US Masters contenders
It's the weekend that always makes me think that spring is here. Watching the climax to a great weekends golfing action on the world best golf course. And the worlds best golfers will all be trying to win the coverted green jacket.
After having a brief look at the odds this morning and the bookmakers have made Tiger Woods 9/2 and Rory McIlroy 6/1 the clear favourites. However I flicked further down the list and have picked out a few decent worthy bets. However shop around for where the best place to put your bet on is as some outlets only offer 4th place and ties but I know Paddy Power offer as far down as 6th.
Luke Donald is 14/1 and a worthwhile £2 each way bet.
The rest of the golfers names I'll list are all worth a £1 each way.
Lee Westwood is 20/1
Hunter Mahan is 28/1
Keegan Bradley is 30/1
Jason Day is 40/1
Sergio Garcia and Dustin Johnson are both 50/1
Webb Simpson, Graeme McDowell and KJ Choi are all 66/1
Martin Kaymer is 70/1
Angel Cabrera is 80/1
Rickie Fowler is 100/1
Some surprising odds see Paul Casey and Y E Yang at 125/1 and Stewart Cink at 200/1 and Miguel Angel Jimenez 250/1
Also it seems at Augusta a former champ always seems to feature.
So the likes of Fred Couples are a mere 125/1, Vijay Singh 200/1 and Jose Maria Olazábal 400/1
So where will my money be going this weekend.
McIlroy could be worth £5 to win and I hope he does but I usually pick out 5 golfers further down the field and do them £1 each way making an weekends pleasurable golf with a minor £10 outlay.
I think Jason Day, Dustin Johnson, KJ Choi, Hunter Mahan and an outsider paul Casey could be the ones I'd go with.
