BIG J1's MASTERS PREDICTIONS

**Big J1** · 07-20-2010, 09:46 AM

There are no viable lists out so the information here is on heresay and other posts...In fact some of the women listed may not even be in the show but I think the predicted cards and winners are confirmed.

LW

Margaret Negrete returns and should take the class also is over 45
Nilsa Anderson is eligible and was last years second

MW

Janet Kaufman returns after close loss to Tracy Mason last year and should sweep the class
Amy Sibcy is eligible and was last years second.

LHW

Jennifer Gutierrez enters masters for first time and should make quite an impact. I pick her for the win
Kris Clark returns as last years lhw champion. here is where it gets tricky she is eligible for over 45's and will compete for the card there..
Beth Wachter is always a threat and I also know Sylvia Cowan and Leslie Crook are competing

HW

Bonnie Pappas is entering masters here and will be a force also eligible for 45's
Michelle Ivers Brent seeks her elusive pro card, a veteran and a great one
Kat Connors is eligible and was last years runnerup
Look out for Gabriel Nicander who is coming in better than ever

Gary Udit has announced 40 over thirty-fives and I have mentioned only 13 so look for some big surprises...

Pro cards by the names above...

Over 45....Look for a close one between Clark and Pappas for the HW and Negrete for the LW....I believe Kaufman is not 45 yet...lol
KRIS CLARK FOR THE CARD

Over 35....Very close between Janet Kaufman and Jennifer Gutierrez....
JANET KAUFMAN FOR THE CARD....unless someone beats Kris Clark in the 45's then this could change..

Humbly,
Big J1

She weighed in the low 140s as of Tuesday morning, so she will more than likely compete at LHW. She looks as lean as I've ever seen her!
