It's this week! Came around quick for me.
Anyone got any thoughts? I'm ashamed to say I think it has to be Tiger but at 2.58 on BF he's not very backable.
There's a golf website that provides loads of info isn't there? I'm sure it has a subscription service too, does anyone know it? Really, I'm looking for info on guys like Shaun Micheel - at 670.0, that's the kinda sneeky odds I'm after for this. You know someone will be in the top 5 that is about 500/1! It's getting them that's the hard bit.

i just go to www.pgatour.com for all my stats etc, not really sure they have a subscription service apart from the tourcast feature which follows the players play by play (but thats while the tourney is in progress rather than in the build up). I agree normally about looking for the value in a regular pgatour event - Tommy Armour III this weekend finished 4th alone at odds of 750/1, i know because i saw them and though "wow, that could be value" before backing Daniel Chopra each way  Unfortunately at the Masters it's very unusual to get a rank outsider inside the top 5 - more often than not the top spots are filled by the big names as this ends up being one of the true tests of golf. Thankfully because of the form of a certain Mr Woods we are getting a good few points extra to the prices of everyone else. I'm going for Els 19/1, Stenson 38/1 and for a bit of value Weir 180/1.

i won quite a few bob on tiger last week at 5-2 what a great price also had Adam Scott at 10s. I make more from golf betting than i do from poker lol.
I got Tiger for the masters before last week at a gd price as he played poorly the week before. His all round game is just about near perfection. His putting last week was exemperely.
I also have luke donald as top european and ew. Due a big performance from him in a major

Although Tiger is no doubt a worthy favourite, 7/4 is of no interest to me.
My modus operandum is to go for value outsiders and trade(hopefully) in running to green out.
I'm on Stricker @ 325(tipped by Chapman and now 220ish), Choi @ 220, Baddeley @ 180, Casey @ 55, Poulter @ 300 and D.Howell @ 230.
Hoping to get a decent run out of a couple of them at least, I love The Masters.

I placed a small wager late last night when not feeling any pain on what I thought was Rich Beem. It turns out that I actually placed £3 on Tim Herron @1000  Wouldn't it be amusing if he won, drinks for all at BB4 if he does
