Who Will Win?

Woods is out now.  Lefty Phil Mickelson has taken over Tiger. But let's see other multi-major winner.

Padraig Harrington hasn't posted a victory on either the European or US PGA Tour since the 2008 PGA Championship. But that surely has to end soon and what better way to pick up the winning thread again than at a huge event like the Players.

Five of the last eight Sawgrass winners have been non-Americans and that quintet includes Canada's Stephen Ames(driver Stephen uses: Nike SQ Sumo 5000, 9.5). The former Trinidad and Tobago native played brilliantly to win here in 2006 and he's since made the payout places again by finishing fifth in 2008.He has an excellent record in Florida and with plenty to recommend him, the 66/1 represents definite value.

Now for some real outsiders. Firstly, 200/1 Kevin Stadler. A much more consistent player now, Stadler could just be a dark horse worth following.

The 225/1 about Paul Goydos also seems way too big. Outsiders can fare well in this event and Goydos, as he proved two years ago, is capable of rising to the occasion.

Ben Crane's methodical approach has served him well at Sawgrass and he's finished fifth and sixth in the last two years.

Finally, I won't desert Camilo Villegas, despite his horrid final round 80 at Quail Hollow. It's worth remembering that the Colombian was 12th going into round four so it's fairly easy to dismiss his Sunday as one of those days when the adrenalin drains away when a player is out of contention. He also closed with a 77 at Augusta recently.

Visualize it. It's interesting to predict the winner.
