There are a number of great groups including Gotterup's. Rory being the winner last year will play will US Amateur Champion Mason Howell, who is only 18! Spieth, Rose, Koepka. 3 US Open Champions, DeChambeau, Fitzpatrick, Schauffele.
But before Thursday comes, there is the great tradition of the Par 3 tournament which is highly entertaining on Wednesday.
Howell is heading to Georgia in the Fall. Georgia is a good squad even without him, Ranked #23.

Question for better golfers than me here which at this point would be just about everyone............

Chris is known as having a lower ball flight with less backspin than most. Is that something that could hurt him at a course like Augusta National with it's notoriously fast greens. Along with the wind today and tomorrow, they may be super fast.

He'll still be one of the top players in driving distance this week, when he is using his driver.

Rory’s chip in on 17 was amazing. Was thinking he might drop a shot, ends up with birdie to extend his lead.
Phenomenal shot, but like on 13 and 15, where he hit bad drives, he made perfect trouble shots to good spots to at least make par likely and birdie possible.
