4:00 on Master's Sunday. Beautiful course and great play. But, one can't overlook the racist history of that place.

Especially after Hoffman started tanking.

He had an impressive round. He had a number of opportunities to fold, but managed not to. Rose kept putting pressure and he kept responding. It was a pretty exciting final day--the last 6 especially.

. . .i was glued to those last 8 holes. I was watching on and off until about 11. Then, i put off eating in order to stay focused on it until it was over. Yes, my dinner was cold by that time.
