Masters Product Placement

I don’t watch a lot of golf, but I do like to watch the majors, especially if Tiger’s near the top of the leaderboard, and the shot he hit on 16 is why. That was the kind of shot you usually have to make on some kind of sadistic mini-golf course. Not only does he hit the shot, but he places the ball so that the logo is facing the camera during the pregnant pause before the ball finally drops.

That’s why he gets the big sponsorship bucks!

i normally could care less about golf. but tiger, whether he wins or loses, is worth following. he already has won four Masters before age 30. how old was Jack Nicklaus when he won #4 (he ended up winning six times)? like Ali, Ruth, and Jordan, Tiger transcends his sport!

i just answered my own question - nicklaus was 32 when he won #4 (he won #6 at age 46)

Never thought about the logo part even though I watched it a couple of times. Great comment.
