The Golf Blog Masters preview: Angel Cabrera + Miguel Angel Jimenez
We’re running out of days before the Masters, so we have to include several players in the next few posts. Today’s post is about the 2 Angels, the Argentine, Angel Cabrera, and the Spaniard, Miguel Angel Jimenez.
Why I like Cabrera and Jimenez? It’s very simple. They both have a history of playing well at The Masters, especially the younger, long-hitting Cabrera. Out of 7 Masters appearances, Cabrera made 4 cuts, placing in the Top 10 three times and finishing no worse than 15th. Last year, Cabrera was tied for 8th. His low round at Augusta is 66. Jimenez has made 5 of 8 cuts at Augusta, with 3 Top 11 finishes, his best finish is a tie for 9th and a low round of 68.
Jimenez is more of a long-shot. But if Cabrera did really well, that wouldn’t be a huge surprise to most golf commentators, given his talent. Neither has won since 2005, though.
