The Masters:
- Thread starter Marine03
- Start date
I always look at lefthanders to determine how they are playing. This course sets up beautifully for them but none are currently playing at a winning level.
Beyond that I really think TW will win this at least one more time, nobody besides PM knows the property better.
Justin Rose and Jason Day are in good form, JS will always be a threat because he is so very golf smart which this course requires.
DJ is always a big threat.
IF Rory is solid with the 10ft and under putting he is capable of blowing it out.
What this all means is who knows, I refer to Bob Goalby, George Archer, Tommy Aaron, Trevor Immelmann, Mike Weir among others.

My top 5:
1)Rory-Playing the best in the world right now, if he putts well look out, he wins going away
2)Justin Rose-A great player, comes down to the putter
3)Jon Rahm-a powerful player, has the complete game if he can keep his emotions in check
4)Bubba Watson-If good Bubba shows up and not crazy bubba he is the left hander that can take it
5)Justin Thomas- A fierce competitor if he gets off to a good start watch out
My dark horses I like:
1)Tiger Woods-He is Tiger F'ing Woods
2)Jordan Speith-his stats the last 18 months are just flat out terrible, rumors are he has the yips, but his record at Augusta is stellar. He is playing well this week.
3)Phil Mickelson-Not sure what we will get, but he shows up for Augusta, left hander

I predict Phil will either win or miss the cut. You never know which way he will go. I’m going with Justin Rose, but would love to see Tiger win. He certainly knows how to win at Augusta.
My dark horse is Sungjae Im. He finished 3rd, 4th, and 7th in 3 of the last four tournaments.
As a band, Fleetwood Mcilroy was overrated.
If Fleetwood Mcilroy isn't the house band on the 16th at Scottsdale, we need to start a petition.
The Fleetwood Mc joke has been around for a couple of years but this is really good. If it’s also old I haven’t heard.
Top shelf.
Oh, stop it. You listed more than a half-dozen who you think could win. You also claimed you thought Tiger would win it at least one more time, not necessarily this year, yet you're going to act like you predicted this.
Here, let me try: I think the Astros have a good chance of winning the World Series at least once over the next few years. But the Yankees and Dodgers are always a threat, so I wouldn't be surprised if they win it this year. The Mariners look unstoppable right now. The Phillies' offense is good enough to win it, and there are a few American League teams that have a good shot.
If any of those teams win it, named or unnamed, I am going to claim that I predicted it.
I've never heard the crowd at Augusta chant a player's name like that. Wow.
I’d comment on it, but I don’t have time to grammar check, run my spellchecker, and research the history of the Masters. So I’ll just say...Tiger Woods y’all!
You don’t have time, because you showed up 30 minutes after what The Masters recommends.
Have to say I called it. Blind hog found fhe acorn.
Good to see Tiger win. Great golf played by a bunch of guys.
Gotta feel a little for Molinari.

Golf is much harder to predict. Dont be dense. There are a limited number of major league teams. They are actually teams not individuals. Teams can trade and go get players. You can also narrow it down to teams with the better player and most money.
Golf is probably the hardest sport to pick . Going into the masters rory was probably the favorite. Look what happened. Same for justin rose .
Vegas had Tiger as the third most likely to win. He had 14/1 odds. Greenduke listed more than a half-dozen of golfers who he could then go back to and claim that he correctly predicted it. He listed the Vegas favorite (Rory), Vegas' second favorite (DJ), both of Vegas' #3 guys (tie between Tiger and Justin Rose), the #6 favorite, and them some other guys.
In summary, he claimed that the #1, #2, #3/#4, and #6 guys all could end up winning it . . . if not this year in Tiger's case, then at least another year. Then, he listed a couple of more guys he could see winning it. That's like me saying that I could see 5 of the top 6 Vegas favorites as winning the World Series, also picking a couple of others who I could see winning it all, then coming back and claiming I am Nostradamus when one of those teams wins it.
Christ.
And in doing so, he stated more than a half-dozen of who he thought was going to win without pinpointing one in particular. Then, when one of those half-dozen (who happened to be 5 of Vegas' top 6 favorites), he claims he correctly predicted it.
Right. I think the Astros will win the World Series at least one more time in the future. It could be this year, it could be ten years from now. But I'll be sure to claim my accuracy when it happens.
