On a golf course, silence can convey a lot, particularly when the stakes are as high as they are at the Masters. Additionally, that silence usually signals business when Rory McIlroy is in the final pairing. That’s exactly what Cameron Young experienced during the final round at Augusta National in ...

Augusta National brought plenty of industry chatter.
Kai Trump, the 18-year-old granddaughter of President Donald Trump, picked Bryson DeChambeau to win the Masters after spending time at Augusta National, but the LIV Golf star missed the cut with a triple bogey on hole 18.
It's Moving Day at The Masters, and Brooks Koepka is in contention. Sure, Rory is lapping the field, but Brooks (-3) is hanging around after a strong Friday finish. And no, it is NOT 2018 again. It's 2026! And Brooks Koepka is in the thick of it at a major championship. What a throwback! Naturally, you start to wonder where this has been the past few years. Brooks was the best player in the world at these things for years, and then just fell off the map. Something changed, but I can't quite put my finger on it …Oh yeah! He left the PGA Tour and went to LIV Golf in 2022. That's right. Remember that? What a moment. Back when the golf world was burning to the ground, and players were FLEEING every other day. Fast-forward four years, and Brooks is back. He returned to the Tour this season, and has seemed … normal again. Right? Just normal Brooks. Not miserable. Not disinterested. No longer an afterthought. Happy. He seems happy. His words, not mine!"I'm just enjoying the game a whole lot more," Koepka said after his Friday 72. "I think there's a huge difference if I'm excited to come out and play every week. It is just overall, if your happiness is through the roof, off the golf course and on the golf course, it's really tough to beat it. "You're gonna enjoy every day, everything you're doing." Whooooooooooooof. It's just not a great look for LIV. There's no way to spin that. It's tough. And you couple THOSE comments with how Bryson DeChambeau looked for his brief Masters stint this week, and it's … telling. Bryson missed the cut after folding like a cheap tent on 18 yesterday, and seemed miserable all week. Just miserable. Frankly, the only time he seemed happy was when he and ESPN force-fed us Kevin Hart during Wednesday's Par 3 contest. Other than that? Just miserable. He's not the only LIV player to look awful this week. Only five of the 10 LIV players made the cut, and of those five, only Tyrrell Hatton (T7) and Koepka (T13) are in contention. Jon Rahm, who, like Koepka, was at one time on top of the golf world, is currently in 45th. And no, I haven't forgotten about Patrick Reed. He's the one who could realistically catch Rory McIlroy today, and tomorrow. He's currently six shots back, and he's another cautionary tale. Reed is in limbo right now, no longer with LIV but still suspended from the PGA Tour until this summer. He was adamant earlier this week that he loved his time with LIV, but … again, it doesn't look great. Perhaps it's simply a coincidence that Brooks Koepka is back in contention after officially leaving LIV. Seriously. Golf is a fickle game (duh). You can have your swing for years, and then lose it out of nowhere and never find it again. It happens. But those comments from Brooks weren't by accident. Nothing Koepka says is by accident. He's a lot of things, but ‘vague’ isn't one of them. They were intentional, and they told you everything you needed to know.

However, as the club and the Masters tournament attempt to figure out the line between maintaining traditions and evolving, even they have to admit that they’re not always going to get it right. On…
Welcome to Friday, at The Masters. Can you feel it? The anticipation is building towards the weekend. We've got a solid leaderboard. We've got drama. Balls are flying left and right. Bryson DeChambeau is vigorously printing new irons as we speak as he tries to make the cut. It's been a wonderful Masters week thus far, and we've barely dipped our toe in. We still have Moving Day. We still have the final round. First, we have to cut the field way down, and we'll do that later today. But first, before we head into the weekend and hand everything off to Jim Nantz and CBS, I have a question for everyone, because I've seen a TON of chatter about this. Has ESPN defiled Augusta National? Have they officially ruined the moment? Have they destroyed The Masters, and, really, the sanctity of the event? I'd argue this has been the No. 1 topic on Golf Twitter this week, and, frankly, it's probably a fair question after some of the crap I've seen:Look, it's been a lot. I'll just say that. It's been a lot. I knew the second I saw Jason Kelce on the scene, this was going to go south for ESPN, and that's exactly what happened. The Par 3 contest was a doozy. I know that's usually the event where everyone sort of breathes one final time before the tournament starts, but still, it was a lot. Jason Kelce. Kevin Hart. Please, for the love of God, ESPN, stop forcing Jason Kelce on us. We're begging you. If you want to throw him the MNF booth and make him an analyst, that's fine. By all means. But STOP making us watch him do stuff like this. It's not funny. Nobody ever laughs. I promise you, we don't laugh. Now, is ESPN completely to blame here? No. Augusta National deserves some of it, too. You can't fart on that property without someone knowing about it. If you even kind of look like you're about to go pee in the woods, it's a one-way ticket outta there. Don't you dare let them even sniff a cell phone. My point is, Augusta National controls everything – so much so, that it's, frankly, exhausting. But they control everything. So, yes, they knew exactly what ESPN planned for this week. They knew exactly what was coming. They signed off on everything. Which means they allowed Jason Kelce and Kevin Hart to be insufferable on Wednesday. And they allowed Laura Rutledge to interview "The Miz" on her rotating panel on the back of the fairway yesterday. They did not, however, allow Pat McAfee on the property, which, in hindsight, seems silly given all the other nonsense they let in. Regardless, this is as much an ESPN problem as it is an Augusta National one. Fair is fair. Anyway, happy Friday, at The Masters. Don't annoy us today, ESPN. Please.
