I'm not sure, but I think Streelman's mom took these pics!

My camera, my ticket, my photos and my friend.

I guess you have a few other choices,

#1 - no photos at all
#2 - head down to Augusta, buy your own ticket and take the photos you want
#3 - weed thru the photos, skipping the Streelman photos
[b]#4 - suck it up and appreciate all the other 1100 + photos[/b]

Just a little harmless fun... sorry it didn't come across as harmless!!
I loved all the pictures and really appreciate you taking them. My last attempt at humor, can't tell who is sensitive out there.

With all due respect to Greg (thanks for the great pix, Greg-- and I wish I could be there to carry your gear)Jill54 did have me chuckling a bit.

Not sensitive, per se but when you get one guy whine there are no golf course shots, when he hasn't looked thru all the threads/photos. Then someone comments there are too many of this player or not enough of that player. There is no way to please. This tournament is not like a regular Tour event and it takes a lot more time, effort/hard work to get photos. Kevin played with Freddie and Phil on the front nine. I was just going to walk the front nine early and take photos of each hole.

Instead I fought thru the huge gallery of patrons following them to take photos & videos (to be posted later) of their group. Walked all 18 holes + some extras.

And if there is a player or two that is missing, it's because they weren't there on Monday or Tuesday or I didn't see them during the 10 hours I was there each day.

That's all.

Plus, I missed the emoticon winking that might have let me know it was just harmless fun. Sorry

Pix look surreal. Visiting this place is on my bucket list.

[IU06]

Well done Greg! Awesome pics!

[shawnee]

[size="2"]The pics are THE best ever on WRX IMO.... many thanks[/size]

[glenametz]

Thank you for the pics, all of your hard work is certainly appreciated. Attending the Masters is on my golf bucket list along with:

Play Pebble
Play St. Andrews
Drive to NYC on a whim and camp out for Bethpage Black
Play Oak Hill (I live 5 miles from it, never played it. I have a few leads on it this summer.)
Do a custom fitting at a major manufacturer

Soo cool the master is just the greatest week of golf of the year

Haha....I know. Streelman is in every pic. Its like where's Waldo. You know what this means, he is probably going to win the whole thing.

[Riuzzi]

Fantastic pics, Greg!

[turk19772008]

Great Job on all the pics!

[300yard+]

Easily one of the places a golfer must visit at least once in a lifetime......Great pics thank you for sharing!

[DavePelz4]

Greg...thanks for giving us all a glimpse of what heaven looks like!

[Bunker2Bunker]

Thanks for the pics! They are fantastic!

One question: Who are the girls who keep popping up in Pics? It looks like the same group in several pics from different days? Streelman's following?

Played the East course a handful of times . Neighbor was a member and when I was in Highschool we played some matches there against Mc Quaid Jesuit.

[SeattleGolfer66]

Greg - thanks for the pics. I know you worked you tail off bringing these to us, and you did a heck of a job. THANK YOU!

I keep hoping that one of these days we will see a GolfWRX giveaway for a foursome to play Augusta. We have had one of a kind prototypes and trips to the Kingdom and other amazing goodies. SOMEONE on here has to have the clout to set this up. I suppose though that if it did happen, it would probably break the randomizer because there would be so many entries!

[nalimgus]

Awesome pics - leave Streels alone - he and his caddy Michael Collins (@funnycaddy) brought my kid out of the crowd and let him carry for 3 holes at Colonial on Tuesday a couple years back

I thought that was Yani Tseng there yesterday - I saw her about 3 times and actually saw her waiting in a looonnng line to get her picture taken at Founders Circle - interesting that she had the same credential I did (A ticket) - love the equality at the Masters!

What a day for a first timer

[jadedennill]

Enjoyed the pictures. Too bad we didn't get to see more of Kevin Streelman.

What's with the chick pictures on Wednesday? Who are they?

[pga43]

Monday, I was the 1st patron thru the 1st security gates. For some reason, the guards at the booth where PGA members check in, scanned my ticket and let me walk out to the range, while all the other "patrons" were waiting for the metal scanners to open up and allow them thru.

As a PGA member, the Masters will give us a complimentary daily ticket. We have to show our PGA card (with photo on it) and a driver's license in order to get the ticket and it can't be sold or given away cuz it has no re-entry stamped right on it.

Below are some photos of the tickets from Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday. 1st time I didn't stay all week in 8 years.

Also took a photo of the cap, flag, ball markers, program and spectator guide that I picked up this year.

I was going to make the comment "Nice to see Elin Woods...oops, Nordegren, take time out of her schedule to show up at the Masters!"

[oih]

Why are there so many kevin streelman pics. This is really getting annoying.

[oih]

OMG. More freaking Streelman pics. WTF is going on? There are so many players and i have to see this dude in every pic.

[pga43]

......More freaking Streelman pics. .......

 

I accept that challenge and will try to take even more Streelman photos at the Texas Open next week!

Just saying. Appreciate all the great pics. But in all honesty, Streelman ain't no superstar and he seemed to be in every freaking picture. If the guy was A team (mickelson, woods, etc) then fine. But the guy is C team at best in his career so far and it was really annoying seeing him featured in every section. That is all. Keep up the great work.

Like I posted earlier, my tickets to the Masters, my camera, my time, my photos and Kevin is my friend. Don't like my photos when there are 1100 + that aren't of Kevin, buy a ticket, take your own photos and then post them here so we can be critical of your choice in players you chose to take pictures of.
