US Masters 2011

The Americans are not loving this. The commentary is continually about how hard it is to watch him unravel.

That said, when they are comparing him to Greg Norman, well it's pretty ominous.

Angel Cabrera owns a sock from Sneem.

Yerra come on Ankle.

He'll be wrote off in 2 hours.

Looks like he's wrote off now.

Terrible indeed, hope he shows the character to come back from it

This confirms that McIlroy is not the new Tiger Woods. Great golfer and still only 22 but I think it is clear to see that he just doesn't have the mental strength that Woods had at that age. Let's hope he doesnt end up another Sergio Garcia and never fulfil his potential.

If McIlroy does not win this, I hope Woods takes home another green jacket but his putting is killing him

Not a hope Mcilroy is gonna win this now

Or Woods... Too many others in the frame with holes to find birdies on. One of these Aussie lads looking good, Scott has always been talked up as a major champ in the waiting, maybe it's his day?

Woods shot his bolt? He's tied for the lead!

he's played all the par 5's, the co-leaders mostly have those to come - Woods is 30/1 to win now.

It's kinda hard to believe the scale of Mc Elroy's collapse.

From 4 shots up till about 8 down in a dozed holes.

Incredible.

Who was the last major winner with a broom-handle?

ONeill · April 10, 2011, 10:39:21 PM

McIlroy should go down in flames. Do the Happy Gilmore stuff.

That would be the answer to the question: What major winner with a normal putter subsequently switched to a broom-handle?

Langer.

Not you the golfer.....

From a green jacket to a straight jacket in about an hour.

Great news.......thanks for letting us know.

Now back to Augusta.

No Aussie has ever won the Masters...hard to believe. Another poster said that McIlroy didn't putt well enough to win the Masters. Proved right today. Anyway it's glorified crazy golf! Hoper Scott or KJ wins.
