Still amid the Masters Pines ... at Amen Corner...

(The latest report filed from Dipper, our golf wag in Augusta...)

TA,

The brassie will bounce, my son, an accomplished lad with club in hand if I do say so myself, tells me. The trick, of course, is to get the bounce correctly. Too soon, beware the worms, too late, beware the birds.

The middle link of Amen Corner, is Eldrick's location now. He's flown the green with his tee ball, praying for a lie in the bunker instead of on the bermuda.

Shreveport resident David Toms is in red figures for the day after a birdie on the tail of the Corner, to stand at plus-3 for the event.
