Major winners in 2013

abff

Which of the following do you think will win one or more majors in 2013?

• Rory McIlroy
• Padraig Harrington
• Luke Donald
• Lee Westwood
• Justin Rose
• Ian Poulter
• Tiger Woods
• Phil Mickelson
• Charl Schwartzel
• Louis Oosthuizen

I've set it up as a poll and you can select more than one. My own selections are based partly on form and partly on wishful thinking.

Charl in with a good shout if he starts of 2013 as he finished last year.

Would love to see Poulter win one purely for his RC show last year.

Think Rory will win at least one. Would love to see Luke get one.

Roll on April, as soon as the New Year comes I start to think about the Masters.....

I have a nagging feeling that Poulter will sneak one this year, maybe at Oak Hill for the PGA

US Open - Tiger
Open - Rory
USPGA - Luke

Masters Westwood or Lowry
Us Open Luke
Open Rory or Lowry
PGA Kaymer

Where's Ernie in the poll !!

Rory, Tiger
After that it could be anyone from the top 20.

I always reckon that Luke has the short game for the masters but he never seems to do it there, shame.

I'd love to see it happen. The man can do no wrong in my eyes after the Ryder Cup.

Can't see him doing another one. I picked the ten people I thought were most likely to win a major next year. Hugely subjective, I know. My own picks are

Rory
Padraig
Poulter
Schwartzel

Not necessarily in that order.

McIlroy
Rose

I know its your subjective opinion OP but I don't see any way that Harrington has a better chance of winning a major this year than the likes of Bradley, Dufner, McDowell, Scott, Simpson etc. Would love to be proven wrong all the same!

If I was to pick now I'd go the following:

Masters: Tiger - I find it hard to back against Tiger on what effectively is a home ground for him. If he is to win one this year I think this will be it. Rory has been very up and down over the last couple of years here and while I think he'll be competitive I don't fancy him to win. Louis and Scott will compete hard again.

US Open: Bradley - Its slightly strange this year in that the US Open is being played on a slightly quirky course at Merion while the PGA is at a big long course at Oak Hill. I fancy Bradley to win one at some stage this year so I've gone for this one. McDowell should continue his excellent for at the US Opens with a decent performance here.

Open Championship: Scott - Struggling to decide between Scott and Oosthuizen for this. Gonna go for Scott just because it would be good to see a bit of redemption for him after last years collapse.

PGA: McIlroy - I think he'll be frustrated in a couple of the earlier majors but Oak Hill should set up to his liking.

Point taken. I did say in my original post that my selections were based on a combination of form and wishful thinking! I still think Padraig has it in him to win another major (or maybe even more than one) if he can just get everything to click at the same time.

No order.

Tiger
Rose
Dufner
Oosthuizen.

Might invest in a lucky 15!!

I always have a sneaky e/w on Rickie Fowler for the british open too.

Went for Dufner too - amazed more have not gone for him. He does look a but shaky down the home stretch but.

Just a bit mixed up I was. Johnson to win the Open and Rory for the PGA

The question was who would win one or more majors in 2013, not which majors they would win.
