Five Must-Watch Groups
Tiger Woods, Luke Donald, Scottย Piercy
Itโs hard to believe Tiger last donned the green jacket way back in 2005. However, it appears as though the gap between Tiger and the field is finally back. Heโs won three of the five events he's entered this year and sits atop the world rankings.
Luke Donald is no stranger to being No. 1 in the world either, although he is a stranger to major championship success. Donaldโs best result at a major is a tie for third at the 2005 Masters and 2006 PGA Championship. Is this his year?
Watch out for Masters rookie Scott Piercy, who at 34 years old, will look to take advantage of a great opportunity.
Jason Day, Rickie Fowler, Padraig Harrington
With two rising stars and a 41-year-old three-time major winner, this will be an entertaining group to watch.
Australian Jason Day has been average thus far this year and will look to replicate the success he had at the 2011 Masters when he finished tied for second. Fowler was in contention on Sunday at the Arnold Palmer Invitationalย and is currently in the Top 25 in putting average. Look for Fowler to have one of his strongest performances yet at a major. Harrington comes in having played well at the Texas Open last week.
Angel Cabrera, Sergio Garcia, Adam Scott
2009 champion Angel Cabrera always seems to find himself near the top of the leaderboard at one point or another at the Masters.
While Garcia, age 33 and Scott, age 32 are two of the best on tour who have yet to win a major. They haveย both come close on a number of occasions, together racking up eight top-three finishes at majors.
This is a group of experienced golfers who know their way around the course and should expect to be in the hunt on Sunday, as they were last year.
Phil Mickelson, Louisย Oosthuizen, Martinย Kaymer
Here we have three golfers who have won at least one major.
Mickelson has a couple top-three finishes this year, including a win at the Phoenix Open where he posted in an impressive -28. It looks as though "Lefty" still has a lot left in the tank at 42 years old, as he searches for his fourth green jacket.
Oosthuizen came up just short last year, losing to Watson in a playoff, despite recording a double eagle in the final round. Oosthuizen is coming off a strong performance as the Houston Open where he shot a -11.
Kaymer is very much an underdog. He has struggled to find his game of late and has only made the cut once at Augusta, finishing in a tie for 44th.
Roryย McIlroy, Keeganย Bradley, Freddie Jacobson
Not much needs to be said about McIlroy, as his struggles early on this year were well documented. The 23-year-old was back in form last week at the Texas Open, however, where he finished in second place.
Keegan Bradley is fun to watch and has been playing some of the best golf of his career lately. He already has five top-10 finishes this year and is ninthย on Tour in driving distance.
While McIlroy and Bradley can pound the ball down the fairway, Jacobsonโs best asset is his putting. The 38-year-old played well in his last two tournaments and could help make this the lowest scoring group heading into the weekend. ย
