Good accurate explainer of the effects on the body of sprinting 400 meters. Understanding this process was key to me breaking the WR and consistently running 43 seconds.

You are not going to believe what happened the first time I played #themasters

It was in 2001 and my 1st round tee time was around 8:30 and I was a little nervous. I just watched Byron Nelson and Sam Snead hit off only a few minutes prior and the enormity of the event was dawning on me as I stood over the ball on that tee shot. 😬

I managed to catch it out of the heel which had the ball sliding down the left rope line, frankly I was pleased it was on planet earth. This joy was brief as I saw one of the patrons fall to the ground and my ball ricocheting through the pines to the left.

I might vomit at this point..couldn’t help but imagine some poor soul has waited 15 years for tickets #themasters and I’ve nearly killed him at 8:30 in the morning 🤢

It wasn’t great once I got there..I’d hit him right above his eye and you could see the dimple pattern in the lump now forming. I don’t think a signed glove is gonna cut it on this one..Not good.

If I was nervous before I’m now close to lying in the fetal position and sucking my thumb. My 2nd shot I have to slide a 4iron thru about 4 pines and slice it back towards the fairway..I got the 1st part done but failed on the 2nd bit so managed to hit a person in the shoulder on the right rope line up by the green.

I’ve waited my entire life to play Augusta National.I’ve taken 2 swings and hit 2 patrons.

Put me down for a bogey and a solid 78 at the end of the day and I’m not saying I’m the reason but it’s no coincidence patrons are no longer allowed on left side of #1

Enjoy your #themasters

@GerardBrady100 a VC would never complain about concentration in fund returns because the alternative is bad fund returns!

[Stephen McIntyre @stephenpmc]

@dermotcasey @joehas @thecurrency that's encouraging. I'm only well placed to comment on the sectors I've worked in.

[Stephen McIntyre @stephenpmc]

@PaulSweeney @joehas @thecurrency I suspect pre IPO FDI companies and local scale ups are the key. Meta to tiny startup will never be a thing. But Series E FDI co to local Series A firm certainly would be.

@jaycee001 thanks John, though I'm primed for sarcasm when I hear the phrase "pearls of wisdom"... 😬

@PaulatThePanel @thecurrency thanks Paul
