Rory is the flawless competitor to capitalize on these conditions and there’s no denying his form in weather soaked Major Championships…2011 US Open, he won it. 2012 US PGA Championship, he won it. 2014 Open Championship, he won it. 2014 US PGA Championship, yeah you guessed it, he won that as well. Jason Day at +2000 is really good value to win the 2017 Masters. She was coughing up blood for three months without telling me.

Back in December, when Spieth returned to Augusta National for the first time since that fateful day to play a round with friends, he was thinking about what happened on the last day of the Masters.

Jason Day is still a really good golfer. Henley thus has a previously unscheduled trip to Augusta National in Georgia this week for the Masters, which is essentially the Super Bowl of golf in terms of prop options available. Danny Willett is the defending champion.

He still tied for fourth, his best finish ever, and it was enough for him to at least see that a green jacket was within reach.

“If I can continue to do that here this week, a lot of birdies, maybe a couple eagles in there, that’s going to be something that’s going to be very good”. But as much as I like those, I can’t look past Bill Haas in this spot. I’ve just gotten stronger since then and I’ve started to get up on the ball and speeds are just getting faster. “We’re all going to go some time”.

“It’s a place, I love and a place that’s hard to sit back and watch if you’ve been there and played well there”.

“He’s a guy that you know that when you’re paired up, he’s been there and you don’t feel like you have that major championship-winning edge”. It’s just something you have to deal with.

Playing with Jordan Spieth in the third round previous year, McIlroy signed for a disastrous 77 which all but ended his chances. It’s such a fun week in Napa, with all the great food and the wine.

Justin Thomas is slight in stature but huge in driving distance, an odd combination that has produced impressive form and a chance for even greater success at the Masters.

“I feel like I’ve been working at it, on and off the course”. However, he’s solid in green in regulation and finished T10 at the 2016 PGA championship, so perhaps the pressure of a major isn’t a factor. If I want to win here, everything is going to have to go well for me. He postponed his honeymoon to play at Augusta. Still, have to feel for those with practice round badges that got just hours in the Promised Land.

“I don’t think much about age right now”, Mickelson said.

Day admitted the recent difficulties faced by his family have made it tough for him to ensure he is in top form for the Masters – where his best finish is joint-second in 2011 – but suggested the positive news has quickly impacted his game.

“It gets me excited to think about winning and accomplishing one of my life goals, but with that said I can’t get too far ahead of myself”.

Meanwhile, it will be an interesting opening round for Day, as he tees up alongside one of the most vocal critics of his alleged slow play.

“But I expect to be able to get out there and play really well. Try to slow down and enjoy”.
