Wetterich drops a shot

He has played an unbelievably poised 1st round, his first ever at the Masters, laying up when need be (No. 13), landing approaches in putt-able areas of the greens, cashing in on the few birdie chances he has had, at 7, 9, 10... he just overshot the green at the par-5 15th and missed a 5-footer for par, then followed that up with a solid par on 16... at the moment is in sole possession of second place, a shot behind Justin Rose (and 3 ahead of Tiger Woods and 6 up on Phil Mickelson)... the course is playing hard and fast... certain holes, most notably 16, are almost impossible to birdie...will check back in a bit... they're having wireless problems here...

Wetterich was very poised during that first round. When he pulls his approach slighly left on 17 he didn't slam his club to the ground as Tiger did on 14 when he rolled into the back right fringe.

Brett got a lucky hop, turned it into a bird, and now shares the lead. Just awesome for the local guy. He was even pretty cool in the Butler Cabin with Bill McAtee.

When you see him, tell BW we're all pulling for him tomorrow.
