    Hi there mr! 
    When I was speaking about the masters to my partner the otherday, I was saying that I felt Bubba Watson was a good choice, as he had won a few years ago and would be a good bet to repeat the achievement - I'd forgotten that he actually won it more recently...IE LAST YEAR!! lol

    Mcilroy will obv be many people's choice but Its a difficult one as Im not too certain he's been playing recently. 

    Another that I think would be a good choice for an E/W punt, Phil Mickelson - The lefties always do well at Augusta, and on his game, Mickelson is barely touchable.

    I also quite fancy a sneaky bet on Jordan Spieth - there seems to be alot of mention on the market for him, and he's been quietly building an impressive CV full of good performances in Big Events - He did well in the ryder cup recently too.

    On side bets, there are quite a good selection of "what if's" to choose from over on S/B, and one I am finding exceptionally tempting would be for "woods to miss the cut!" Another, more sadly, which is also available to chose, would be for Ben Crenshaw to finish last.

    Speaking of Leading Seniors, I can't see how anyone's going to be placing higher up the leader-board than Fred Couples...He always seems to do well at the Masters.

    Hope this helps!

    thanks i done couples as 1st round leader at 100/1 always seems to start quick and in previous years he has been 1st round leader twice before

    If you want to know who the Ambo has gone for then check out his betting website.  His views and bets on there are free for all registered users.  Am not sure if I'm allowed to post a link to it here but it shouldn't be too hard to find :)

    Here's Neil channings tips:

     Here are my picks then...

     

     Dustin Johnson has come back a new man. He's put whatever mystery problems he had behind him and become a father. He hits the ball a long way and he ought to have a better record here. I think the fact he hasn't is more to do with the problems in his life than how much his game suits the course. 18/1 is very fair although I would rather bet win and place on the exchanges than take the 16/1.

     

     Brandt Snedeker we bet for this last year. He has done well here the last couple of years in three of four rounds both times. I'm going to forgive him the odd bad day, look back to his winning form of a few weeks ago and give him a go at a big price that is very close to the Betfair market and offers particular value on the place.

     

     Paul Casey has had a load of problems over the years. His injury issues are behind him and he now lives in the States where he has a baby. Hits it long, will be advantaged if it rains a lot which it might and he hits the right shape of shot. 66/1 offers clear value on the place and not a bad win bet. He's also a great bet at 9/2 or bigger to be Top Englishman, giving us a great chance to be against Luke Donald and a bad favourite in Lee Westwood.

     

     Ryan Palmer hits it hard, draws the ball and has form here. Has recent form and the price of 80/1 is Ok and great on the place compared to the exchange market.

     

     Victor Dubuisson is a big hitter who has done brilliantly on the big stage of the Ryder Cup. He's had a bad year due to illness but that's why we get a big price. 100/1 is slightly lower than the exchange but 25/1 a place makes up for it. I like him also in a weak field for Top Continental European.

     

     Gary Woodland we bet for this last year. He was 100/1 and he did Ok. He's the same price now and he still hits it very hard and is in Ok form. We take a slightly poor win price to get a great place bet here.

     

     Jonas Blixt did amazingly well last year. He looked cool under pressure, he has a decent short game and I like him in the weak Top Continental Europe market. I think that market offers a lot of value as the outsiders can easily be discounted and the front two in Garcia and Stenson are players I'm happy taking on.

     

      Branden Grace is in top South African against a weak field. Charl Schwartzel has only really played well here on the one year, Els and Immelman look gone and Oosthuizen has had injury problems and has missed plenty of cuts both here and in recent weeks. 4/1 looks very fair for a player who comes here in good form and who hits it long.

     

     

     I'm having 10 Points each-way Dustin Johnson at 18/1 1/4 12345 with Hills (could get win and place on Betfair).

     

     I'm having 5 Points each-way Brandt Snedeker at 45/1 1/4 12345 with Bet365 (Paddy offer 123456 at 45/1 if you are quick).

     

     I'm having 6 Points each-way Paul Casey at 66/1 1/4 12345 with Sporting Bet Ladbrokes and Hills.

     

     I'm having 6 Points each-way Ryan Palmer at 80/1 1/4 12345 with Hills and Ladbrokes (Paddy offer 123456 at 80/1 if you are quick).

     

     I'm having 4 Points each-way Victor Dubuisson at 100/1 1/4 12345 with Hills and Stan James (may just bet 3 pts e/w at 90/1 if the prices go).

     

     I'm having 4 Points each-way Gary Woodland at 100/1 1/4 12345 with Hills (100/1 6 places with Skybet and Paddy if you are quick and 7 places with Betfair Sports if you read all the small-print on that offer and want just £25).

     

     I'm having 10 Points Paul Casey to be Top Englishman at 9/2 with Bet365 and Betfair Sportsbook (it's 5/1 with Betfred if you are quick).

     

     I'm having 7 Points Victor Dubuisson to be Top Continental European at 9/1 with Hills Betfair Sportsbook and Bet365(10/1 with Sporting Bet if you are quick).

     

     I'm having 5 Points Jonas Blixt to be Top Continental European at 16/1 with Hills Skybet and Bet365.

     

     I'm having 10 Points Branden Grace to be Top South African at 4/1 with HillsLadbrokes and Sporting Bet.
