If ever there was a non-story at the Masters this year, it’s defending champion Zach Johnson. The man who will be placing the Green Jacket on this year’s winner is just a footnote in Masters’ coverage that is fully Tiger Woods -centric.
If you remember your golf history, it was in 2007 that Johnson stunned Woods and the golf world by playing a remarkably steady four ...

From what we saw of it, we kind of enjoyed ESPN's Masters coverage yesterday. With all the screaming and beeping and what-not on the network anymore, it was almost pleasant to have the sleepiness inherent in Masters coverage wash over The Leader. A channel in which everyone seems afraid to raise their voice makes for happy viewers. Still, it was strange to hear Jim Nantz on ESPN; imagine ...This Man Fathered A Swedecaublasian [The Masters]

I've been a huge fan of Zach Johnson since last year, even if his little religious rants after winning at Augusta were a little overboard. Nonetheless, he seems to be a great guy that carries himself well and hits the ball damn well. I also think he is one of the few golfers that never tries something he can't pull off, something none of us writing or reading this could ever say. He finished ...It's Only Thursday, but Zach Johnson Leads The Masters Like It's 2007
Posted 4/10/2008 on FanHouse
Zach Johnson thinks it's still 2007. He's just made his way around Amen Corner in par-birdie-birdie and now leads The Masters at 3-under. He started the day with a birdie on arguably the toughest opening hole in golf, and added another at No. 5 before dropping a shot on the last hole of the front nine. Unlike recent Masters, the conditions are benign and the scoring is relatively low. ...Track Your Fantasy Golf Teams With Additional Masters Coverage
