Czabe is joined by Jon Guhl and John Ronis to pick apart "moving" day at Augusta, where only a few people moved, as conditions were almost as difficult as Friday. Is Scheffler vulnerable, or "due" to unleash his real "A" game and blow away the contenders Sunday? Can Morikawa's new putter/claw grip hold up under Masters Sunday pressure? Who isn't rooting for the "Vibe King" Max Homa? And watch out for young sensation Ludvig Aberg. Also Czabe says the course was "too long, and greens too fast" for what he likes at Augusta. Is he right, or a heretic who should be burned on a stake outside the Butler Cabin?
