I know how lotsa folk feel about the Masters golf tournament, but I just gotta say RORY IS KICKING ASS!!!!!

He 12 under par the next closest contender??? 6 under!!!!! Rory finally won LAST year and I was so happy for him……but today in the 2nd round he had 9, COUNT EM, 9 birdies. I’m sure he is just playing because he loves this course, and is at ease because he already did win the Masters. He looks so calm and relaxed and I know there’s still a lot of golf left, 2 days, but he’s looking great. 💚 ☘️ 🍀

....your happiness. However, right now, there are people being abused, suffering, and dying all over the world at the hands of sadistic, white males, with bucket loads of money and evil thoughts in their minds.

5. Not Today

I watched nearly all of it.
He was blocking the driver, pulling wedges, and not controlling spin.
He also wasn't hitting putts with the right pace.
Shot a +1 because nearly everything was off-kilter today.
My guess is he'll be on the range an hour tonight, watching video for an hour and will be at the course early tomorrow.
He looked lost like a club player who shoots 6 to 10 over par, but then shoots an 86 one day.
(Meaning like me)
Just couldn't stop the bleeding.

Just wish Rory could feel like he did the first round and really even the second round. He’s now back to hoping and wishing he can finish 1st. He just has to relax, breath and KNOW he can do this. Love ya Rory. RELAX, BREATHE AND KICK ASS LIKE YA DID IN ROUNDS 1 and 2. Ya can do it Rory. 💚 ☘️ 🍀

7. Scheffler Shot 7 Under

And lipped out 2 other birdies!
I don't have a rooting favorite.
I'm happy that Reed, DeChambeau, D Johnson, Koepka, & Rahm are out of it or have no chance.
I want to see the LIV defectors fail for the rest of their careers.
Slimy, zero ethics slimeballs accepting blood stained money.

Don’t want Scheffler to win this tho either……just something about him I don’t like. He’s a gawd as a golfer, just don’t like him, and I really don’t know why. COME ON RORY. 💚 ☘️ 🍀

I'm really fatigued hearing about his baby making & his faith.
Those are more important than golf, which is the very thing that assumes his family will never know want.
Shut up about your faith. Tell tye commentators to leave your family out of it.
Focus yourself on golf, Scottie.
Work for you?
I know I'm sick of that storyline.
