Phil is at 10/1? Wow, that's pretty good. If I was desperate to 10x my money, I would consider that. Think we are due for him or Tiger to win this.

Seriously, he should be 300/1. So many can do well for 3 days, but Sunday at Augusta is a whole different level and there's only a few that can handle that. He has no shot.

Phil maybe. Tiger most likely.

Anthony Kim has a long shot.

Most likely others, not from this country.

No one's pulling for the 3rd leg of a "Paddy Slam?"

Ain't pulling for it, but it's pretty obvious that you'll get 100% from him in majors (you can forget about him trying hard in the other tournaments.)

Would be unreal if he can do it- I think he's playing better than his results suggest!

I'll throw Graeme McDowell into the mixer at a crazy price!

Hard not to root for a guy like Paddy.

My "longshot" pick is Anthony Kim, and that ain't exactly going out on a limb.

2 co-workers and I have an annual Masters contest.

Pick 3 guys not named Tiger and you add up their final positions to see who wins

say 1st 30th and 35th you get 66 points. The person with the lowest points win.

In the lead after day 1 you get -2 points... in lead after day 2 you get -4 points, and in lead after saturday you get -6 points.

I choose Harrington, Kim, and Goosen

Default 5 Players not named Tiger

Geoff Ogilvy - Willing to throw out his final round in Houston on Sunday in pretty brutal conditions. Playing very well this year and hits his irons nice and high.

Steve Stricker - Needs to get out of his own way on Sundays. Would be no surprise to see him play well.

Pat Perez - Returns to Augusta for only the second time. Got his first win at the Hope this year. Should be full of confidence. One of the premier ballstrikers on Tour. If he keeps his head cool and gets his putter hot....watch out.

Nick Watney - Quietly having in very solid year and finished 11th last year in his Masters debut.


Best player nobody has heard of -

Louis Oosthuizen - Another very solid player from South Africa. He is in great early season form, having already posted 5 top 10's on the Euro Tour this year. Could surprise some people in his debut.

Got him in my Masters pool for $5 with a $266 payoff, 63 people took him at this price. 106 took Tiger at $35 for a $158 payoff.

I'll throw in Ian Poulter as a long shot who will be around the leaderboard on the weekend. I'm not sure he can win it.
