CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2007 Morgan Pressel became the first teenager ever to win a major, winning the Kraft Nabisco Championship after a terrible meltdown by Suzann Pettersen, who coughed up a four-shot lead with four to play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Queen Leelee Report post Posted April 2, 2007 Morgan Pressel, niece of Aaron Krickstein! Woo! So, I'm forced to like her. I hate the Masters because it gives me that old man racist vibe... but, I want to see good golf. And Adam Scott to win. Even though he won't, and Philly Dick will.

Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 I'll go on a not-so far limb and say a complete no-name win. I haven't decided who that will be, yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted April 2, 2007 I'll go with Jim Furyk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 Furyk never does particularly well at Augusta, for whatever reason. Only three top-10s in 10 appearances. Call me crazy, but I think I'm sticking with that Tiger fellow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianGuitarist 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2007 The Masters also coincides this year with a spring tradition of Barons and mine, The Mini-Masters. It's always played at the same course, always falls on Good Friday (this is the second time it's been during Masters week), we've begun implementing a few par 3 practise rounds mid-week, and of course, there's a green jacket (thrift-store bought) for the winner. This is the fifth playing, Baron's won 3 and tied with a friend of ours last year. We're not expecting Kelly Tilghman and Nick Faldo to host. And since I'm already off-topic, Baron, your created guy in Tiger 07 looks remarkably like you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2007 Its ashame that I can not create my swing like in Tiger 05, then it'll be perfectly identical. Maybe a video on my swing and youtube it and send it to Golf Central so they can analyze it and say its one of the weirdest swings they ever saw. On-topic: It'll be nice to see if Howell does well today, and of course I'll be pulling for Mike Weir up until hole number seven when he is at +4, then I'll stop caring for him.

Guest Queen Leelee Report post Posted April 3, 2007 You play golf every Easter there? It's like snowing there this weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2007 Hopefully not. Last year was great weather, and the year before was ruined because unexpectedly it snowed on Good Friday (not even weather reports were indicating it). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sure beats the haggis that Sandy Lyle served the year after he won. Of course, he would put fried chicken and ribs on the menu. He's trying to distract Tiger again.

Vern Gagne 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2007 I prefer the U.S. Open. The Masters is fun, but a little too snobbish. I just can't pick against Tiger. Potential feel-good story of the tourney.
