At long last, golf‘s first major championship of the year has arrived, as the 2024 edition of The Masters is set to kick off on Thursday, April 11. And what a week it should be at famed Augusta National Golf Club.
It should come as no surprise that Scottie Scheffler is the betting favorite heading into the first round, as the world’s top-ranked player has recorded two victories and a tie for second in his last three starts.
According to BetMGM, the 2022 Masters champ enters the week at +400 to win (a $100 bet gives you $400 in profit plus your original stake). In four starts at Augusta, Scheffler has yet to finish outside the top 20.
The second-best odds belong to the world’s second-ranked player, Rory McIlroy (+1000), who comes to the 2024 Masters to take his 10th attempt at completing the career Grand Slam. McIlroy, who’s been stuck on four major championships for nearly a decade now, has a strong history at Augusta with seven top-10 finishes in 15 starts.
Then, of course, there’s defending champion Jon Rahm (+1200), who’s hoping to become the first back-to-back Masters winner since Tiger Woods accomplished the feat in 2001 and 2002.
And speaking of Tiger, the five-time champion is in the field of 89 this week but is well down the board at +12500. Woods withdrew from the only start he’s made on the PGA Tour this season at the Genesis Invitational due to illness. He also withdrew at Augusta a year ago with a plantar fasciitis injury.
Let’s take a look at how the rest of the field stacks up.
Betting Odds For Every Player at the 2024 Masters
Outside Scheffler, McIlroy, and Rahm, the only other player with odds better than +2000 is Xander Schauffele (+1600), who owns three top-10 finishes in six starts at Augusta.
Past champions Jordan Spieth and Hideki Matsuyama are right on the +2000 number, as is LIV Golf’s Brooks Koepka, who tied for second a year ago.
Here’s a look at the 2024 Masters betting odds for every player in the field.
