Forget seat belts in golf carts, as a golf aficionado...I may need to install one on my easy chair for tomorrow!

So many compelling stories and such a tight leaderboard of great players.

While I would love to see Spieth make up for last year, I wouldn't be disappointed to see a few others win either.

Rose is a heck of a player and with being an Olympic Gold Medalist and US Open champion...he would be a fine representative.

Rickie Fowler breaking through in a major, would also be a heck of a good story...as well as a popular and well earned win.

And while I admire Hoffman, I'm not sure his nerves are up to the pressure of the back nine at Augusta on Sunday.

Which brings up my dark-horse pick...Ryan Moore. I just like Moore's almost blue-collar like workmanship and demeanor.

And I wouldn't have said this a few years ago because of his historical pouty and immature attitude, I have to now say that I'm mostly rooting for Garcia to win his first major...especially on what would have been his idol Seve's 60th birthday.

In spite of how Garcia has acted in the past, with his skill...I think he has paid his dues and hope he finally wins a major.

Regardless of who wins, I'll bet it will be like riding a roller coaster...watching the last 9 holes.
