HR1 - Rory McIlroy winning his 1st Masters last year may be key to winning it this year
In hour one Mike Johnson, Ali Mac, and Beau Morgan quickly touch on some of the biggest headlines around the local and national sports scene, recap and react to the first round of The Masters, explain why they think Rory McIlroy looked at ease during the first round of The Masters yesterday after getting his first Masters win last year, let you hear a chunk of their interview with Atlanta Falcons Head Coach Kevin Stefanski, explain why they think losing starting right tackle Kaleb McGary is a tough loss but shouldn't cause Falcons fans to panic, let you hear Stefanski talk about what his plan is for Falcons tight ends Kyle Pitts, Charlie Woerner, and Austin Hooper, and react to what Coach Stefanski had to say as well. Then, Mike, Ali, and Beau close out hour one by spending some time recapping the first round of The Masters with former PGA Tour caddie Mick Middlemo! Mike, Ali, Beau and Mick discuss Mick having to get up at 3 AM to watch The Masters because he lives in Australia, where Mick is in Australia right now, Bryson DeChambeau blaming the sand in the bunker for his struggles in the bunker yesterday, how quickly a round can spiral out of control and turn bad at Augusta National, why Mick is surprised to see Rory McIlroy at the top of the leaderboard, Sam Burns having a good round because he’s such a good putter, which golfer Mick thinks would break the internet if they found a way to win The Masters this year, if the PGA needs to address the issue about how far golfers are hitting golf balls right now, if Tiger Wood’s image is starting to become a problem for the PGA, the future of Tiger’s golf career, and if Tiger doing the ceremonial tee shot at The Masters is in jeopardy now because of the stuff he’s been going through in his personal life, and if Mick is going to go to bed early tonight, so he can wake up early to watch The Masters from Australia.
