Moving Day
/Intriguing pairings for Saturday at The Masters:
If I could only watch one pairing it would be Thomas Pieters and Rickie Fowler. The 25 year old Belgian and 28 year old American should make for fireworks and I like them both.
A close second would be Jon Rahm and Fred Couples. Could watch Freddie swing all day, got a glimpse of him on the range Wednesday and his free flowing speed was as good as ever, pretty impressive at 57. Rahm, a 21 year old Spaniard, doesn't look 6'4" and the power he brings from the short swing is real. He plays smart, looks comfortable. Hope they both score well, would make for a more interesting Sunday for sure.
Some other interesting pairings will be Phil and Jordan (will be a lot of talk between the two of them and Bones and Michael; they know what they are doing around Augusta National). Just read that Phil played his first Masters 3 years before Jordan was born... only in golf! Rose and Scott, two international thoroughbreds. And Kuch with Rory will bring plenty of fandom.
We should be in for some Saturday of golf. With temperatures in the low 70's and wind under 5 MPH the scoring should be much lower than the first two days, can't wait....
