3 Reasons Why Tiger Will Win the 2019 Masters

1. He won't.

2. Let's be fair to the guy. He's great copy. The years he was on top, golf's popularity soared. So sticking with what they know, TV and the sports commentariat keep sucking that thumb.

Examples:

Opinion: Tiger Woods says he can win Masters, and that doesn't sound ridiculous at all

Christine Brennan, USA TODAY

Sorry Christine, it is ridiculous. (Golfweek has the exact same headline, by the way. Just to cover my bases, to Golfweek I say, "No, it isn't ridiculous at all." This follows the reporter's rule of spelling last names. If you don't know, spell it different ways. One of them is bound to be right. This method isn't a big hit with editors.)

Will Tiger Woods win the Masters? (a poll from Tylt).

Voters are slightly on the yes side. Sorry voters. There is a better chance that President Trump will invite refugees to the White House to give them the tickets to Disneyland he says they want.

CBS Sports:

2019 Masters: 14 years removed from his last, can Tiger Woods win another green jacket?

No and yes.

Kyle Porter writes:

I don't know if it will be this year, but we will have a real moment in the near future where we say, If Tiger makes this putt or sticks this shot (or whatever it is), he's going to win the Masters.

To be fair, Kyle thinks the above won't happen in 2019. It will never happen, Kyle.

3. Keegan Bradley will win the Masters in 2019.
