Trevor Immelman -115 v Harry Ellis (British Amateur Champion)
Here is a history lesson...there have been 30 British Amateur Champions who have played the Masters.
Of the 30, 27 have MC. The 3 that didn't were Sergio, Mannasero and Langasque. Best finish was Mannasero T36 (2010)
Of the 30 they are a combined +360 over par.
Of the 30 their average round 1 score is 81.5
Their average round 2 score goes down to 77.5
Harry will not be feeling very comfortable at Augusta
I know Immelman isn't good anymore, but he isn't terrible.
He has been playing better lately.
His last event he made the cut at Punta Cana on PGA tour.
And his last Eurotour event in last week of January at Omega Dunai Desert Classic he was pretty good at -12 T32.
He is a past winner of the Green Jacket.
As a past winner he has come back and played this most every year since.
He will be comfortable here.
I'm gonna take a shot and hope that Harry is the usual no shot British Amateur Champion. Hopefully Harry doesn't surprise me.
I'm figuring they both MC but Immelman is better.
All thoughts welcome.
Good luck
