Spring has sprung, and the Masters is here. A field of 98 players will congregate at Augusta National this week for the first men's major of the year.
Bubba Watson is defending champion, trying to back up a second even-numbered-year win with a third and become just the fourth player to win consecutive green jackets. However, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth, Dustin Johnson and Jimmy Walker are among those playing well enough to give Watson a run for the money.
McIlroy comes in as the 11-to-2 favorite, a little worse than in recent weeks. Jordan Spieth, fresh off a playoff loss at the Shell Houston Open, is now in at 8-to-1 instead of 10-t0-1. And suckers from around the world think Tiger Woods will win the Masters and have taken the line down from 50-to-1 to a preposterous 33-to-1.
