I think it's about time to start predicting who's gonna win the Masters. I wouldn't say I'm gonna go out on a limb, but I have to say Luke Donald. I pick him just because he has looked strong not only in the Match Play, but in all tournaments he has played so far. Another reason is that the course suits him. He has an erratic driver with his pull-hook, but you can get in trouble at Augusta and still come out(look at both Tiger and Phil). Either him or some other strong player right now like Kevin Na, Bill Haas, or Mark Wilson.

It's been 12 years since a European last won with Olazábal. With the european players making an impact the last couple of years, I would like to see one of them win it.

Don't know who's entering, but someone inside the top 10 on the OWGR perhaps. I won't bet on Tiger until he gets his swing fixed.

Would like to see Ryan Moore win one.  However, Mickelson would be my choice.

Trying to look at 'Masters consistency' as well as 'current consistency' - if I had to pick from both tours, I'm going for either Hunter Mahan or Ian Poulter

My Master's predictions:

10)  Jim Nantz will induce uncontrolled vomiting in a small percentage of the CBS viewership with his sickly sweet platitudes at the start of Sunday's telecast

9)  Phil will save par with a 9-iron from the carpet inside Butler Cabin after a very errant tee shot.   But he will double bogie the next hole when he uses two drivers at the same time to try and drive the green on #11 "White Dogwood".   He will ultimately finish alone in 6th place

8)  Using the Konika Minolta BizHub Swingvision Camera, Peter Kostis will incorrectly diagnose the cause of nearly every player's miss to the right.   Or the left.

7)  Nick Faldo will begin a sentence "Back in my playing days....", and do the same 297 times during the telecasts

6)  Teenage girls mob a local Augusta Waffle House when it is reported that Rickie Fowler is there for breakfast.   However, it is discovered that it was not actually Rickie but that a local road department work truck had inadvertently dropped a traffic cone in the parking lot

5)  While watching JB Holmes, David Feherty indicates that his slow play is only slightly less exciting to watch than two snails going through a mating dance

4)   In a taped interview, Billy Payne will say something pompous (OK, not hard to make that prediction)

3)  Rory McElroy is seen sending text messages bragging about his newest Ferrari to his mates back home while contending on the back nine on Sunday, but slips to 11th place after one of his friends texts back that a Veryon is still faster and Rory still doesn't have the fastest car in Northern Ireland

2)  Tiger Woods will flirt with the cut line but ultimately squeak through and finish in a tie for 28th

and....

1)  Dustin Johnson finally overcomes his bad luck and mental breakdowns and hold it together to win the Masters by 1 stroke, and his GF, the "two and only" Natalie Gulbis dashes across the 18th green not to give him a hug & a kiss but to actually see what it feels like to stand on an 18th green after winning something important

    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
