      I think McIlroy will take some stopping!

            I've got tiger at 8/1 and Jason Day at 50/1.

            Brilliant course and tournament and looking forward to watching in 3d this year.

            Best of luck to Rory who I'd like to see win even though I haven't got money on him.

                I think Phil Michelson, Rory McIroy will win. Long shot would be Luke Donald his short game is tops. Everyone jumps on the Tiger bandwagon. If he makes those misses like he did at Bayhill he won't recover them at Augusta.

                    I was lucky as our one broke and i had to sweet talk the mrs big time.

                    But got to agree, tiger is amazing, we he was till he lost his secret powers (woman)

                      Woods is amazing, but I can't stand the mardy arse!!

                      Not had a bet yet, but I'll be pulling for Rory and the rest of the Europeans.

                      Harrington's hitting a bit of form, but he's not the same player he was a few years ago. I like the sound of 50/1 on Day that was mentioned earlier. I might be going with e/w on him?

                        Such a hard one to call, the masters. I don't fancy any of the Europeans other than Rory.
                        Luke Donald has amazing technical ability but I don't think he has the bottle for a major, much like Lee Westwood, the perennial runner up although he is playing well and could be up there.
                        Can't write off big Phil Mickelson, he's won three of the last seven masters.
                        Dustin Johnson seems to be destined for a big win according to Butch Harmon but every time I've bet him, he's imploded!
                        But then what do I know.

                        A stat I read tonight was that nobody has won the Shell Houston Open and gone on to win the Masters the following week.

                        Who knows? I'll enjoy watching though.

                            Just had a thought today- Angel Cabrera hes surely gonna be a threat and at a good price too.

                              I usually have a bet on the masters but usually wait till the second or third round, this year im having a small e/w (?5) on Garry woodland 110/1, was watching the Tavistock cup and he played really well bombing the ball straight.Would like to see Rory win though but the greens in augusta are very tricky. Other than the British open it's one of the best majors.
