I don’t propose covering the Masters in any great detail as it will be done better and in more depth elsewhere - besides the sports writers get paid for doing it, and I don’t :-(  I enjoy the headlines and the real points of interest but sometimes the detail can become mind numbingly dull.

Observations from day 1 - Tiger looks a little ‘off colour’ and the Brits (erm, well English) might actually mount a challenge, of sorts. We’ve seen Tiger start slow in the past and get better as the competition progresses, so we shouldn’t read too much into that. The highlight of the day was Ian Poulter and his hole-in-one on the 16th.  After the sh1t he’s been through recently I was genuinely pleased for him, so let’s hope he can carry that form through.

Justin Rose looks composed and seems to have benefited from last year’s experience.  He’s giving the impression of a serious contender and it will be interesting to see if he can maintain that level of consistency once the onslaught starts.

Lastly, I was pleased to see Sandy Lyle turn back the clock.  Twenty years to the day that he donned the Green Jacket, Lyle finished one under par.  It was a great excuse to roll back the years and see the recordings of his Masters’ win (and those sweaty armpits!)

Speaking of veterans Tim McDonald makes a stinging attack on Gary Player - ouch!….and I thought he was untouchable! (Player, not McDonald, that is).

Let’s see what day 2 holds.
