I like the picks Brotherwo.
My picks are:
Sergio Garcia. +$7000
Steve Marino. 10,000
Ricky Barnes, Ross Fisher, and Jason Day +12,000

All long shots, but maybe ill get lucky. Being a Tiger homer, I may have to cave in and bet him as well. He will at least be in the mix come Sunday

Crane did play rather well last year at Augusta all thing's considered. I think now he might have the confidence to be aggresive when the situation is waranted, where he may have been hesitant in the past, now that he has played Augusta with some positive results. Glover has the ability and skill but still needs to have that one stellar round that finally gets the "group of bad holes that ruins your score" jinx at Augusta off his back. Mickelson is extremely focused right now as demostrated by his performance at Houston yesterday, and will be primed to make a run for another green jacket. Mickelson at +500 or so is one of the most logic wagers on the board from my chair. Not expecting "miracle shots" again from him this go round, but his experience and methodical approach to the course should enable him to be among the leaders once again. I have more confidence in Mickelson, once and if he takes the lead, to not implode as others might do under the extreme pressure of the back nine on Sunday trying to bring the tournament home.

Mike Weir and Jim Furyk have exceptional short games. They do give up some yardage to the big hitters off the tee. However I still like the discipline and finesse they can bring to the tournament trying to negotiate the treacherous greens at Augusta. The big hitters always have the possibilty of shanking one left or right having to play out of trouble. Weir and Furyk, with a more moderate approach, will play Tee to Green with the chance of fewer errors in the fairway. Not that this duo is not above making bad shots, however I would not classify them as "Grip It and Rip It " type players. Once in position to score this duo has the short game to climb steadily up the leaderboard.

Are you serious about Mike Weir? Have you not followed golf this year? :ohno:

Guy has been seriously injured, just had surgery, can breakly break 80.. and is going through a swing change. Good luck on that one.

Sorrry did not know Weir had surgery. Was just trying to focus on the short game guys. Scratch Weir.

one other future play to consider Jerry Kelly +39000 (ive added it)

The guy has had past success at Augusta and he's been playing very well this year. Great price for Kelly


Weir is awful, that is why he's matched against Anders Hansen, both guys I wanted to fade but it's tough to do so when they're matched against one another

It seems that distance will play a factor this year, based off all the interviews.

I like Nick Watney, Lee Westwood, Graeme and obviously Phil.

Good luck.
