Ewen Murray (Sky Sports Golf commentator): My outsider is Marc Leishman - he's underrated. My top tip is Rory. He's very close and a little agitated. Perfect heading to Augusta.

Kay Cockerill (Golf Channel commentator and former LPGA player): "If Day is healthy, why not make it 3 wins in a row? He's better prepared now mentally to win The Masters if in position."
