Dude Perfect at Augusta. Really!??
Tiger the only player that moves the dial in the beautiful game
Hey Everyone
Welcome to all our new subscribers joining in for our weekly TM wrap up of prize money payouts, world ranking movers and opinionated golf content!
Again coming to you slightly earlier than usual because of the Masters this week! And what a week are in for with Tiger (at this stage) pegging it up Thursday.
Let me just state the obvious here in case you perhaps forgot - we are lucky enough to be in the era of the biggest, most powerful player to have ever played the game. Ridiculousness on another level.
Right! Onto this week’s features in The Mulligan…

Dude Perfect’s Augusta Skit
Popular American sports and comedy group Dude Perfect shot a crazy video at Augusta National on Friday. The club stated ‘we’re committed to being more open’ hence allowing them to do this.
I must be honest, I was in the camp of the ‘traditionalists’ thinking what on earth is the point of this?? If it was a regular golf course then who cares. But at Augusta National, golf’s sacred ground!
Anyway be that as it may. Cool, no problem.
Can they not then just be more open in a number of other aspects such as strictly terming fans ‘patrons’ or banning a commentator for stating that the greens were so fast they used ‘bikini wax’ on the greens. I mean are you serious!??
How about easing up on not having a playoff after two rounds for those tied at the Augusta National Womens Amateur? Rather than having exactly 30 lucky enough to play Augusta National, make it 31 or 32 or probably 33 maximum!
Or perhaps letting a player hit a second ball off the tee in a practice round if he’s hit a poor shot?
Or maybe easing up on the strict invite policy and extending a very worthy invite to Richard Bland for heaven sake! Shubhankar Sharma was extended an invite in 2017, does Bland not deserve an invite considering what he’s done and been through the last year and a half in particular?
I’m not saying dish them out, but just consider giving ONE special invite each year to add to your 88ish - 94ish strong field. Mark Calcavecchia and a number of others are in agreement.
