The Masters 2010

GOLFING fans will be tuned into the BBC on April 8 to watch The Masters 2010.

This is the first golfing major of the year and is held at the picturesque Augusta National in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.

The course is well known for its lightning fast greens and colourful flower beds.

Last year Angel Cabrera took the green jacket after he defeated Kenny Perry and Chad Campbell in a play-off.

This year all eyes will be on Tiger Woods, who makes his return to professional golf following his time out from the game after the revelations about his private life.

Despite his break from professional golf, Tiger, will start as favourite to win this year’s event.

You know that Spring is here when The Masters is being played and it is light relief to watch after the long winter months.

When you tune into watch The Masters, it is difficult not to be over-awed by the beauty of the course, which was designed by British-born designer, Dr Alister MacKenzie.

I think the best day to watch the event is the Sunday as it is the most exciting. Coverage normally finishes in the early hours of the morning, but still the climax of the tournament is the best to watch.

The BBC present the tournament well too and their output is not spoilt by adverts. Peter Alliss is often entertaining too.

My money is on Tiger!
