Yesterday, I had to hold a review session for an exam in the late afternoon, which mostly killed my TV viewing for Sunday. So all I really got through yesterday was the Masters, and a soap:
soaps: DOOL - Fri's ep. Tedious - Vivian demands that she get her half of Titan, etc. for forging the letter, and then demands that Philip and Kate murder Xander to make it happen! At a romantic dinner(?), Sarah doesn't deserve Xander (duh!!). Rex warns Roman about Kate's gun and the fact that Kate may have shot EJ; later, Roman discovers his gun is gone (it was taken by Johnny, though Roman doesn't know this). Sami goes through her tawdry past to try to explain to Johnny how she ended up with her rapist, EJ - Johnny seemed to buy it, but going through Sami's past reminded everyone what a scumbag she was!!
The Masters - Wow! This wasn't the ending I was expecting! Poor Justin Rose!!
I guess I should back up, and start at the beginning...
As the Final Round opened, I despaired, as Rory McIlroy double-bogeyed the first hole, and I think Bryson DeChambeau birdied it, and so McIlroy and DeChambeau were tied early on, and it looked like Rory might throw it all away.
But McIlroy settled down after this, and retook the lead, while DeChambeau basically fell apart on the final day (I think he finished... seventh?) - I've seen this show repeat at a lot of the Masters over the years!
So it reset to the Day 3 picture with Rory in the lead, and seemingly in the drivers seat.
Meanwhile, down the leaderboard, most of the challengers ended up doing the same as DeChambeau, and falling back (Åberg triple-bogeyed one of the last holes to totally take himself out of contention).
But one guy, Justin Rose, kept hanging in there (once again!), and hit a clutch put on the final hole to come within one shot of Rory.
It looked like Rory was still in the drivers seat. But he missed a relatively easy par put on the 18th hole! His bogey putt him into a tie with Rose!
Off to the sudden death playoff we go!!
This went exactly like expected - Rose couldn't hit the putt he needed for birdie on the first playoff hole, while Rory's approach shot put it 3-feet from the hole. Rory put his putt in to birdie, and win the playoff!!
Rory gets the career Grand Slam, the first person to have done it since Tiger Woods in 2000!!
Poor Justin Rose - this is the third time he's finished second at the Masters, and the second time he's lost it in a sudden-death playoff (he lost a playoff in 2017 too!). Always a bridesmaid and never a bride... :(
After my review session, I put on "Sins of the Bride", a 2024 Tubi original that Lifetime was airing for broadcast, on as background noise. It seemed like a weird one - because I wasn't paying full attention, I couldn't tell if the psycho stalker dude was after the bride (sexually), the groom (sexually), or both!! I had to go to bed by the time he was holding both of them captive, so I'm not sure how this one resolved...
