Some of you either don't follow much golf or don't know what a dark horse is...Rose and Westwood? GTFO.

I picked Freddie Jacobson in the Masters thread earlier in the week as my dark horse, so I'll stick with that.

Well considering around 30 golfers are more likely to win than Haas based on Vegas odds, probably a decent darkhorse.

Adam Scott, Westwood, Keegan... they are among the favorites and getting picks

He always plays well at Augusta.

I've been saying Henley for the last two weeks and I'm sticking with it. He won the Sony Open earlier this year, and although Fuzzy is the only person who has won at Augusta on their debut, Henley has a good shot considering he's played their close to a dozen times

Pulling for Snuffner though

Solid pick, he is a really good putter. Can make birdies in bunches

Yeah, I watch golf, but I don't follow it much. I mostly watch the big tournaments. I think I heard that Westwood has never won a major. Is that right? He's my pick to win it. I wasn't sure if he was a darkhorse or not.

That is correct. I would think the Masters would be his worst chance to win a major. He's not that great of a putter and you need to make putts to win the Masters.
