Yes, I did enjoy my Augusta-inspired pimento sandwich at Circa’s Stadium Swim.
Thanks for asking.
But the second round of the Masters tees off at 7:40 a.m. ET, so we don’t have much time for you to read insights from our golf experts and do something about it.
Wes Reynolds, Matt Youmans, Kelley Bydlon and Matt Brown offer their first-round impressions and make second-round recommendations on wagers.
Wes pointed out this salient fact to me:
Since 2006 — with the exception of Tiger Woods in 2019 when he was 11th — every eventual Masters winner has been in the Top 10 after Round 1:
Rose, Conners, Scheffler, Åberg, Hatton, DeChambeau, Rai, English, Day and Bhatia are the current Top 10.
Despite that, Wes has some ideas if you are looking further down the board.
Brent Musburger headed to Canton
Congratulations to Brent Musburger. He’s going to Canton. Brent will receive the 2025 Pete Rozelle Radio-Television Award from the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
“I owe a debt of gratitude to a lot of people who worked with me and a whole slew of athletes,” Brent told Mitch Moss and Pauly Howard on Follow The Money on Thursday. >>Watch the segment.
I met Brent in 2016 shortly before VSiN launched and didn’t know what to expect. We hit it off immediately – once a newspaper man, always a newspaper man. More than that, I was impressed with how he treated everyone who approached him. He told me his father, Cec, taught him, “Be nice to the people you meet on the way up the elevator; they are the same people you meet on the way down.”
As his latest honor proves, Brent is still on a long elevator ride up.
Next stop? How bout the Sports Gambling Hall of Fame?!
