Zach Johnson won it and he's one of the smallest hitters on tour. The winning total that year was very high at +1, having distance does give you a massive advantage and being able to shape the ball. Fancy Dustin myself.

Can't help remembering a recent journo's quote re: Dustin - "He's so dense, light bends around him."

Love the masters. The sight of the Azeleas and Magnolias always heralds the start of the summer to me. I even planted a Magnolia tree thing in my driveway, and it flowers just in time for the Masters every year

Not been following the golf at all this year so far, but for the craic I have a fiver each way on Bubba Watson and Keegan Bradley

One of the coldest masters in history and the big hitters were reined in that year. Leveled it up for Zach Johnson and his wedge work and short game got him home.

I still took a slice of him at 30-1 this year though.

I've nearly everyone backed except Adam Scott and Phil!

AZ there's a masters app I use for the iPhone. Not sure if it's licensed in Europe or not but it has a few video holes on it

Is that the official one? Yeah, I have that if so, but I was hoping someone would be doing the early rounds on radio.

Try the tunein radio app you might find a station covering it.

Yeah it was bit of a freak year if you look at other winning totals. Green in regulation stat is probably the biggest factor in winning, then scrambling.

[leaveherinsir]

small each way bets on Sergio. Day. Sneedeker. Stricker. Thus 3 of them will miss the cut and the other (Garcia) will lead after 3 rounds only to finish with an 80 and in a tie for 7th, rendering Paddy Power £20 richer and my wallet £20 lighter.
Great quote from Lawerence Donegan on the radio last night." A great tournament on a great course hosted by a terrible golf club" . Anyone looking for an alternative way to follow it on twitter check out his @ByTheMinGolf account.
