He can be a dodgy putter but the opposition is weak so back Sergio for top Spanish player

"Garcia is on the way back to his best after two wins last year, love this track and has already notched two top-five finishes this term."

There are five Spanish players in the Masters lineup and the favourite is a justifiably short price to finish above his compatriots, says Romily Evans

Taking its competitive cues from the Top Aussie bracket, this market revolves around one imperious talent whose putting is his only weakness. In this case, it's Sergio Garcia and the price is [2.14] to back.

That may seem short but he only has four rivals and is a class apart from them all. Two of them are over the hill (Miguel Angel Jimenez and Jose Maria Olazabal); one is still recovering from injury and is as susceptible with the short putts as Garcia (Gonzo Fernandez-Castano); while the other is a mercurial player who only seems able to play his best stuff in the Middle East (Alvaro Quiros).

It's a process of elimination, then, which leads me to strongly support Garcia. This Spaniard is on the way back to his best after two wins last year, love this track and has already notched two top-five finishes this term. It's uninspired, but I don't mind odds-against for the glaringly obvious.

Recommended Bet
Back Sergio Garcia @ [2.14]
