It's time to get geared up for the 2014 Masters at Augusta National.

Tiger Woods isn't in the field due to injury. Phil Mickelson is ailing with a strained oblique. Due to the fact that those two golfers are generally each year's favorites by default, the green jacket appears as up for grabs as ever this week.

Predictions

Lee Westwood (40-1)



This is where the smart money goes.

Lee Westwood has a strong history at Augusta. No matter how well he is playing leading up to the Masters, he always shows up.
