They've been doing that for the past number of years between the late night local news and the Late Show. While I have it to view, it's not something I'd make time to watch live. ESPN & Sportscenter have more than enough coverage, as does the Golf Channel, so really not a big need for that late night 15-minute special.
As for the action, Max Homa had the best second day combined with the overall outcome after 36 holes. It's a 3-way tie with him, Scottie, and Bryson (-6). Morikawa is 3 shots back, and the Cams are both 5 shots back.
To be fair Tiger has a chance, and Rahm, well, at least made the weekend. Rory will be playing this weekend as well. Unless proven otherwise, however, Jack's record at Augusta is safe, Jon will be putting the green jacket on someone else, and the number of career grand slam winners will remain the same.
The only big name that missed is Spieth. Though Jordan played okay, the issue of blowing everything in one single hole was present.
Biggest headline is a new record. 24 straight made cuts at the Masters for the 5-time Masters champion. That, I believe is a records in major events outright. No more than 40 people have even played in over 2 dozen major events in their lifetime. Woods' 100th round at the Masters is scheduled for Sunday, April 14, 2024.
No matter where Tiger Woods finishes, there will be extensive coverage on him. Not sure about Jon Rahm as the reigning champion, but he is further back to the leaders compared to the 15-time major champion. So many people have a shot, but not a decent chance since the weather is actually decent. Finally, I can't see both Scottie & Bryson falling. If they both exit, them that's golf. However, as mentioned, Smith and Young are still within reach; I can see both Cameron players finishing strong this weekend
