The Masters Tournament

Every year after Easter, is The Masters golf tournament from Augusta Georgia. And every year there seems to be a crowning of a new golf icon.

This year if was 21 year old Jordan Speith. He led from start to finish, and put on a show of how to maintain your composure when so young, under the whole world watching and not falter. He rarely got into trouble, and when he did...made a shot that allowed him to save par. He had some players get close, Phil Mickelson, Justin Rose, all made charges...but couldn't get him.

Rory McIilroy played ok...but really didn't get going good until the 3rd and 4th round...he is still looking for his first green jacket and his career slam. Tiger Woods never really got it going, he played well...but was never really a contender.

I hope that Jordan can keep it up, as over the last 6 or so months he has been a very good player, and may even be the best and most consistent playing right now.
