In years past I recall watching morning round coverage on one of the Cable Networks...just don't remember when.

Earlier coverage will be available online @ masters.com. Before it was on ESPN, early round coverage was on USA but that was still late in the day. I believe The Masters always has limited TV coverage.
The amazing 60-year old Tom Watson has completed his round atop the leaderboard at 5-under par. Once again...INCREDIBLE!
I just finished watching today's action...lots of great score, and nice to see Couples (50) and Watson (60) having outstanding rounds.

Good to see a 5 & 60 year old a-top the leader board. Can they hang on though? Tiger btw, posted his LOWEST opening round ever in the Masters yesterday. 
Add Sandy Lyle at -3 and that leader board could be mistaken for 20 years ago. LOL
That was the softest I've ever seen that course play. What is the forecast as it affects the greens hardening up and the wind gusting?
I just finished watching today's action. The scores were a bit higher today, but still very good. Expect the greens to be harder and faster over the weekend...with difficult pin locations. Watson and Couples were showing their age today, but they are still near the top of the leaderboard.

And look who is lurking in near the leaderboard....EVERYONE above him is looking over his shoulder.
Phil the Thrill came within a few inches of displacing Johnny Vandermeer as the holder of the most difficult record in all of professional sports to break.
