USA Today is carrying a live blog here. Not sure if that link will be the same on day 2, but a link will be there from the main sports page.

I'm glad you posted that, because I've been trying to load what currently passes for ESPN's live blog for the last ten minutes and getting absolutely nowhere. I can't even get their leaderboard to come up. The 'Golfcast' link won't readily copy, but I'll put the leaderboard one here just in case anyone wants to try their luck.http://www.masters.com/en_US/scores/index.html?promo=ESPN Gee. Wonder what's happening out there. *tries to load ISAT page* *gets nowhere* I'm starting to suspect Firefox.

2. "They're just generous that way." |
This is the largest Masters field in several decades: ninety-nine players are going to be chasing a small white ball to places it was never meant to go. And while a couple of those extra spots can be credited to the added amateurs, most of them can be laid at the feet of Phil and Tiger. Y'see, winning a PGA tour event punches an automatic ticket to the soonest Augusta meet. Those two are generally good for multiple wins each in every season. Last year? Not quite. And that threw the doors open to a lot of single-time champions, every one of whom got their very own ticket with optional bed in a very crowded Crow's Nest. Come one, come all, and leave anything faintly resembling an electronic device at home because in-field use of social media will be punished by the finest laws 1859 had to offer. You really can't tell the players without a scorecard. Here's hoping they all know how to sign one.

4. "RE: One to watch." |
The top Japanese star? He'll have plenty of endorsements to keep him going for a while in terms of day-to-day expenses. I applaud his intention to donate every penny of his 2011 tournament earnings, it shows a big heart of his and I hope he wins more tournaments than anyone else this year.

I'm wishing him lots of luck, but I'm glad he has another source of income to fall back on. For a lot of golfers, this wouldn't be a mission of mercy so much as one of bankruptcy. Flights, hotels, day to day travel expenses, car rentals, paying your caddie who cannot donate his entire salary... Golf isn't one of the cheaper sports to begin with, and the professional level means putting a lot of your salary back just to reach the next course.

8. "RE: The 2011 Masters." |
I finally got ESPN's 'Golfcast' to load. It let me read updates for thirty seconds and then paused to load a commercial.*lets that sink in* We apparently have a new rule this year: if a player does something that would lead to a penalty and doesn't call it on himself -- but the TV people spot it and call it in -- the penalty will be enforced, but the player will not be disqualified for signing an incorrect scorecard. Your score gets changed: that's it. That rule should probably be named after someone. Any suggestions? I can think of a leading candidate...

9. "RE: The 2011 Masters." |
LAST EDITED ON 04-07-11 AT 03:32 PM (EST)Luke Donald will be donating $5,000 per birdie. (Presumably his.) I'm sure the Men Of The Masters would be willing to donate if they knew about what happened, but most of them are still working on recognizing Florida. ETA: As it turns out, Augusta National has said they'll be sending something, but not how much. And not only is Ryo donating all his tour earnings, but he's kicking in $1200 for every birdie he hits whether he makes the cut or not. (He's -1 through 16.) Current leader in the clubhouse: Roy McIrloy with a 65, which historically puts him on pace to shoot 82 tomorrow.

14. "RE: Boom again, three-way tie" |
*glances at leaderboard* Ye gawds, is that a cluster. (Or at least something beginning with 'cluster'.) I won't predict a winner, but I'll definitely predict a TAR delay.

17. "Clubhouse leader at this point" |
Tiger Woods -10, tied for 2nd on the course with about 4-5 others... Current leader just had a lousy 2nd shot at 15, and his 3rd wasn't much better, leaving a VERY long 2-putt to keep his current lead...

24. "3rd person above the cluster now" |
Jason Day birdies at 17, now at -11 as Adam Scott surveys his par putt... Which he makes to stay at -12, tied for the lead.

He won @12 minutes to 7 pm. They better have a bunch of filler to make sure TAR starts 30 minutes or more late. Otherwise they won't get the bonus.

We will get a delay, but based on how these things go I really think the longer the delay the bigger the bonus. If you get it late enough so you are over an hour late and they don't even show the last hour of primetime...whoo boy, you could out spend Charlie Sheen on a bender and still have money left over to put a couple of kids through college.
