1. Tiger Woods
One of the most anticipated returns in the history of sports, Tiger Woods makes his return this week to golf. His game may not be in top form but the face of golf is back and all eyes will be focused on the world’s number one golfer. Tiger hasn’t won at Augusta since ‘05 but he has three top 3’s in the last four years, you never know?

2. Ernie Els
Ernie Els enters this years Masters as the tours hottest player winning twice this season (WGC-CA Championship and the Arnold Palmer Invitational). ‘The big easy’ has failed to make the cut the past three years but all things are pointed towards a solid finish this year. If he continues his stellar play this week we could see Ernie poppin’ the collar on his first green jacket.

3. Phil Mickelson
Mickelson has struggled this year with only one top ten, but difficult to argue with Lefty’s record at Augusta. He has finished in the top 10 at the Masters ten of the last eleven years and in the top three five of those years.

4. Padraig Harrington
Harrington the constant ‘grinder’ always seems to be in contention on Sunday’s in Majors. Harrington has won three majors and has finished fifth at the Masters twice and seventh once. Don’t be surprised if Padraig slips on a green jacket one of these years.

5. Anthony Kim
This may be the year of the young gun, at 24 Kim is coming into this years Masters with some great mojo after winning last week at the Shell Houston Open. Those shiny belt buckles would accessorize a green jacket quite nicely.
