Adam Scott

Has scar tissue from squandering 2012 British Open, says he's stronger. Also 32.

Brandt Snedeker

"I would trade probably all my PGA Tour wins for this one tournament," the Tour Championship and FedEx Cup winner said. Yes, also 32.

Ian Poulter

Phenomenal at Ryder Cup, less so, so far in majors

Matt Kuchar

Won 2012 Players Championship (the so-called "Fifth major"), actually shared the lead at Masters late on Sunday last year.
