GOLF EXPERT PREVIEWS THE MASTERS

Winning Edge’s expert golf analyst surveys this week's Masters field and identifies the key contenders for one of biggest and most prestigious tournaments in the world.

John is swinging into top form at precisely the right time of year and comes off recently finding Keith Mitchell for members at $300 to win the Honda Classic.

What does it take to win the Masters?

Spring, Easter and warmer weather in the US signifies Masters week at Augusta.

Past experience shows that certain players thrive at Augusta.

Firstly to win you need to be great lag putter and particularly good from 10 feet as many second putts can be from this range due to the excess speed and slopes of the green.

Being a good Iron player is of great assistance as leaving the shots to the green under the hole maximises the chance of making birdies.

Generally driving the ball long and right to left gives the best chance of reaching par fives in two and this seems to suit left handers. Phil Mickelson and Bubba Watson’s wins exemplified this.

So who fits the bill?

In no particular order the players who meet most if not all of these conditions include, Phil Mickelson, Tiger Woods, Paul Casey, Charley Hoffman, Bubba Watson, Jordan Spieth, Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm and Justin Thomas.

Clearly this is understood by the market. The only player in the market which does not fit all these criteria is Dustin Johnson ($12.50). I also think Spieth's form is so poor that at $27 he is way unders. So how do we find value?

Some of the players John has identified as value include:

• Adam Scott ($50) - Putting has improved to 27th on tour since switching to a DFP
• Phil Mickelson ($70) - Has the best overall record in the last 40 years except Jack Nicklaus. 0.5 units
• Fred Couples (top ten) $41 0.2 units - Fred's record is in the top ten of all time Strokes gained records at Augusta and amazingly despite his age 53 his record has not diminished in the last twenty years.

Dean's Tips in championship form

Day 1 of The Championships in Sydney was immense fun - and highly profitable - for Dean's Tips members - with some long-priced winners.

Some big winners included Aliferous $57, Gallic Chieftain $17 and Santa Ana Lane $7.90 storming home to win the star-studded TJ Smith Stakes.

As mentioned by Dean on the day, monitoring would prove fruitful with some bookies betting up to $71 Aliferous, with $90+ available on Betfair.

The day could have been ANYTHING with Lucciola Belle 2nd at $31, Madison County 2nd at $9, Real Ego very unlucky and only beaten a head at $31 and Taillevent in a blanket finish only 0.7L from the winner at $31 (49.3 units worth of close calls there!).

It resulted in a winning week of 6.2 units profit, adding the positive 37 units over the past five weeks, and 46 units since Feb 1.

Dean is looking forward to Day 2 of the Championships on Saturday - get involved below!
