I personally expect to see Kuchar and English win this event. They play solid golf consistently, but if any of these other teams like the two Brits get hot...look out!

Edit: I just had a thought, could you imagine an alternate shot with Dustin Johnson driving and Dufner hitting the approach shots the whole time? :blink:

Tripp I on the golf channel picked D.J. and Dufner to win it. They were my pick also, but I haven't been doing to well in picking winners lately..LOL

I think buddies tend to play together.  I don't think anyone actually "picks" the teams, think it's more like "who would you like to play with?" and I'm sure Norman helps finalize the pairings.

    • Day 55: 2026.03.04 Backswing work, trying to pull everything together, slowly at first.
    • Day 519 - 2026-03-04 Got some work in before lessons. Mostly downswing. My backswing is good.
    • Yeah I’ve tried it but I don’t feel very comfortable doing it like that. Isn’t there like a website where I can do it so it’s safer?? I got scammed one time on FBM so I don’t trust it.
    • Day 200 3-4 Wider back swing, arms up a bit higher, and added in some flow work to start getting a since of a full swing. Still focusing on arching wrist through downswing. 
    • It's going to be very difficult for the 2026 Masters to match the 2025 edition for storyline. I honestly don't know that anyone else in the field could match the story of Rory finally winning after so many years and the blow ups over the years, not to mention the career slam being completed. No one this year that I can think of is remotely close to that kind of story. Combine that with the attempts at blow ups last year (Double on the 1st, 13, 18 on first try) and the stunningly good shots that he hit in the final round (7, 15, 17, 18 on second try).  Full gamut: https://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/2025-04-13/17445961638226475/every_single_shot_from_rory_mcilroys_final_round.html
