The azaleas, the pine trees, the magnolia trees, the firm greens, and the 4 inch rough is the stage for the 2007 Masters. The eyes of the world are set on the number one player of the world, Tiger Woods. He is an extraordinary player with a heart bigger than any course, but the new and young rising stars will make a run for the major.
I think that a young player is going to win because it is a long course that requires accuracy and distance of the tee, it is a 4 day tournament (plus practice rounds), it is a very hilly course that at the end it could require extra gas that younger players have. The winner will require a complete game, there is no room for good luck, the course is set up difficult and it will only get harder because the greens will be quicker, faster, and the pin placements are going to be tougher. Rising stars that could be on contention on Sunday are Camilo Villegas, Justin Rose, Henrik Stenson, and Ian Poulter.
The history of the Masters goes back to 1934, since then, the course has been changed to cope with the more powerful and longer players on the Tour. The quickness of the greens will be a hard task for the players.
