Monday After the Masters at Reynolds Plantation

Great as always to be invited by Reynolds Plantation to their annual "Monday After the Masters" extravaganza.

This year we were graced the presence of two PGA Tour pros in Stewart Cink and Brian Harman.

I only had time to play 9 holes, but I played pretty well for me.

Bubba Leading the Masters but Adam Scott Leading the Social Media

www.Sprinklr.com is tracking the Masters golf, but in a brand new way.

They are looking at social media interactions as it relates to Augusta.

Bubba Watson may be leading on the leaderboard after round 2, but Adam Scott is still leading in terms of social media.

Sprinklr.com been tracking all the athletes, hashtags, and sponsors and here’s what we’ve seen:

    146,200 total social mentions related to The Masters so far.

    The most popular hashtag is #masters2014 with 6,895 mentions.

    IBM is getting the most value for its sponsorship with 4X the mentions of Mercedes

    Bill Haas might have had the first-round lead in the tournament, but Adam Scott (5,200 social mentions) is winning with more than twice the buzz of Haas (2,100 social mentions).

A current chart:

We'll find out who comes out on top on Sunday.

14-Year Old Qualifies for Masters

If you spent the day watching NFL football all day Sunday, you might've missed this.

Guan Tianlang (first name pronounced like the name “Juan”) is from China and he won the Asian-Pacific Amateur Championship in Thailand on Sunday, shooting a final round 1-under par 71 to finish at 15-under and win by one stroke.  Guan made a clutch 5-footer for par on the 18th hole with the tourney on the line to clinch the victory and the spot in Augusta.

At 14 years, five months and 17 days Tianlang will be the youngest player to compete in the Masters by more than two years.  Italy’s Matteo Manassero played in the Masters at the age of 16 in 2010 after winning the ’09 British Amateur.  Earlier this year at the age of 13, Guan became the youngest competitor ever to play in a European Tour event when he teed it up at the China Open.

Can't wait to see this teenager walking the hallowed grounds of Augusta National.

Could you imagine the story if he won it?

Or the Champion's Dinner the following year?
