Okay, then it seems to me you're arguing that he's a choker or the competition is in his head, not the course. -12 is like one of the 15 best Masters scores of all time.

He is 3 shots back on Saturday afternoon. How many mistakes has he made? Sure, he hasn't capitalized when he has had a few opportunities today but, again, the course is playing really difficult.
He is 25 and finished in the top 10 3 times. Let's not anoint him an Augusta choker just yet.

I certainly agree. And it's not like he's been playing lights out golf coming in and somehow falling apart now.
On que, he goes left on 10 again. I think the ball is still playable but he'll have no shot at the green.
Sure, but he's a pretty distant second in this two ball. He hasn't won a hole. He hasn't really got going. He's not taken advantage of any errors Spieth has made. And we expect and hope to see these two play together at the sharp end of many majors to come. For me, that's the concern and disappointment today.
Langer making a run is great. If he were to win, it'd be Jack Nicklaus circa 1986 but on a completely different level. 58 years old!!!
Oh well, all Rory has to do is drop a couple more and the cameras won't bother with him. The Fud.
That Jason Day-Dustin Johnson pairing has the potential to give the last group a scare tomorrow.
Langer is not just 1,000 years old, but he'd been using an anchored putting stroke for 20 years. Just crazy.
He's going to spend the afternoon reading The Great Gatsby aloud to the gallery
Today was brutal. Six rounds in the 80's and eleven more at 78 or 79. Four 77's, too. 21 out of 57 golfers were 77 or higher. Wow.
sounds like the wind will be gone tomorrow. it could be interesting if a Justin Rose or somebody in the +2/3 group goes out and posts a low number early.
Accessible pins today. I'm predicting a 65 for Rory post -5. He'll come up short but make it interesting.
Before the Masters started I threw 10 bucks on Langer for shits and giggles based on how he has played on the Champions Tour. He went off at 650-1. The fact he is even sniffing the lead is hilarious. I don't think he can win today, on a day where the pins will be accessible, but stranger things have happened. I'm guessing DJ makes a good run today.
Might make sense to hedge that bet a little with Spieth and Johnson if you have a few dollars.
