Threw a flyer on Senden and Walker to win Augusta before the tourney...How good are my chances going into moving day??
Don't follow golf, but one way to answer questions like this is to check odds (then adjust of course for vig to get a rough estimate, which is pretty much all anyone can give you anyway aside from some additional personal opinion).
Bubba has improved immensely in the needed areas for another jacket. ON THE GREEN. We all know he is a bit of a childish prick/head case at times (as most pga players are) which is the last thing needed at this course as each shot is that important but with his improvement over the last year and his experience already winning a jacket IMO he continues with the lead and rolls on to another one. he has every advantage in the world to do so and again with the concrete greens, his putting will be the major difference... no pun.
What I find amazing is considering how tough the greens are at Augusta so many guys known for there sketchy putting over the years have have won it.......Bubba, Cabrera, Vijay, Scott.............
bubba doing just fine fellas (some jitters of course) and still retains the lead. let the guy play his round for the love of god . even par is a great round today for him if that's where he ends up.
i don't think any number behind is out of it. if day or mcilroy shoot a 64,65 they can win in a playoff. but, i don't see it. i think rose or kooch win it, whoever makes the pars at the tough holes when others are making bogeys. whichever of those 2 gets hot with the putter. peace. gl, i'm off to breakfast
comes down to bubba and fowler IMO. GL today with your plays all. as much as I'd like to see a 20 year old take home the jacket and it appears the future is bright for many other opportunities, I see Spieth fading.

At Augusta putting brings home the jacket. Bubba showed yesterday his true putting stroke which will not be good enough to win another. I think spieth is putting extremely well and has been making the smart decisions to avoid big blow up holes.
I got kuchar, spieth or fowler taking it home in that order. Love to see Jimenez in the mix but guessing he will have a blow up hole down the stretch.
Going to be a great final round today boys, buckle up!

Spieth and Bubba both averaging 1.69 putts this week, both have 2 3-putts, and both top 10 in putts this year,.
For all the talk about Bubba's nerves, he missed only one fairway yesterday and made two huge putts on 17 and 18. Yeah, he had a bad stretch, but so does everyone at some point in 3 days. I think he plays just fine today. Whether or not it's enough to win, we'll see, but I expect a solid round. Everybody is seemingly forgetting that he's got a green jacket and the course suits him very well.
Back 9 at Augusta is one of my favorite things in all of sports. Let's hope it's a great one.

Rooting for
Spieth
Couples
Walker
Langer
One of those guys winning would be ok with me.
Couples over streelman
Stadler over Henley.
played that too
Agree............If I was Bubba's caddy would go out there with ear plugs today.
This babies temper tantrums will be on full display.
Bubba meltdown has begun back to back bogeys and he is about to explode.
Spieth over Watson +120
Stricker O72.5 -115
Poulter O72 -120
Olazabal O73.5 -115
I wouldn't mind if Kuchar or Westwood won.
What do you think is the number thats too far back? Even? One Under?
Spieth wins it Bubba not in top 5
Spieth +25 over bubba
Day even over Scott
Stadler -25 over steelmam
Fowler +15 over kucher
Sorry if those are not accurate lines, that's what my locals have.
GL should be fun
Actually went 2 units on spieth over Watson.

That drive on 13 and the 248 yard iron on the Par 3 just incredible.
Very deserving.
