Line Movement (opening, current)
Rory McIlroy +1200, +650
Collin Morikawa +2500, +1400
Bryson DeChambeau +1400, +1600
Justin Thomas +3300, +2200
It's no surprise to see fan-favorite Rory McIlroy move towards the top of the odds board. While Bryson DeChambeau's odds have fallen after a rough spring.
Highest Ticket%
Rory McIlroy 10.6%
Scottie Scheffler 8.5%
Bryson DeChambeau 8.1%
Bettors love the favorites. McIlroy continues to hold the highest ticket percentage heading into the 2025 edition of the Masters. Without Tiger Woods in the field, McIlroy and Scheffler bring the star power to Augusta.
Highest Handle%
Rory McIlroy 14.8%
Scottie Scheffler 12.1%
Bryson DeChambeau 9.5%
As such, nearly 27% of the money is on either McIlroy or Scheffler to put on the green jacket this year. With Bryson DeChambeau rounding out the star trio, bettors seem to think 2025 favors the chalk.
McIlroy is an intriguing play, as since his 2014 PGA Championship victory, he's gone 0-38 in major tournaments. The Irishman has yet to win a Masters, but bettors love McIlroy to break the curse this year at Augusta.
Biggest Liabilities
Bryson DeChambeau
Rory McIlroy
Ludvig Aberg
With his longer odds, DeChambeau is currently the biggest liability for the sportsbook, followed by McIlroy and Ludvig Aberg. Aberg was a favorite of mine in last year's 3-ball bets and is an in-form name to keep an eye on.
