He'll go on a run on the weekend and end up with a top 10 or something somehow, which always tends to happen at the Masters, where you look at a guy on Friday, and he seems like he's out of it, and by the weekend, other guys fade, and he's kind of backdoor top 10s or top 15s, but...

it's baffling to me how a guy with that much talent and on a week-to-week basis playing really well just comes and can't do anything here.

I think there's still a pretty good chance in one of the four majors this year that he'll find a way into the hunt and figure this stuff out, but right now it's been a kind of two-year abyss.

After what happened last year.

i think we fascinating if somehow look reads probably a factor he's playing great golf is one place in dp world tour is always awesome here he was third last year under the radar uh... but if it was somehow rose and rory on sunday i wonder if the sentiment would lead lean towards rose

Where, you know, last year it was all Rory.

Everybody's been cheering for Rory for the last decade.

But now Rose has three kind of heartbreaking second place finishes in here.

I think he's won a lot of fans the last few years.

I mean, the guy's in his 40s and he's ridiculously good still.

And ridiculously good at Augusta National.

I think that would be really fascinating just to hear the galleries out here.

And probably be split halfway.

But I think there would be a lot of people cheering for Justin Rose if he was in the hunt on Sunday.

I think so, and I think it will be Saturday and Sunday.

The one thing about perfect weather is Augusta has full control over the golf course, and they're not like the USGAO where we've seen those US Opens on Sunday where it's gotten dried up and burnt out and gets a bit out of hand.

I don't think they'll ever let that happen here.

They watered overnight last night to make sure it didn't get a little bit...

goofy today but I think it will get a little harder and faster on Saturday and Sunday and I'm sure they'd love a winner around seven under or something like that which I think is a possibility if you look at the scores right now so they I couldn't be more perfect I don't think we can overstate Bob's been coming here longer than I have but I think this he said this is the best weather masters ever this is my 15th it's by far the best you mentioned the rain it's rained 14 straight years here

on one of the days.
