A new talent rises
I'm a big fan of Matthew Fitzpatrick, and he showcased what a great talent he's going to be by leading the Masters on Thursday, before he slipped back with a double-bogey at the close of play.
I really believe that Fitzpatrick will have a great chance to finish in the top 10 this year at Augusta, and he does have the class to bounce back and turn in a few more superb scores before the end of the tournament.
With Fitzpatrick doing so well, it's worth looking at Jordan Speith ahead of the round two three ball, as he was making great progress before a terrible bogey at the 14th hole. He then had a nine at the tricky par five 15th hole. Speith is a clever operator should bounce back with no worries.
I'm also a fan of the German Martin Kaymer, as he has solid golf skills, but dropped back in the field with a horrible back nine. He appears to find the Augusta course quite tricky, but I believe he can also strike back.
Finally I come to Mickelson. He sees this tournament as a gift, and doesn't want to put unnecessary pressure on himself, and just wants to go out there and play the best golf he possibly can. When he does that, he does indeed need to be watched.
Enjoy the rest of the tournament!
