We all have our favourites and maybe the young pretender has stolen a few hearts so lets see just who might triumph at the end of the day. The Augusta National Club may seperate the men from the boys on this final day but for now this is how the field looks.
Bubba Watson is 5 under and surely is considered the favourite despite some eratic putting on Saturday. He is such a volatile player that one bad chip, putt or drive could herald a meltdown lets see how he appears today!
Jordan Spieth also 5 under, this 20 year old could be the youngest player to win a major since Tom
Creavy won the PGA Championship at 20 in 1931, he is also only the 5th Rookie to hold the 54 hole lead. Hailing Mr Nicklaus and Mr Crenshaw as his tutors you can only marvel at his confidence on this golfing world stage.
Matt Kuchar 4 under, he came so close the last couple of years with a 3rd place and an 8th place. Last week in Houston at the 18th he needed to hit green from the fairway and a 2 shot putt instead he blew it and hit the water then went on to loose the play off! He will neeed to stay completely focused to pull a win out of the bag!
Jonas Blixt also 4 under with all the rookie talk being about Jordan we are forgetting just how well this first timer has played.His first 2 majors at the end of 2013 saw him 26th and 4th and he ist trying to put Rurope on the map at a Masters.
Miguel Angel Jimanez 3 under. Although he has won 20 times on the European Tour he has never managed a Masters triumph! Although landed himself in the top 10 in 4 of them his huge personality and love of the spot light keeps his profile high.
