Yes, Tiger is the odds on favorite and he has been in Augusta practicing since last week but (and I know this will sound crazy)if the "old man" Freddy Couples plays this week as well as he has been playing recently, he is going to turn a few heads in Augusta. And if he gets on any kind of a roll this weekend, he will have more fan support from the gallery this year than Tiger, Jack, or Arnie ever had.

I am pumped up for the Masters. While it would be cool if Freddy played well, I don't know if he would generate more support than Tiger. I have been to the Player's Championship a couple times and you wouldn't believe the mobs of people that follow Tiger. In order to watch him, you have to go about 4 holes ahead.

I know he's not Tiger and I know his odds this week are not great considering his age but Freddy is a fan favorite in Augusta. His back is the best its been in years, he's hitting the ball very well at the moment, and should he happen to get on a roll this week, mark my words, the gallery will go nuts.
