Five players who could win the Masters: Including Rory McIlroy, and two-time winner of the green jacket

Bubba Watson

The 36-year-old has a great affinity with the course, having won on two occasions. His ability to shape the ball both ways, no matter how wild the shot required, has proved pivotal to his victories.

His play-off win against Louis Oosthuizen in 2012 was set up by an unbelievable approach on the tenth hole. In the trees, and with the green out of sight, Watson nailed a wicked draw onto the green. He even managed to somehow generate spin despite hitting off the pine needles.

The defending champion’s win last year was more emphatic, as he claimed his second green jacket by three shots.
