    Spieth has just broken the record for the most birdies in a masters

    Brilliant golf from Spieth. Haven't been so impressed with a golfer in a long while.

    He wont. They never do. Tiger got closest. Jack only slightly behind. The rest of the greats didnt even get near. If I wheels I'd be a wheelbarrow.

    If you sentence that'd be English.

    That could be the nail in the coffin. His putting has been outrageously good.

    He has looked incredibly comfortable.

    new record number of birdies in a week 26

    Hard to see him lose it now

    Anyone still think he can choke ?

    Tis a bit of a non event really isn't it, quite uninspiring today

    No, its a brilliant event with one player giving a very impressive performance. Yes, it could more nail-biting in terms of the result but it isn't Spieth's fault that you are cheering for someone else. This is a display for the history books and pity on those who don't appreciate it.

    Unbelievable golf all weekend from Speith. I'm going to call it a night, but he was a joy to watch.

    Great to see what looks like another great talent coming through to rival the likes of McIlroy, Fowler etc.

    If a 21 year old breaking several Masters records doesn't excite you maybe you need an early night.

    Yeah it's terrible... who would want to watch a master class of golf from a 21 year old who is showing the world how it should be done.

    Sure we will see ya back here this time next year when you watch your next golf tournament.

    He seems to have this bad shot he reaches on.

    But most places around here you knock out and get a par or bogey.

    If your putting well you still have a par on.

    I can't help but wonder for how long will Rory be the golden boy of golf if Spieth can produce this, or anything remotely resembling this, four times a year.

    Could be a new Arnie/Jack rivalry. I'd say the networks would just love that.

    What is it with big big margin victories in the last few years ?
    It feels like what never happened is now becoming almost common. When it could be argued that the average level of golfers competing is higher and more even. What's up ?

    I like how Rory has kept his temperament and is still playing for top 5, maybe even top 3.

    Good point but with the pressure on tonight , final round of the Masters and a leading , all sorts come into the head and bad things can happen. It's understandable if it unravels

    You misunderstood me. I couldn't really care less who wins. Fair play to Speight, it's class the way he has played. I love all the records he is breaking and hope he breaks more. I meant the pack have had chances to close the gap a bit and at least make a bit of a contest of it. Rose has been disappointing today, I really believe Phil would have done better in the final group but he should be doing better than -1
