Who Will Wear THE Green Jacket in 2019?


When Tiger Woods wins the Masters next year (2019) it'll be as big as Jack in '86.

Yes, I wrote it and I believe it. Tiger's going to slip on another Green Jacket in the Butler Cabin in April.

I'm not the only one making the prediction, either. Lots of oddsmakers think so, too.

Tiger is currently the odds on favorite followed closely by Jordan Spieth and Rory McIlroy.



Here's why Tiger is the favorite to win the 2019 Masters:

Tiger's confidence from winning the Tour Championship

Who can forget that phenomenal scene in Atlanta at East Lake when thousands of fans crowded around the 18th green on Sunday as Tiger put the finishing touches on his victory. The exuberant throng was reminiscent of Bobby Jones being celebrated at the 1930 Amateur Championship at St Andrews. It was Tiger's first win in five years and signaled golf world that he truly was back after multiple back surgeries and other personal setbacks. With this high-profile win, Tiger proved to himself and the doubters that he had not forgotten how to win. You could tell in the follow-up media interview that his confidence was back.

He' Done It--He's Won It

Tiger has won the Masters four times (1997, 2001, 2002 and 2005). His most notable was the first one, when he essentially lapped the field with a 12-stroke victory. It was his first career major championship. If he wins in 2019, he'll move ahead of Arnie for the second-most Masters victories behind Jack Nicklaus, who has six. Oh yeah, he's won 14 majors and 80 PGA Tour events, so he knows what it's going to take to win at Augusta.

He Knows Augusta National and how to play it

Woods first played Augusta National as a 19-year old amateur in 1995. He has played in the Masters 21 times during his career. Always inquisitive about the golf course, Tiger has always enjoyed the Champions Dinner each year because it gave him a chance to talk about what it takes to win with legendary champions like Nicklaus, Palmer and Players. Woods knows exactly what shots to hit and how to read the greens. If he has his "A" game and executes, he'll be wearing another Green Jacket in 2019.

He wants to win this tournament more than any other

While Tiger has had some amazing victories in his career, arguably, the most meaningful was the 1997 Masters, which signaled to the golf universe that he was truly a transcendent player. The emotional embrace with his father on the 18th green and the significance of his impressive victory running away from the field, make it one of the highlights of his career. Second to that memory was the 2005 Masters when he sunk an impossible chip shot at the 16th. Woods went on to beat Chris DiMarco in a play-off.
