Tiger Woods will be favored to win the 2013 Masters, but don't count out Jason Day.

Day isn't the only sleeper with a chance to make a surprise charge up the leaderboard over the weekend and win at Augusta National, either. 

While guys like Woods and Phil Mickelson win majors more often than their lesser-known peers, watching men like Zach Johnson and Charl Schwartzel shock the world is even more rewarding for many fans. 

These men have a shot to be this year's Johnson, and if they bring home the green jacket, they'll have a win for the ages.

 

Jason Day



Day came oh so close to winning this tournament back in 2011, falling just short of the goal by finishing in second place behind Schwartzel.

He's only won a single tournament on the PGA Tour since becoming a pro, though, and has only finished in the top three once this season heading into this year's Masters. 

That top three came at another big event, however—the World Golf Championships-Accenture Match Play Championship in late February. 

Day also played well at Pebble Beach earlier this year, finishing in sixth place at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. 

He's an above-average putter (No. 40) and is excellent on sand saves (No. 6). Day has the overall game to win a major, but he has yet to put the entire package together for four rounds. His ball-striking must be spot on, but if it is, Day can win at Augusta.

He has a track record of being able to focus well at big events, and he'll be a player to keep an eye on at the Masters this year. 

 

Tim Clark



When Clark is on, he's really on. 

When he's off, well...he gets cut.

Clark's best finish at the Masters came back in 2006, when he finished in second place behind Mickelson. He's finished in 13th place ...
