Koreans represented at the Masters with a strong showing from Anthony Kim, KJ Choi and YE Yang.  Anthony Kim came in 3rd place after a huge final day with 6 birdies and an eagle, posting a -12 before the final groups arrived.  KJ Choi was partnered up with Tiger Woods for 4 straight days at the Masters and ended up with the same exact score with Tiger,  for all four days.  What are the chances?!  KJ actually lead the tournament briefly in the middle of the round, but on hole #13 he fell apart with the first bogey of the day.  YE Yang hung in there as he was partnered with Anthony Kim during the final round.  KJ came in tied for 4th with Tiger Woods and YE Yang tied for 8th.  That’s three Koreans in the top ten at the 2010 Masters!  One of these days, one of these guys is going to break through and the champion’s dinner is going to have Korean bbq and kimchi.  That’s going to be one big dry cleaning bill for all those green jackets.
