1. Tiger Woods
On the tenth anniversary of his first Masters win, he'll win by at least three shots, and probably shoot about 15-under.
2. Henrik Stenson
The Swedish star missed the cut a year ago, but his game is so much better and he'll try to become the first European to win a major since 1999.
3. Padraig Harrington
If Stenson doesn't break through for the Europeans, the talented Irishman might be the one to end the drought.
4. Vijay Singh
He's already won his green jacket and his length makes him a leading contender on this now 7,445-yard Augusta National beast.
5. Phil Mickelson
The defending champion still has plenty of game, despite his U.S. Open meltdown, and if he has a decent putting week, he'll earn a fourth major.
6. Sergio Garcia
As long as he doesn't spit in the wind, or the cup, he's got a good chance to win his first major.
7. Adam Scott
The young Aussie comes in off a win in Houston and may finally fulfill the expectations he's engendered as one of the best young players in the world.
8. Ernie Els
He has three majors and showed some signs of life at Doral after some spotty play over the last two years.
9. Geoff Ogilvy
The defending U.S. Open champion can stand the pressure, but his putting will be the major question.
10. Chris DiMarco
He forced Woods into a playoff two years ago and has been hanging around major leader boards for several years now. Maybe this is his time.
