maddog Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 Woods is back, but i anticipate and hope for a very open competitive field. But chances are, with an American winning this 6 times in the last 8 tournaments, that will be the case again. The last European to win this was 10 years ago, Jose Maria Olazabal, and the last British player was Faldo back in '96. Always look forward to watching this though
Hitesh Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 I'm hoping this will be a close Masters and would love to see a European winner! But I can just see Tiger doing it in his usual style!
Dr The Singh Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 It's gotta be one of the SInghs - Jeev Milkha Singh or Vijay Singh
Trav Le Bleu Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 I love the Masters, it's just right for winding down at the end of a day. Beautiful course, Augusta, and I love the 16th, a real all or nothing hole!
Uncle Albert Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 Masters is my favourite Major for some reason I love it. There are some quality groupings going round for the opening two rounds, Ernier Els and V. Singh together. Always going to back my favourite Golfer, Mr. Sergio Garcia. Its about time he won a Major.

True, and as much as I would love to see it, just can't see him winning at Augusta - his record there is not good. It's hard to look much beyond Tiger for this week but I'd say Casey will be the top European.
Milky Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 Notice how they never show aerial shots. The course is surrounded by a real shithole apparently.

Leicester Lass Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 Ruling young Rory out? I think he might turn a few heads. Not really ruling him out, I wouldn't be at all surprised if he has a good week, but I would be surprised, and very impressed, if he finishes as the top European.
lavrentis Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 It's gotta be one of the SInghs - Jeev Milkha Singh or Vijay Singh Gotta be Vijay. I had Vijah Singh 2005 on my phone, quality game.

Agreed, great player just dont think he is quite good enough yet. Hope he proves us wrong though

Going to be massive soon. I just hope its a close tournament like the PGA last year.
Dr The Singh Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 Somebody deleted my post!!! :laugh: Atleast tell me on what grounds!!!
Dr The Singh Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 Gotta be Vijay. I had Vijah Singh 2005 on my phone, quality game. Great bloke aswell, being a Sikh he supported many Sikh seperatist movements making him an equivalent of the Real IRA to some ignorants!!!!
Sparky Posted 8 April 2009 Posted 8 April 2009 Having few quid each way on Immleman (100/1) and Boo Weekley(150/1)
maddog Posted 8 April 2009 Author Posted 8 April 2009 Having few quid each way on Immleman (100/1) and Boo Weekley(150/1) Ive gone for Furyk (70/1), Stenson (33/1)
Uncle Albert Posted 9 April 2009 Posted 9 April 2009 I have put money on Westwood to finish top European at 6/1.
Bridge Posted 9 April 2009 Posted 9 April 2009 It's tough to win the Masters unless your a great putter..that leaves Sergio & Casey out. Tiger has to be the huge favorite again but Ogilvie is in great form and usually putts well..at 10/1 he's a good bet.

Tiger has to be the huge favorite again but Ogilvie is in great form and usually putts well..at 10/1 he's a good bet. Two top 10 finishes and an 11th place in 4 starts at The Masters, and a win last week on a course with a set-up not too dissimilar to Augusta. I might well be wrong, but I think he'll have a good week.
maddog Posted 9 April 2009 Author Posted 9 April 2009 Ross Fisher and the duck are going well. Fisher's bound to crumble soon though being English.
Ultra Posted 10 April 2009 Posted 10 April 2009 Good round by Fisher in the end. But Jim Furyk is probably the favourite right now.
Head Honcho Posted 10 April 2009 Posted 10 April 2009 Good round by Fisher in the end.But Jim Furyk is probably the favourite right now. Believe it or not Tiger is still favourite at 7/4 Absolutely ridiculous odds-he should be 6/1 or 7/1 at least but then I suppose he's done it from this position before. I wouldn't have got 18/1 for Chad Campbell if not for the Woods effect so I'm not complaining
maddog Posted 10 April 2009 Author Posted 10 April 2009 Good round by Fisher in the end.But Jim Furyk is probably the favourite right now. He better win, ive got him at 70/1
maddog Posted 10 April 2009 Author Posted 10 April 2009 Furyk has just dropped another shot Mcilroy is going to get disqualified for kicking sand. Campbell and Perry are leading. Tigers 7 shots back yet still favourite to win the tourney No chance
Ultra Posted 10 April 2009 Posted 10 April 2009 The Europeans are not having a good tournament. At one stage today, Sandy Lyle ( ) was the highest on the leader board.
