The Masters: Event Information

Event Preview

All eyes will be on one of the most famous sporting venues in the world this weekend, as The Masters will take place at Augusta National. The 89th edition of the opening major of the season will be one of the biggest betting events of the year, as the world’s best players compete to win the illustrious green jacket.

Scottie Scheffler will once again be favored in the betting, as he bids to retain the top prize. However, defending champions have a very poor record at The Masters, with just two of the last ten champions returning to finish in the top ten. But, Scheffler is the world’s top player, and he will be hoping to win the major for the third time in four years.

Rory McIlroy will be a popular selection, as the Northern Irishman bids to win The Masters for the first time. The 35-year-old arrives at Augusta in red-hot form, having already won The Players Championship this year. However, McIlroy is still without a major championship win since 2014, and he has never finished any better than second at The Masters.

Bryson DeChambeau looks set to be the leading contender for the LIV tour. The American finished in an excellent tie for sixth at The Masters last year, and he finished in the top ten in three of the four majors in 2024.

Shane Lowry could be a player flying under the radar. The Irishman was a top-ten finisher in the recent Valaspar Championship, and he holds a respectable record at The Masters after finishing in a tie for third in 2022.

The Masters Picks

Ludvig Aberg will be our main win play this weekend. The Swede finished an excellent second at The Masters last year, and he has an excellent record at Augusta. His form so far this year has been steady, winning the Genesis Invitational. Aberg has the skills in his arsenal to be the value play at the prices available.
