DeChambeau is off to an awesome start! 

The dude is as consistent so far as anyone. Go DeChambeau!

Rickie finally finished the 13th with eight strokes. Ouch.

[Baddar]

Rickie is 7 over.

When Spieth is on, he's just unreal.

What kind of odds did you get for Phil?

18/1.

[Meacon Keaton]

My boss was sitting in my office yesterday and he was like, "So can you do this for me tomorrow; I'm taking the day off." 

And I was like, "Yeah, I was thinking of taking Friday off too, but decided against it. I was just going to sit around and watch the Masters."

And he said, "That's exactly why I'm taking off."

And then we spent a half-hour chatting about golf and his bets on the tournament and now I think he likes me even more than he already did. Bonus. 

[Baddar]

Looks like they've toughened this right up today.

[Meacon Keaton]

Thankfully. Maybe Spieth will go into Sunday with only a six stroke lead instead of a dozen.

[Baddar]

Not a massive Rory fan, but thank god the gap is closing. 

[Meacon Keaton]

Rough day at work means I'm just sitting (well lying down) to watch this. Great to see Tom Watson getting such an awesome reaction at each hole. A true legend. And DeChambeau at -3 on the 13th! Woohoo! That's awesome. #meaconislikefivehoursbehind

[Baddar]

I went to bed before Spieth and DeChambeau went down 18

Spoiler

Ouch. A great round spoiled with a 7 for DeChambeau. On the flip side he made a mockery of Amen corner by scoring birdies so it's evened itself out.

Should be a very interesting Saturday. I feared for the tournament when Spieth moved to -7 with the competition way back.

 

[Meacon Keaton]

Yeah. Boo-urns.

[Baddar]

I think the organisers will love the fact that Spieth and Rory can be paired together in round 3. Should be a fun watch. I imagine DeChambeau will get plenty of coverage too. I haven't seen who he's been paired with just yet.

Ok, it's Lowry.

[Meacon Keaton]

What the shit, Zach Johnson?! Dude shot +8 today to miss the cut after being even after two days. Geez louise.

[Baddar]

I know. I didn't look at where the problems occured but pretty much everyone struggled at some point yesterday. The wind was crazy and I think it's meant to be similar today.

Jordan Spieth-Smylie Kaufman final pairing on Sunday.

Well I think we all had half of that right in our predictions.

Also, how many times does Nantz remind us of Langer's age tomorrow?

HE WON THE MASTERS BEFORE JORDAN SPIETH WAS EVEN BORN, MAGGLE!!!

[gunnar hendershow]

Nantz is probably practicing the line "Augusta eyes are smiling at Kaufman" as we speak as well.

[Baddar]

I missed the Spieth mistakes at 17 and 18 because I fell asleep. :/

I'm hoping that the conditions are a little better today. There's plenty of players within a few shots so it'd be great if they could go out and make a score to make it really tight at the top.

[Noah]

If @damshowkeeps this up, I think it's only fair he gets mentioned by name in the thread title.

3rd billing behind the original gulf crew obviously.

[Meacon Keaton]

I gave him semi-top billing and a tagging!
