yes, see the Costas weather on the phone daily....... been poor alright.

McIlroy is “crapping in the nest” ! So to speak.... but Jordan Speith on fire with birdie after birdie......
Enjoying this with a few beers.

Enjoy the trip Paddy ..... we’ll meet up for that beer when we see you over the summer (is ‘Summer & Ireland’ to be used in the same sentence) !!

Sad for Rory, but the best man won this year.

Yes agreed, Rory just didn’t get going in the final round, his work on the green was sadly lacking.
Reed held up well with the pressure from Speith and Fowler on the back 9, not as exciting as previous masters but still very good.
