This may be a dumb question but practice rounds are on the actual course right? Do they repair it at all between today and tomorrow?
Yes Augusta has an army of child laborers that go out there late at night and fill divots by hand. Course will look brand new come tomorrow.
It's actually pretty damn amazing when you watch them fix up the course for the next round. I haven't seen it too many times, but every now and then the prior days round won't be finished and they have to leave the pins where they were the day before. Once the last group goes through, it's like a damn army of lawnmowers riding down the fairway and then they have a member and officials go out and mark off where the pin will be the next day. Dude actually goes out there and putts to the general area and then they make a decision on the exact spot to cut the hole for the next round... it's a pretty cool thing to watch IMO. Kinda like seeing a bunch of rednecks running around sweeping the infield at Turner Field during the 7th inning stretch, but a lot more sophisticated.
TL/DR - Yeah, they practice on the actual course and it looks perfect the next morning.
I think my grandfather would legit murder someone if they wore that shit and were using his badges... I hope I don't have any relatives that dumb. Hell, they'd probably revoke all his badges for doing something obnoxious like that...rightfully so IMO
But, if my grandfather murders all my aunts, uncles, and cousins, and the Augusta National somehow lets him keep his badges, you'll be at the top of my invite list bruh.
They also use one of these to green up the paths trodden by the patrons.
Is it bad that I really hated the fact that he did something that I liked?
Same. It’s always been easy to pull against him and he was pretty much the last person I actively rooted against. But seeing this threesome with Rickie and Jordan has made me like him a little more.
Nicklaus's 15 year old grandson just hit an effing hole in one...
Jack told him he's got to get his dad to buy the drinks because he's underage lol

That was awesome.
Just gonna thrust this into the conversation. I too have hit a hole in one. Welcome to the club Gary
I love how he causally pops it back into place and then completes his round. That thing is going to swell up like a water balloon and hurt like hell tonight.
Surely he will play through even if he shredded it right? Gotta have a little pride about himself after pulling that stunt
Dude dislocated his ankle and bossed it back into place over the embarrassment of laying immobilized in the fairway of a 90 yd par 3. It's crazy he could even be walking today but I guess for the Masters maybe you can gut it out.
The perfect boogin' to me is for TIGER, Dufner, and Kizzire to go into a plyoff
Bogey Bogey? He's done. Golf sucks. Never watching again.

Finau is walking like nothing happened yesterday. Unbelievable.
A guy at work told me that thinks it was more of his foot falling out of his shoe and that his ankle was never actually dislocated. I find that hard to believe watching the video
Someone told me he did it in basketball and popped it back into place when the injury first happened.
Damn what a meltdown. Cluch putt for 13 and only tie the record.
