I voted Boo. I think anytime you're trying to win your first, it'll probably be the most difficult mentally.

Zach Johnson will be facing the most pressure. He went from a grinding nobody to a Masters champ overnite .... has to prove his Masters win wasnt a fluke. He has a decent game but the expectations are going to be way to much.

Boo had the Saturday night lead three times on the Nationwide Tour last year but didn't 'get er done'. Missed a 3 footer on the 72nd hole at the Honda that would have won it. This was a big moment for him, finally closing the deal.

Depends on the Person

If depends on the golfer. I think Ernie and Boo were both under pressure. Laura Davies was too, since she isn't going to get many opportunities and it has been a while.

David Duval had the most difficult time winning his first title, and then he won a bunch of events after then. The same is true with Ton Watson.

Charles Howell admitted winning his second after a 4.5 year winless drought was the most difficult. I think Ray Floyd had a very difficult time winning the 1975 Kemper Open breaking a 5.5 year winning drought. It was a big springboard to his career.
