anthony kim could be a real contender- very streaky sort of player and hits it a mile. very well placed.
I'd be very surprised if either Campbell or Perry are there at the end
unless paddy and woods hit at least 67 today its curtains for both unless the wind blows and the course firms up completely.
I'd fancy Hamilton and Kim.

Definitely keep an eye on Anthony Kim. My mate is over at the Masters at the moment and says that Kim was phenomenal in the practice rounds on Monday and Tuesday.

Id keep an eye on Kenny Perry and Angel Cabrera as well.

Kim had 11 birdies yesterday which was a masters record!!
Whats the deal with Mc Ilroy? Is he in or out?

Rory made the cut (just about) and is teeing off on +1.

ONeill · April 11, 2009, 04:15:27 PM

Kenny Perry seems to be the man.

Rory off to a good start got a shot back level at the 8th

What do the golf experts reckon on my punts from before the tournament?

Watney and Villegas...

On the plus side I have finally learnt how to pronounce Villegas' name.

The Paddy Slam is over, a 9 on the second

done and dusted

Villegas (pronounced Vajaygas

) has picked up a couple shots so far... Happy days...

I wonder how the heck Harrington managed to run up a 9 on the par 5 second.
No water on it, perhaps a drive (or two) went out of bounds.

Tiger also had a bad start with a double on the first, but has since got one back at the third.

EDIT: 3 birdies on the front nine for Podge, but a bogey on the 10th. Level par overall. He's actually only 4 or 5 shots behind the main contenders (being positive and assuming Campbell, Perry and Carbrera will come back to the field), so with a round and a half to go, he's still in with a bit of a shout if he can play well.

I agree. He's gonna walk it.

Didn't Harrington actually have the lowest score in the Masters last year when you took out all the par 5s?
He seems to try and force his game too much at times. Dreaming of eagles and taking too many risks.

Hard to say, he's a great man for winning crappy tournaments, but he's been a serial choker in the big tournaments, even as recently as last year I think he blew the player's championship.
Would he be the oldest winner?
Hope Campbell doesn't take it anyway (again he's blown two winning chances in majors).
