Rory deserves to be the odds-on favorite. Spieth at 16-1 is interesting. His form is not good right now, but if anyone can flip a switch and play this golf course well, it's him.

Love Fleetwood at 25-1. Also love Sneds at 75-1 to contend. Love Charley Hoffman to post a great number on Thursday or Friday and implode, per usual.

As long as it isn’t this weirdo again.

Love Koepka at 20/1. Still cannot believe he dropped over 20 pounds for the ESPN thing after the year he had last year. That is astoundingly stupid to me.
As goofy as it sounds, there's some value on Tiger at 16/1.

 

[Michael_ Gee]

It seems to me there are some good value bets at 35-1. Bubba Watson plays in direct proportion to how well he likes a course, and he sure likes this one. Kuchar and Finau are attractive flutters, too.

 

[DanOregon]

justin harding is a steal at 350/1 - he's third on the European Tour.

I noticed Bubba too. I kept scrolling down and down thinking "Where the hell is BW?"
35/1 is a bargain price for him.
If Finau plays the Par 3 and hits a hole-in-one, you can damn well bet he will be walking or crawling to the hole instead of the hideous ankle from last year.

 

[Chef2]

I'll also take a bite of the apple at Woodland at 80/1.

A friend was in Vegas six weeks ago and texted an odds sheet, I told him to put $10 on Kisner for me at 100-1. The fact that he's 65-1 now makes me feel like a sharp.

How much value can I sell you at 16-1?

Good bet.

 

[TigerVols]

Koep + Sneds are my picks.

 

[Deskgrunt50]

Definitely like Fleetwood. Especially at those odds. But feel like it’s gonna be Rory.

Hadn’t heard the Koepka weight thing. Colossally bad move.

 

[qtlaw]

Don’t sleep on Cameron Smith. Young dude, 5th last year, been playing well and a good putter.

I root for history, T Watson in 09, so I want Rory at Augusta and Speith at PGA.

 

[heyabbott]

slightly off topic. My brother is going as a 'patron'. Whats the one souvenir of the Masters you would want from the gift shop? Hat, 3/4 zip, polo?

 

[Cosmo]

A few of my coworkers have gone in recent years, and the 3/4 zip is pretty nice. Not cheap, but nice.

 

[Moderator1]

So the food there is a bargain and the merch is outlandish, right? Did I see $130 for a shirt? That's almost what I paid for my tux

Dr. Phil special one day. Both families. Looking forward to it.

It'll happen after his wife sucks him dry and leaves him.

Coffee mug.

Clothes fade or wear out, umbrellas can break or walk away, hats...meh.

I have mugs from the 80s that I still use.

But that's a nice parting gift.
