Masters 2014

[Hibs90]

Who's everyone going for then?

Jason Day/ McIlroy/ Dustin Johnson for me, although Johnson currently making a mess in Texas!

Also gutted that Tiger isn't playing to be honest.

[BroxburnHibee]

Not gutted about Tiger at all tbh.

Fancy Rory to do it this year.

[Golden Bear]

I know someone who is going and I've made a special request for a Masters polo shirt - in green of course!

[Golden Bear]

Get your money on Jason Day - I've a feeling that this will be his year.

[Allant1981]

Just cause he is a bathgate lad ill have to go for stevie g

[Hank Schrader]

I reckon Adam Scott will defend his title. He has been a standout performer in the majors in recent years, if he putts well he will come close.

Jason Day, good shout but depends on his thumb and back injuries. He says he is fit and raring to go so hopefully he has put that behind him. Another star performer in the majors.

Matt Kuchar played well last week and will be in the mix too.

Colin Hendry lookalike Brandt Snedeker likes the Masters, hes had an average year so far but wouldn't put it past him to be a contender this week.

A debutant hasn't won at Augusta since Fuzzy Zoeller in 1979, could Jordan Spieth bust that particular stat this year? Guy is a class act, might be worth an each way bet.

And finally, will someone finally win the Par 3 competition and Green Jacket in the same year? :greengrin

A girl at my work won first prize at our suppliers day draw the other week, then had the winner in the sweep for the grand national.

I took the top 60 players (by odds on Skybet) and put them in a random list in Excel, asked her to pick three numbers.

She picked 24, 5 and 18.

24 - Adam Scott
5 - Brendon De Jonge
18 - Jason Day

Thats where my money is going. Come on Brendon De Jonge!

[frazeHFC]

Stenson and Day are who i'm going with.

[Godsahibby]

Looked at mostly each way bets.

Both Gary Woodland and Patrick Reed are young and have been playing well, both with high decent odds and experience of Augusta. Taken them each way.

Big fan of Sneds, and again he has shown he knows his way round the course.

Also looked at Jamie Donaldson to finish the top ranked European

Kaymer as well at 100/1 each way

[Golden Bear]

Big Phil (14/1), Jason Day (16/1), and probably the best young player on the PGA tour - Jordan Speith (40/1)

As ever, I'm really looking forward to the TV coverage of what is arguably the best Major of the year.

[easty]

just for a bit of interest today I've went for a match betting acca

Ryan Moore v Gary Woodland @ 4/5
Matt Kuchar v Sergio Garcia @ 5/6
Harris English v Rickie Fowler @ 5/6
Jordan Spieth v Jason Dufner @ 5/6
Bill Haas v Webb Simpson @ 5/6
Brandt Snedeker v Charl Schwartzel @ 5/6
Ernie Els v Trevor Immelman @ evens
Jim Furyk v Jimmy Walker @ 5/6

[easty]

Singles on Haas (80/1), Speith (50/1) and De Jong (250/1) as well.

[Bighoose]

£5 E/W on -

16/1 Jason Day
33/1 Charl Swartzel
60/1 Angel Cabrera (Never seems to play but always turns up in the Masters)
100/1 Victor Dubisson

Plus £10 E/W on Adam Scott (10/1) from a couple of weeks back when I was drunk.

Field is wide open tho.

[frazeHFC]

Singles on Haas (80/1), Speith (50/1) and De Jong (250/1) as well.


I think he'll get top debutant, done well this year. :agree:
Haymaker agrees.

[silverhibee]

I like watching the golf.

@some time this week.

Fek knows what its all about but summat to do with the chatroom.

[frazeHFC]

Poor start for Zach Johnson, know a few who were backing him, still a long way to go but not a great first round! Nice start for Stephen Gallacher!

Nah it's just a way of tagging someone in your post, therefore notifying them. Eg Haymaker

It's not right.

[lugz]

Would like to see Bubba win it again, one of the great characters in golf at the moment.

[heretoday]

I won a packet on Bubba two years ago. Why I didn't back him this time I'll never know.

I have Furyk at 80/1 and Zach Johnson at 33/1. Another twenty quid down the drain.

Personally, I think Oosty looks good this time. Great player.

[Golden Bear]

For whatever reason the Tournament has still to come to life and TV coverage has all been a bit flat so far. Hopefully the Beeb will provide the necessary spark over the weekend.

I was the same and backed him this year at 25s for that reason.....if only I wagered more instead of putting it on duffner :rolleyes:

[Hibs90]

Anyone but Watson for me, have a strange dislike for him. Would like to see Speoth win, dunno whether he has the mental game though

[heretoday]

I'm beginning to think my Furyk hunch could be a winner. They never mention him much because he's an unglamorous type but he just keeps plugging away.

[BroxburnHibee]

Certainly hotting up now - love it

"Hotting up" is the phase I hate most in British English. It sounds like a mistake someone learning English as a second language would make.

My money was on Kuchar, and I still think he looks good going into today. I still remember seeing him and Nicklaus play in 98.

I do apologise profusely for hurting your feelings so much :greengrin

My bad is the best example of that, makes no sense whatsoever.

[Golden Bear]

Looking forward to tonight's final round. It's all to play for and I'll be rooting for young Jordan Spieth simply because I've a fiver on him to win at 40/1.

Great start for Spieth. I got him at 55/1 on Thursday. Fingers crossed!

[NYHibby]

They keep saying hotting up. It's driving me nuts. I switched to the Amen corner feed on the red button to avoid it.

[Pete]

What a shot by kuchar!

[Golden Bear]

Bubba looking like the clear favourite right now. A 366 yard drive at the thirteenth - ridiculous!!

[LALthehibeeGAL]

I had Jiminez at 150/1 (okay only £1 e.w but still)

Lal:wink:
