That's not a player who blows up and flames out at Augusta..
My man Phily Mick. gotta represent.
Robert Allenby
Sergio Garcia. If he can make some putts!!
Ernie Els
Ryuji Imada

-I think this new McIlroy will make a nice showing. I'm still a hater because he's my age and being called out as worlds next numero uno, lucky punk.
-And as much as I like Tiger, I don't think he'll get top five, probably top ten(who am I kidding, he'll probably win)

driver- X460 tour 9.5 Aldila NVS 75
irons- X-forged 3-PW TT BlackGold stiff
wedges- x-tour vintage 52, 56, 60
hybrid- FT-hybrid #2 17* putter- Sophia 33" "If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough."_Mario Andretti

My top 5 picks for now:

1. Tiger Woods
2. Geoff Ogilvy
3. Padraig Harrington
4. Phil Mickelson
5. Sergio Garcia

I believe that Harrington will drop off the map for the majors. I like Mickelson, but he has struggled with the game between the ears. McIlroy would be a fantastic story that I would love to see win the Masters, but I would put him at the top of my list for the PGA Championship at the end of the year. Sergio is also a favorite, but I just do not think that he is good enough to win but top 10, yes. I would love to see Boo, K.J, Rory, or A.K. win.

Winners.
1. Singh - This guy still win majors
2. Villegas - Great player who is getting better and better
3. Tiger - Has the skills, plays well in clutch situations. Made for majors.

Dark horses.
1. Nick Watney - has skills and is hot, could get hotter.
2. Ben Crane - I think he could be one the top golfers in the next 5 years.
3. Rory McIlroy - Skills, skills, skills, but I choke on a putt for 20 bucks, try putting a million and a green jacket on the line and...

1. Tiger Woods
2. Not Phil Mikkelsen

And now the long shots:

3. KJ Choi
4. Adam Scott
5. Padraig Harrington

We do need a tournament with Tiger and Phil in the same final group. But, Phil just doesn't hold up his end of the bargain.

1. Tiger Woods

I would hardly call Padraig Harrington a long shot...

After seeing Tiger yesterday at Bay Hill, I have to assume he's winning this one.

I'm with Mr. Eagle... the new question for this thread should be who's going to be runner up - which could be a ways behind Tiger.

I got JM Singh, Tiger, Zach Johnson, P. Harrington, and Nick Watney in my fav 5.
THE WEAPONS CACHE..

Titleist 909 D2 9.5 Degree Driver| Titleist 906f4 13.5 degree 3-Wood | Titleist 909 17 & 21 degree hybrid | Titleist AP2 irons
Titleist Vokey Wedges - 52 & 58 | Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 Putter | ProV1 Ball

1) Tiger
2) Phil
3) Sergio
4) Immelman
5) Ogilvy
6) Harrington
7) Els
8) O'hair
9) Cink
10) Weir

Top 10 but i think phil and Tiger will battle out for the win.

After seeing Tiger yesterday at Bay Hill, I have to assume he's winning this one.

You guys forget that Tiger won at Bay Hill last year and didn't win the Masters. And he hasn't won the Masters since 2005, so he's hardly the shoe-in you suggest.

Driver: Ping I20 9.5*
Woods/Hybrids: Cobra AMP 3W and 3 HY

Irons: Cobra AMP 4-GW

Wedges: Callaway Forged Copper 56* and 60*

Putters: Scotty Cameron  35" (Several of the flow neck blade variety)

Ball: Bridgestone B330-RX and Srixon Z-Star

Bag: Nike Performance Carry


I can honestly think that i think sergio will win his first major come this april!

I can honestly thing that I think Sergio will not even come close at Augusta. Since there already is a thread just like this one, I'll repeat my choices (and add 2)

1) Tiger 2) C. Villegas 3) Ogilvy 4) Mickelson 5) Jeev M. Singh - my dark horse

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
