OK we all know who the most likely winner is & who the other obvious candidates are, but whose the one player who strikes you as the E/W value at 50s and above?
I'll start the ball rolling with Freddie Jac. His last 5 PGA starts in reverse are 16, 25, 9, 3 & 7 and he's about to T it up in an event he has a great track record in so hopefully will have another good confidence boosting week. More significantly to me his last 7 starts in Majors over past 2yrs are 36, 54, 15, 19 [last yrs Masters], M/C, 16 & 14, showing that he is comfortable in the majors as well as having the obvious short game skills required for Augusta.
The 150s or 125s if you prefer top 6 e/w strike me as great e/w value.

Keegan Bradley
10 starts, 9 cuts made. 7 of those are Top 25 finishes, 5 are Top 10's. Also makes all the trends, such as making the cut last year, finishing inside Top 25 of previous years PGA Championship, is ranked inside Top 60 in driving distance. 6th in scoring average this season, 4th in par 5 biride or better, 12th in scrambling. |

good pick with keegan, but i doubt he wont be 50/1 and over before it starts

Done your homework KangaMick!!
Hate to have money on the guy at the Masters though,comes across as very nervy on every shot.Highly overrated is my take on the lad,handed that PGA title.Will be his only major to win. |

I'm going to throw another Swede in to the mix, Peter Hanson. 3 top 10s in last 6 majors including 3rd in last years Masters. A model of consistency again this yr & IMO a major winner waiting to happen.
Always underrated by bookies & currently available at 80s E/W top 6. I can't see any logical reason why Poulter & Fowler are 30 points approx shorter than him to name but two. |
|
By:
Hanson a good pick. Never liked him but he turns up and often grabs the top nationals markets/Euro

By:
Nick Watney for me 55 with some bookies (though 85 on here).
Been playing decent steady golf this year (just one missed cut), no missed cuts and 3 top 20 finishes at Augusta in 5 attempts (would have been 4 top 20's but for a bad 4th round last year). |
|
By:
Furyk seems to be in good form 110s
 Not a fan of him however  |
|
By:
My longshot is Ernie Els. 170/1 on here.
Will be annoyed at not getting an invite last year. Proved the point by going on to win the Open. Knows the course very well indeed. REckon he could be a suprise package |

By:
Stenson seems to be coming back into form this year, i think his game suits Augusta, he might go close.

Any South African player. All been playing well so far this year.

Snedeker 43s, also like Bradley& Stricker.

Lee Westwood to finally break the hoodoo for me.
Good signs in recent weeks and has a fair record at Augusta. |
|
By:
How about Day and Coelsarts.

By:
Colsaerts huge price obviously a huge hitter but can control it which will help him greatly, and if he gets his putting game together like in the ryder cup he will be there come Sunday

Kevin Streelman.
Very impressive when he won at Tampa Bay. Drives it well and a decent putter. |
|
By:
KJ Choi - decent course record and may be coming in to a bit of form. 80s-90s depending on the bookie.

Garrigus:
Stats = 4th in distance (3rd LY) - 31st GIR (14th LY). 7 out of 8 cuts TY. $3M LY Earnings. Putting & Accuracy big probs but @ 200's plus = E/W value. |

How the f**k did Nick Watney manage a 78 on Thursday.
 If he'd just have shot a level par 72 (which would still have been disappointing) he'd now be leading. |
