Smith;
GIR's 78% , fairways hit - 71%
two doubles on the card , shoots 68
the guy has the flat blade to pull off The Double: The Player's + The Masters in the same year(think only Woods has done that?)
Im (a robotic swing, the guy is an ATM machine)
GIR's- 72 %, fairways hit- 72% . Im needs to keep hitting greens, cause if he doesnt ?dont think around the greens he holds up. His short game is not refined
Friday will be a BIG day for some elite names: Rahm, JT, Brooks, DeChambeau (he is way way out of sorts), Xander --- flag hunting

FWIW
No player has won Masters after day one 34th or worse. Tiger in 33rd beat winner after day 1
Average position of winners after day 2 is 7th
Average position after day 3 is 3rd
Should be a big shakeup tomorrow with weather. Early guys will be in better position it seems with the wind factor and softer course.
Big names in top 25 OWGR with fighters chance and should possibly climb after tomorrow with earlier tee times
Rahm May be my favorite at 30-1. 20 points better than his open. And always a guy who creeps back into things when a forgotten man. He has done it many times.
Brooks 80-1
Hatton 55-1
Xander 66-1
Rahm 30-1
Fitzpatrick 33-1
Too juicy to overlook. But...
JT 125-1
Always buy the dip on the stock. Opens door to great hedge opportunities also. Don’t always need em to win. Just a couple inside the ropes come Sunday and buy some other stock in guys.
Board should have some big changes by end of tomorrow. Should be fun to see the chaos and who puts together good rounds. Early guys out will probably try for big moves and be aggressive to jump field and PM waves who may have to just grind and hold on. +2 may be a great score for PM guys. IMO anything-2 to -3 will be solid scores. So guys +4 to +1 can get to E par with anything under par. And leaderboard guys may fall back into -1 to -2 range. So different ball game quickly. Basically tournament is wide open. Cream of crop should pull away Sat and Sunday with much better conditions.
Looks like few holes may shorten up tomorrow also.
