SocraticGadfly: The Masters Day 1

The Masters Day 1

Well, my pick of Retief Goosen to win Augusta ain’t looking so hot with him sitting at +3 after day one at Augusta National.

That said, people thinking Philly Mick would finally shake off the 2006 U.S. Open need to rethink, with him at +1. And Jason Sobel from ESPN needs to rethink calling my man Vijay as a cut likelihood, before the tourney started, as Singh came in –1 today.

Other news? Hotshot rookie Rory McIlroy posted even part, Padraig Harrington is at –3 and some guy named Woods is at –2.

Besides being off on my Goose prediction, I think the winning score prediction of 8-10 under is, if anything, conservative.
