At least we got a bit of drama, albeit only 5 minutes worth before Xander dunked his... Matsuyama won this yesterday charging ahead in soft conditions after the rain delay when so many others failed to take advantage.

He hit that last putt a little faster than I would have

Another Masters tradition.
I start the "what is Nantz line for winning putt?" conversation.
It's early, but I'm going with..."A first for Japan and a win for Matsuyama"
You were close
If I had a dollar for every golfer I've bet on in the past year that finished in second I'd have about eight bucks. Sigh.
Good on Matsuyama
Blowfish at next year's champions dinner?
Yikes! My stomach would have been in my throat. I guess keeping your cool on a 10 inch tap in is part of what makes these guys so good.Fore Left! said:

Zalatoris with a 6th and a 2nd in his first 2 majors as a pro. Really something
The Masters is over
Now we have to wait an actual year
"So...how does it feel to blow it"
And he still doesn't have his membership card, right?? He clearly deserves it.Fore Left! said:

He has a 2nd and 3rd in last 3 masters. He'll be fine.
"I'm sure that won't make a bit of difference for those of you who enjoy a baseless rage over the decisions of a few teenagers."
Classy interview by Xander. Hard to say he choked if he felt he hit it flush. Made a good point about how he'd have played 16 different if he wasn't behind.
Great tournament.
Not the most exciting Sunday but loved seeing the course play tough throughout.

So Nantz. He needed extra time for that one

Close enough

I'm sure it'd never be allowed but it would be pretty cool if CBS turned the final putt live over to the Japanese broadcasting crew.
Major whiff by CBS production crew.

Late but close
EDIT: Beat me to it
Happy for Hideki. That was a load of pressure and expectations he was carrying around today. More than just the normal massive amount
One of the hardest things about golf.
Sometimes you make a bad decision.
Sometimes you make a good decision and execute it poorly.
Sometimes you make a good decision and execute it well and it still ends poorly.
Always liked Xander. Seems like he's got a great mindset.

No way of knowing that. They may have been refused rights to that. Or asked to compensate. I am certain they would have played it if they could.
A lot goes into sharing broadcast/video rights. Especially in real time.
"I'm sure that won't make a bit of difference for those of you who enjoy a baseless rage over the decisions of a few teenagers."
Matsuyama is under so much pressure from back home. Happy he was able to hang on even though I was rooting for Xander to win it.
Totally agree and I like him a lot as well even if his Dad thinks he sucks.
I thought it was a cool camera shot of his caddie putting the flag stick back in the hole and giving a little head bow. Who knows what it means but I took it as a sign of respect for the course. It is clearly hallowed ground in the golf world. I just that it was good work by the camera crew.
Sort of disagree. I know it wasn't exciting as far as scoring goes, but with Matsuyama sort of coming back to the field, with the fight for the top 5, I was pretty glued to the tv.
Better than waiting April 2019 to November 2020
Good for Hideki and Japan

Xander did call Hideki "robot-like" in his post round interview. Pretty sure that's racist.
Might want to get JTs publicist on speed dial.
Yeah I edited my post didn't want to drag that into the golf board
