Moving Day At The Masters Golf Tournament

As they say this is moving day at the Masters Golf Tournament!!! Chad Campbell shares the lead going into the third round of the Masters. Does he have it in him to stay at the top of the leaderboard after this round?

Chad is a solid player with a 3rd place finish already under his belt at the Masters. I expect him to be near the top for the final round.

Kenny Perry is tough when he gets to the top of the leaderboard. However, at age 49, does he have the staying power? That 67 he posted on Friday makes me believe that Kenny is in the groove and will be close or at the top come Sunday.

Angel Cabrera has posted two solid 68's. This free swinging golfer has the experience in the majors, winning the US Open. Will he be in contention come Sunday? I expect him to fade a little bit in the third round.

Todd Hamilton has won the British Open but generally doesn't play well in the majors. I think he will also fade in the third round.

Tim Clark has been in the thick of things before, finishing 2nd in the Masters Golf Tournament and third in the US Open and PGA Championship. He might be the surprise at this year's Masters. You can't count him out.

Jim Furyk was my pick to win this thing. Jim started to fade in the second round. He can't seem to play in the wind. Weather conditions for the next two rounds are calm and sunny.  However, Jim isn't going in the right direction. I don't expect much out of him in the third round.

Sergio and Phil are making a push and should make things interesting come Sunday.

You have a slew of top name players at -3 and -4. Anyone of them could rise to the top. Rory Sabbatini, Geoff Ogilvy, Vijay Singh, Steve Stricker all have the game to contend.

Young Nick Watney has played solid all year but has little Masters experience. I don't see him playing a part come Sunday. He has a bright future.

And then there is Tiger. Tiger hasn't done anything special... yet. Is he a little rusty and needs more time to hone his game? C'mon, this is the #1 player in the world who lives for the majors. If the past tells you anything it is that you can never rule Tiger out. He's only 7 strokes behind. He can do miraculous things.

This is moving day at the Masters Golf Tournament. I expect the top named players to make their move. Should be a great Sunday!!
