6:55pm ET: Phil Mickelson wins his 3rd green jacket after an exclamation point birdie on the last hole. What an incredible week it has been for me in particular, as I was on the grounds at Augusta National for the first time. What a tournament. What a place. And I’m spent.

Good news: only 361 days left until the 2011 Masters.

6:40pm: Westwood makes birdie on #17 but Phil handles the pressure making a par putt from about six feet. Two shot lead with the final hole to play. It ain’t over yet. Woods finishes with a 69 after making birdie on the final hole. Strangely, he and Choi played together for four straight days and shot the exact same scores all four days.

I’ve just added over 100 photos to the HOG Masters Gallery. I also added a whole new album called Masters Odd Stuff for things you may not normally see at Augusta National. Here are a couple of samples from the 2010 Masters Tournament gallery.

Above: Ian Poulter reads a tough break on the par-3 6th hole

Fred Couples and his skateboard shoes lead the Masters

Tags: Fred Couples • The Masters

While watching the Tuesday practice round at the Masters this week we followed Fred Couples around on hole #9 and hole #10. We noticed the Ecco shoes and that he was wearing had no spikes. In fact my dad popped some pictures of the shoes (left). He does this to help reduce the impact of walking on his bad back.

On hole #9 we watched Freddie bomb his drive far past three flat bellied younger players.

What can we learn from this? Are spikes or regular golf shoes overrated? Perhaps. I know if I don’t wear spikes I slip all over the place because my weight and balance is shifting so much. Freddy’s balance and center is so good, that he doesn’t slip.
