Good discussion guys, thanks! It would be cool if we could do a TS Masters meet-up one year. I've never attended, but would love to go. So excited for Masters week!

A few updates:

Storms ripped through Augusta area on Tues and knocked down one of the famous trees along Magnolia Lane. Course is cleaned up now. Great weather on Wednesday for Par 3 contest.

Tiger says he's ready. Paired with Graeme McDowell on Thurs.

Phil going to use 2 drivers. Phil is paired with Geoff Ogilvy on Thurs.

Between them, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson have won the Masters in six of the last 10 years.

Seriously! Doesn't get much better. And I like your predictions. You just named off most of the guys I follow, plus AK (Kim). Love the crop of young talent in the PGA right now. I watched Rors win at Quail Hollow in person last year. The crowd was deafening loud when he dropped the last putt. I can only imagine how special The Master is.

My old roomate is a Golf Pro and he has told me how awesome Quail Hollow is. I bet that was a sight to see! Have you ever been to The Master's? It is truly an experience you will remember. I suggest trying to make it one year. It is golf "Heaven" there.

I took my wife to Quail Hollow last year and if was her first time seeing PGA live. Now she's hooked! I haven't been to Augusta to see The Masters live. It's been a life long dream. I look forward to it, and definitely plan on attending.

Q H is a great track, and some people have said it reminds them of Augusta National. Even the long driveway that pulls up to the clubhouse. It's a beautiful piece of property. I live down the street.

As the favorite I'd say Phil does at least stand a chance. There's so many good players right now and no dominating player the field's wide open this year. I'm not making any predictions. Martin Kaymar's swing is awesome though. Poulter doesn't even give Tiger a chance. I tend to agree. In his press conference the other day he flat out said he can't get back to his old swing because it puts too much pressure on his knee. It would be very surprising if he's able to overcome his swing difficulties at this point under the pressure of a major.
