If you are like me I am sure you can’t wait to see what Augusta National looks like in the autumn, all those reds and oranges of the tree lined fairways replacing all the colours of the Azaleas in spring. When Bobby Jones purchased this land to build his dream course, it was originally a tree nursery so I am sure that will come shining through on our TV screens.

The other whispered chat around clubhouses is how will Augusta cope with the new power game of Bryson DeChambeau, maybe it’s a blessing that the damper colder air of November will help curtail the distance the ball flies in the air and runs on the fairways, but there is no doubt that the more loft and control you have on your golf ball going into these greens is going to give that player a massive advantage.

The back nine on Masters Sunday always conjures up drama and as Bobby Jones once said “Competitive golf is played mainly on a five-and-a-half-inch course, the space between your ears.” No matter how much muscle or added inches to your 5° driver. There may be no roars of excitement or spectators cheering you on, but there’s still a metal battle that also has to be won.

My tips to Win:

After saying all of that how can I not tip Bryson Dechambeu 8/1 – with Ladbrokes – who will be announced onto the tee each day as the US Open Champion, which will just feed into Bryson’s confidence especially if he gets off to a fast start with his game plan to attack Augusta.

It was a tough choice between Dustin Johnson 12/1 – with UniBet – and Justin Thomas 12/1 – with UniBet – both are in great form. As I write this guide Dustin has just shot back-to-back 66s to move into the Top 5 at the Houston Open and with his better record over the Augusta National track with four Top 10s including a runner-up finish and a Top 5, Johnson edges it for me.

2018 Masters Champion Patrick Reed 28/1 – with SportingBet – should arrive at Augusta in buoyant mood. Patrick had a win at the WGC Mexico Championship earlier this year and ended the PGA Tour season with eight Top 10 finishes from twenty starts giving him an eighth-place finish on the FedEx Cup rankings. Reed also had a third-place finish at the BMW PGA Championship on the European Tour last month after his Top 15 finish at the US Open.

Each-way tips:

Another player who is competing at the Houston Open this week is Hideki Matsuyama 40/1 – with BetFred – who had a steady start over the first two rounds and has just shot a third round 66 to move into the Top 10. Last year was the first time Hideki had finished outside the Top 20 at the Masters since 2015, he has three Top 15 finishes including a fifth-place finish in his eight starts at Augusta and I must admit I was surprised to find him this far down the betting odds.

I did tip Louis Oosthuizen 55/1 – with BetFred – in 2010 when he was runner-up to Bubba Watson and with his third-place finish at the US Open two months ago, which followed on from his two Top 6 finishes in WGC events this year, the South Africa will be fancying his chances of adding a green jacket to his claret jug.

Outside tip:

Many of you will know that I have fancied Cameron Smith 100/1 – with UniBet – to win on the new wraparound season and his current form of three Top 25 finishes from his last three starts, progressing up the leaderboard with each event reinforces that feeling. Cameron had a Top 5 finish here two years ago firing a final round 66 and I feel these are great odds for the Australian.

Longer odds:

Try Bernd Wiesberger 200/1 – with Ladbrokes

As always good luck
