2016 Masters Prediction: Day, Jordan and Rory

[Scotsclaff]

I voted for Spieth because of his present form.

Too early to call this one though.

We could definitely throw Rickie,Scott,Bubba and DJ into the mix.

If Tiger stays healthy, and is able to get rounds in, he can never be counted out at Augusta. That's the one course he can shoot under par in his sleep

He better hope Spieth and Rory have off weeks. I think Tiger will regain something close to his 2013 form, but even that is not at the level of Jordan and Rory....more so Jordan right now.

I voted Spieth, with Day just behind IMO. I'm still not convinced Rory is comfortable at Augusta. His talent allows him to compete there but he'll need his putting to show up in a big way which it hasn't so far.

I think he got comfortable those last two days. Something clicked on that back 9 Friday. He played the last 45 holes in 14-under par. I thought coming in rusty hurt him more than anything and was the reason he got off to a bad start

I will not take your advice, thank you.

In the minority here, I'm going to go with Jason Day. I think he'll have a top five. Spieth with a top ten, Rory with a top 25. Yall heard it here first ;-).

[David in FL]

Rory.

Jordan has an exceptional record at the Masters.  Of course, he's only played the Masters twice so far but he was T2 (after holding the lead for awhile) in 2014 and won the thing in 2015.  Not bad.  Something about Augusta seems to suit Spieth, so I wouldn't be surprised if he wins again.  Wouldn't THAT be something!!

Rory. He's the best. And should be motivated to prove it, again.

I expect him to have a really good 2016.

 

[Big Lex]

i think Spieth is the safest bet because he is the best putter in the world right now.

[jbishop15]

I'm going with Rory.

He won 5 times in 2013, I think he would be right there with the best young guns out there if he regained that form, I believe Tiger has one more surge of great playing in him, I guess the biggest question is how long can he maintain a high level in his 40's.
