Sad birdie try at 18 by Willet

"Slowpoke". That's good.

Willett can relax now. Absent a pitch-in by Spieth, game over.

"sad bogey at seventeen" and it's over. Danny Willett is the 2016 Masters champ.

Spieth made the turn at 7 under with a 5 shot lead. Wonder if he saw that and decided to play the back nine safe--he even had 2 strokes to work with, turns out--and that threw off his game.

That was brutal. Gonna be interesting to see how he bounces back.

Yep. He looked like he was ready to burst into tears walking up to 18.

_________________

Faldo made a good point how Spieth was missing his irons all day on the front 9; but the shots were still playable and often in "lucky" spots; where he could not only recover but also score off of mis-hits.

When the water hazards came into play on the back 9, Spieth's mis-hits weren't salvageable.

Spieth barked "no face shots,please" as he walked off of 18 to turn in his scorecard; and his caddy tried to Steve Williams the photogs a bit and protect his golfer.

good pay day.

He basically said just that in the post round interview.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

I don't blame him for that at all. And still 5 minutes later he spoke to te media.

Yea, that was weird.

I have to give those guys credit for keeping together as much as they do. After that happened at 12 i wouldn't have had any clubs left because i would've beaten everyone within sight with a different one. Then to still have to play six more holes and keep it together emotionally, well thats not exactly something id excel at for sure.

Nick Faldo only lead the Masters for 7 holes in his entire career....

I was waiting for them to ask Speith to grab a few chairs on the way out of Butler Cabin. Maybe vacuum up after everyone was gone.

At least pick up the one he almost knocked over.

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

i didnt get to sit down to watch the final round until 10pm... i successfully avoided finding out what happened... then of course i doze off after speith birdies 9th putting him up by 4 or 5 shots... i wake up and he is losing by 3, i can only imagine watching that 12th hole car wreck live... wow

It was really a very interesting day of golf. I loved that they weren't able to shoot double digit under par scores. Augusta doesn't often show its teeth like that.

For those who care, here is a link to some of the pictures I took at Augusta when I was there for the Monday Practice round. It is an incredible place. You do not have to be on FB to access this link.

Very cool. Loved the Watson pic....that was one reason I was hoping I would have been chosen thru the ticket lottery this year. That's my guy. Big fan of those concession prices. How much did that black Masters hat set you back?

And I thought the pic of you dressed like Little Bo Peep was an odd addition.

I think the hat was $26. Most of the hats & visors were around that much. The shirts and longsleeves though we're crazy- $60, $80, and over $100. I got a ballmarks with a hat clip for $10, a masters flag for $22, and a nice green coffee mug for $12. So there was a lot of stuff there for a reasonable price, but you can drop $500+ in the merch tent so easily.

The nice thing about getting there early (it was still dark when we parked) is that you get the shopping out of the way, and then check the bags and pick them up as you leave.

And yeah the food prices are awesome. For breakfast my wife and I each got a coffee and I got sandwich...and I got change back from a $5 bill.
