Quote of the day
"Wow, this is a long shot!" -- Tom Watson, after shooting an opening 67 in the Masters Daily blurb
Tough break if you had LeBron on your roster last night. After reports earlier in the day that he would play in Chicago, he ended up in street clothes.

The low scores at The Masters may have implications for the cut. At the Masters, the threshold is the top 44 plus ties, plus anyone within 10 strokes of the leader. With this many golfers shooting a low opening round, it’s likely that someone will post a low total through two rounds.
