We went straight to the first tee and followed Tiger, Mark O'meara and Calchaviccia for most of the morning.. He's gotta be the favorite to win this thing again. Much media hype about Augusta trying to "Tiger-proof" the course. It just aint so! They lengthened several holes this year in an attempt to preserve Bobby Jones' original intentions for the course. IE: shotmaking and putting. Emphasis is on approach shots and placement on the greens. Examples: No 4-Par 3, 245 yds. not a birdie hole anymore. No 11-par 4=505yds.
