The drought breaks.

The monkey is off the back. Floodgates might open at last.

Jason Day will win one.

Great putting late for Scott on the 18th and the third playoff hole.

Great Scott! We've finally done it. What a fantastic win and after his last day in last year's British Open, what a way to bounce back.

To win the Masters and the green jacket. Well done Adam Scott - you've done your Country proud.

Cabrera was great again ... he is such a great fighter and competitor. Jason Day fought hard as well and his day will come.

But it's our day .... at last!

Looks like the Shark has got some company after that Jordan Spieth meltdown ... hard to believe his 3rd shot into the water on 12 (Jordan's tee shot into the water on the same hole was bad enough but to hit it fat like that was astonishing)

Anyway, Danny Willett played very well and is a worthy champion but this year's tournament is going to be remembered for other reasons ... all the same, Willett is ranked 12 in the World and could quite conceivably go on and become a multiple major winner.

Once again the back 9 on the final day at Augusta was filled with high drama.  Spieth will no doubt be back in contention soon enough but it will be interesting to see how he fares the next time he confronts 'Amen Corner'.

Arnold Palmer dead at 87.

Adam Scott would have to be a realistic chance as he does finish well and is only 3 behind.  However, Justin Rose might just be too good in the end.  31 on the back 9 today from Rose might be pointer.

Spieth,  Garcia,  Moore,  Fowler,  Hoffman & Schwartzel are all within striking distance as well.  As always, high drama will almost certainly ensue.  Especially on the back 9.

Sorry for being a bit off topic but did anyone see that chick get a 4 stroke penalty for putting her ball down about a centremetre away from where she marked it?

2 strokes for moving it incorrectly

2 more strokes for writing the wrong score down because she didn't know she had been penalised the original 2 strokes in the first place.

Unbelievavble. She still made it to a play off hole but lost that.

The following might happen on a Sunday Social game

Joaquin Niemann ... Bunker to bunker to (same) bunker to bunker eventually leading to an 8 on a par 3

Went from -1 overall to -6 ... hopefully he gets back on track and makes the cut
