I'm picking Rory Mcilroy.

 

He hasn't put it all together yet but seems to be putter better now than the last year or so. He can get hot but it will more important for him to turn in 4 solid rounds. its his time!!!

 

 

.

 

Interested to see what such a well versed golf community has to say as well.

 

 

Thanks,

David

I'm not sure Rory ever wins at Augusta. His third round last year pretty much summed up his relationship with the course.

 

I don't remember how that round played out. What happened other than a high score?

Spieth has to be right up there again. He has such a great history with the course and was one chunk away from back to back jackets. Before he laid the sod over that shot at 12 he was looking at a dominant victory. He just seems to be able to play that course well.

 

Such a good putter on those perfect greens.

Same. He's anywhere from 100to1 to 125to1 to win. I'd think he would be more like 50to1.

 

got a couple bucks on him .

Predictable, but can't see past DJ.

 

Why? He's head and shoulders above everyone else right now. If he just lets it happen, he must be in contention going into Sunday.

 

Speith's long game is ragged and Rory's making too many dumb mistakes. Not sure if JD even plays.

 

im going to go a head and sound like an idiot here, so they say at augusta a player is better to hit it right to left off the tee, and left to right on approach shots, preferably. I think the cut driver DJ has going right now is not going to help him out there!

 

Open to any bashing I may receive on this.

 

This guy.

 

Cause he is really a pimp!

Happy Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriday!!!!!!

 

love his swing

 

Phil is a great pick. Where does John Rahm finish?

 

is Adam Scott putting well enough?

Fair point on the left to right tee shots.

 

He did finish tied 4th last year and tied 6th in 2015 though.

Gotta be Dj. Nothing fazes the guy, so if other players get in a bad spot and get frustrated, he just keeps on trucking.

 

I agree. Currently he is playing a game even his fellow professionals are not familiar with.

 

And, for all the hits DJ takes on his lack of intelligence, I think he is one of the smartest golfers on Tour. He has a sort of divine nonchalance about him. He perambulates down the fairway seemingly without a care in the world. Bad breaks roll of this back and he simply keeps on going. That kind of "Buddha" mind, or whatever you want to call it, is like having an extra club or two in your bag.

Had a discussion with someone at work about this earlier today. As a huge DJ fan my fear is that he's just too obvious of a pick.

 

Not only is he the hottest player on the planet, but he comes in having finally gotten a major, his putting is drastically improved, and his life in general just seems like it's in a great spot.

 

Some other big names all seem to have strikes against them heading into the Masters. Spieth hasn't been great and it will be interesting to see how he deals with returning to his collapse, Day is dealing with his mom and didn't look great anyway so far this year, Rory hasn't played well there and seems to be inconsistent so far to start the year.... In other words it seems like every star is aligned for a DJ win.

 

Just seems that inevitably the opposite will happen.

Only 2 can win and neither of those guys are DJ. Speith if the course plays firm, Rory if it plays soft.

DJ can't win? But Burnt Weisberger could? I don't understand how you came to this conclusion

It seems the hot guy going in doesn't have the best record. Or maybe it's just my fuzzy memory....

 

Hard to bet against DJ however.

 

I feel Bill Haas has the game for that course.

 

So, I'll say Spieth just because I'd like to see him put last year to bed. ( Except if he did win everyone would say he should have 3 in a row. )
