Andy and Brendan are back at the Draddy house to celebrate and denigrate at the midpoint of the Masters. They discuss an amusing Friday finish with Scottie Scheffler sitting under a Magnolia tree looking for a ruling, a despondent Spieth grinding to make the cut, and temperamental Tyrell missing two foot putts. They also discuss Rory McIlroy getting back into the fight with a rousing 66 that has him in the second-to-last group on Saturday after the narrative “buried” him following the two doubles on Thursday. Bryson’s adaptation to Augusta is spotlighted as he makes another run for a green jacket for the second year in a row. There’s a course change discussed and the continued comments on 15th green are also reviewed. They get into some other patron amusements from the ground, a Hat Chat, and a funny nugget about Ken Griffey Jr., photographer at Augusta for the week.
