Well, I said the weather was going to change for the second round and it did. Storms coming across the Southeastern states caused havoc in Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama and brought rain and wind to the Masters Course.
We now have Chad Campbell and Kenny Perry tied for first after the 2 round at -9 par. Angel Cabrera is in third at -8 par. There are 8 people tied for Sixth place including Geoff Ogilvy , Vijay Singh and Phil Mickelson.
Eight people are tied at 14th with -3 par, 4 tied at 22nd with -2 par, and 7 tied at 26th at -1 including Tiger Woods.
Gary Player and Fuzzy Zoeller, two of the most beloved Masters Champions of all time, bid a tear-filled goodbye as active participants at the Tournament Friday after 52- and 31 years respectively.
Player is a three-time winner and Zoeller won the 1979 Masters in his first try.
Player and Zoeller both received a large ovation coming up the 18th fairway, Player knelt when he arrived at the putting surface to show his appreciation.
Zoeller called the walk up 18 one of the greatest thrills of his life.
I am sure they will be watching next year from the crowd.
The weather caused Ireland’s Padraig Harrington to see a potential birdie on the par-5 15th hole turn into a par, when he was penalized one shot because his ball moved after he had addressed it.
After setting up to putt, a gust of wind caused the ball to move twice. Harrington backed off the putt and called for rules professional David Price, who explained the one-shot penalty. Harrington finished his round with a one-over-par 73 and stood two-under-par for the tournament and tied for 19th place
The weather today is the mid 70s and Sunny so it should make for some great golf.
I have been learning to play golf and just read a book to help me lower my score and it has really helped. It's called "Breaking 80" but I haven't broken 80 yet but it has helped me lower my score.
I'll be back shortly with highlights of today's action.
