Weather Note

The first group teed-off at 7:10am EST and 25 minutes later or 7:35am, the horn sounded. (Golf Channel)

Players and their caddies returned to practice areas at about 9:40am EST.

The forecast calls for rain, including thundershowers and some lightning, until expected clearing in the afternoon. Nightfall (in Eastern Standard Timezone) will play a factor this evening.


Memories

With a weather delay this morning, there was no better time to reach back to 2005 and one of the greatest moments in Masters history. Just hit play. Just Do It.
