    Augusta is a Cameron Young town.

    I strolled into an Augusta Starbucks on Sunday morning, after attending mass, of course, and this image greeted me at the register:

    Sure, it might only be 42 cents in the Young jar, as some loser already pointed out to me on X/Twitter, but it's quite the omen that the Young jar is filling up and the McIlroy jar is full. I noticed on the final three holes of Young's round Saturday that the patrons were firmly in his corner, and I asked him after his round if he felt he might be the crowd favorite on Sunday over McIlroy, last year's winner. He said no, but I have a sneaking suspicion he's wrong. We'll find out on Sunday, but Augusta sure seems like it's ready to become a Cameron Young town.
