He's on fire. Birdies on each of the first five holes. Sergio up and down. Just been following him....
THE MASTERS - Chad Campbell
- Thread starter Alex_narey
- Start date
Hows Sergio putting. I dont think Campbell will be in the final shake up. Always someone on day 1 comes out hot

Sergio does not look happy through Amen Corner.
Personally i think his putting woes will hinder his ability to win this week.

It just gets worse for poor old Michael Campbell. 80 today and he couldn't even beat Ray Floyd, Fuzzy or Gary Player. What's happened to his game??

Of course I agree about Campbell - but it's a pretty impressive opening.
Sergio fans, i have blogged on his early progress.

Sergio's putting has been awful past few weeks.

Goosen, Els, Mickelson in danger of missing cut.
Campbell is a streaky player, when he's on he's pretty good - he could lead start to finish if the weather stays benign. Shame he overcooked that long putt on 18th. That 3 putt must've taken the shine off his round.
Sergio's putting will always be his achilles heel. If you could choose any golf skill to be great at I think anyone would choose short putting first - you simply can't score at Pro level without being very good at this part of the game.

Missed alot of it last night. Hope to catch up tonight?
I'm pleased with my two tips Stenson and Westwood - nice steady starts and comfortably in the pack

My 2 bets (Casey and Z Johnson) are both under par and top 30 as I write so doing ok too. 
I'll stick my neck out now and say Chad Campbell will win this, he's on a good week, putter is obviously working and at the Masters that is the most important thing. He's firing in birdies again today.

Almost 3 hours later and they're both playing rubbish.
You lot shouldn't be encouraging me!
