The 2011 PGA Masters wrapped up Sunday afternoon and it sure lived up to all of the hype. You may have even logged onto your Facebook account and noticed many status updates about the tournament, which I know surprised me. "Tiger is back!" "Gotta love Masters Sunday's." and so on. Golf is becoming more and more popular to the general public, even to those who have never picked up a club in their life. But how could it not when Tiger is back in the hunt on a Sunday, young McIlroy has an epic meltdown and we had no idea who would win. But surprisingly, according to the New York Times, Charl Schwartzel's stunning victory couldn't quite match last year's Masters ratings (highest ever).  Perhaps though the 12% fall wasn't all that shocking. Last year it was Tigers' return back to competitive golf after the collapse of his marriage, and really his entire personal life, and Phil Mickelson, everyone's favorite lefty, won the tournament.
