Who will don the Green Jacket? Rory needs aMasters win to complete
a career Grand Slam. Jordan Spieth seems to love Augusta National.
Hideki Matsuyama appears ready to win a major and Dustin Johnson’s
length makes him a favorite also. Don’t forget Bubba Watson, he
already has two Green Jackets and could add a third.
Can Ariya Jutanugarn follow up her fantastic 2016 campaign and
overtake Lydia Ko for the No. 1 spot in women’s golf? Jutanugarn
left her driver in the bag and still finished top-20 in driving
distance with a 2-iron. If she finds a driver she can keep on the
golf course in the off season, she will dominate women’s golf for
a long time to come.
2016 will go down as one of the best years ever in golf history. Spieth’s collapse
at the 2016 Masters and Johnson’s win at Oakmont, despite interference from
the USGA rules officials were captivating stories. The Henrik Stenson and Phil
Mickelson duel at Royal Troon was one for the ages. Throw in golf in the Olympics
for the first time since 1904 and a tremendous Ryder Cup at Hazeltine.
If 2017 is half as good, it will be well worth watching.
