Villegas can't putt Lefty. Pretty much a pre-requisite for Augusta. (Watch him win by 3 fucking shots now!)
I fancy Mickelson.

Hi Ryan.
He drives it long and straight which is at least as important as putting at Augusta. He and Garcia are also both streaky putters - frequently average but when they're hot they're very hot...much like Langer, Faldo, Woosnam, O'Meara, Couples, Immelman, and Johnson were when they won it. Villegas really struggled in his first few visits to augusta but I think he's ready to mount a strong challenge.

Sorry to be boring... Tiger.

Hi Lefty, hope all's well.
Word coming out of the practice rounds are that the greens are bikini-waxed. I suspect pin positions will be the usual fucking catastrophe come Sunday too. You're right that he can get on a streak, but a four-day one at augusta? I just don't see it.
I don't like his swing either. But that's a bit of a moot point.
There's value in the Europeans, certainly Poulter and Casey have been doing well of late. If Martin Kaymer or Karlsson can start sinking putts early, then their length off the tie could have them right up there.
Left-handers generally fare well there too.
It's as open a field as it's ever been though.

My money is on Mickelson or Els with a lay of Woods.
Hey Lefty, good to see you back.

Laying Woods seems a popular pastime.

I backed Hunter Mahan at the start at 66/1, still in with a shout 6 shots back. A lot depends on today he'd wanna pull back at lest 3 shots on the leaders over the next 18.
Mickelson and Westwood look very strong though at this stage, I fancy Poulter to slip back

Mickelson leftpeg, told ya.
Looking good.

He's looking good 'tis true, but come on Ryan, Mickelson at Augusta isn't much of a tip is it? What next, Chelsea for the title?
I hope for Westwood's sake Mickelson's great round came yesterday. That eagle-eagle-birdie blitz was amazing.

I have £2 on Phil 😉
Time to retire... Phil wins me £20 🙂
Just used £1.96 of my £20 winnings on a nice pint of Joey Holts. It never tasted sweeter.
