Phil Mickelsons chances in Augusta

[EaglesLinc]

It seems to me Phil is getting bypassed as a favorite to win this week. While all attention is turned to Tiger and who else out there might be able to beat him, his name doesn't appear at the top of too many lists.

He has already won a few times this year and is playing as well as anyone and the odds say he has a great chance to win. I guess people doubt he can beat Tiger head to head.

Hard to peg Phil right now. On one hand he does have a good Augusta track record, but he's struggling right now....also, is he playing well enough to justify being the number two overall favorite? I'd much rather put my money on Ogilvy, Goosen or Harrington, who offer way more value than Phil...

Phil's sitting at EVEN par right now with about 4 holes to go

As long as you can keep the leaders in your sights you have a good chance to be in the hunt come Sunday.

Anything at par or below is good position after the first round.
