Garcia has the distinction of never having won a major championship, though he's finished 2nd on more than one occasion. His highest placement in a US Open was 3nd in 2005.
Could this be Garcia's year? Many observers are saying "Yes".
"I've just done better in the other three than I've done at Augusta," Garcia said. "I don't know, I just haven't done well there. I've had a couple of good finishes. But consistency-wise, I've done better in the other ones. I don't know; I guess it's just one of those things.
"I do like the place," he said of Augusta National. "It's a really tough course, and it's gotten really, really difficult throughout the years. Unfortunately, I haven't performed the way I would like at the Masters, but hopefully, I'll be able to change that."
