AUGUSTA - A quick look at Tuesday at the Masters.
They said it
“If everything comes together, I think I can get one more.” – Tiger Woods on what he is capable of this week
“People can say I moved to one side, but I did it for my family and what I had in front of me at that point in time. I think my mom would have probably smacked me for not taking the deal.” – Bryson DeChambeau on move to LIV
“Stats like that are meant to be broken. So I know it’s a tall task. It’s a challenging golf course. There’s a bunch of good golfers. With that said, you still have to match -- you have to still bring your game. So it’s not like you can just flip a switch and win it. But, yeah, that would be an amazing accomplishment. And I like my chances. I really like myself on this golf course.” – Wyndham Clark on a first-timer not winning Masters since 1979
“I mean, have you played here?” – Brooks Koepka on whether anyone can shoot a 59 at Augusta National
