I wouldn't mind seeing him win the fifth of his eventual ten jackets. Every time he wins one it is like watching the 2007 version of a Jones and a Hagen combined into one dynamo. Whew!

I could have easily listed guys like Lefty, CHIII, Vijay, etc., but the article would have taken me forever to write. Right now, I don't believe Phil has a better shot to win The Masters than Woods, Els, or Stenson. He hasn't shown me anything since the Match Play Championship that warrants him being above those guys on the "contenders" list. I have nothing against Phil. I just don't think he is playing well enough right now going into Augusta. I only listed three for a reason.

Vijay will get off to a good start, but lose it on Saturday and Sunday. Darren Clark is going to end with a top-10 finish. Camilo is a top 5.

He is going to spend two weeks prepping at Augusta and tuning his equipment for his swing and the course. He has won twice in three years. And he doesn't rate a contender listing. Are you mad at him or something? I agree with Patrick, though I am a huge Phil fan. He is going to spend two weeks prepping at Augusta and tuning his equipment for his swing and the course.

I don't really know his record at Augusta but he has been playing some pretty good golf this year. What about CH III?
