The 2025 Masters Tournament will feature a field of elite golfers at the top of their games. Scottie Scheffler is the No. 1-ranked player in the world and will enter Augusta National Golf Club on Thursday as the defending champion. If Scheffler can finish on top of the 2025 Masters leaderboard, he'll be the first repeat champion since Tiger Woods in 2001-02. Scheffler is the +400 favorite (risk $100 to win $400), according to the latest 2025 Masters odds and is +105 to finish in the top five.
Looking to complete his career grand slam, Rory McIlroy is next in line on the PGA odds board at 13-2, followed by Jon Rahm (14-1), Ludvig Aberg (18-1), Collin Morikawa (16-1), and Xander Schauffele (20-1). Woods, a five-time Masters champion, likely won't play due to a ruptured Achilles in March and was 140-1 to win. Before locking in any 2025 Masters picks, you NEED to see the PGA Tour predictions and best bets from golf insider Patrick McDonald.
McDonald joined CBS Sports as a golf writer in 2022 after stops at NBC Sports and RyderCup.com. Covering the sport from a broader perspective, McDonald still likes to dip his toes into the betting pools on a weekly basis between the PGA Tour, DP World Tour and more. Featured weekly on the Early Wedge, he gave out numerous winners in 2024, including Jake Knapp (50-1) at the Mexico Open and Xander Schauffele (20-1) at the PGA Championship. He already nailed Sepp Straka as a 66-1 longshot in The American Express 2025. Anyone who followed his lead could have been WAY UP!
Now, McDonald has been digging into the 2025 Masters field to find the best betting value and just locked in his best bets and longshots to back.
For the first major of the year, McDonald loves the value of Sepp Straka, an 80-1 longshot. "Straka ranks inside the top 10 in the world in driving accuracy and iron play so far in 2025," McDonald told SportsLine. "This is the combination that led him to a T-16 finish at the Masters last season."
Moreover, McDonald is jumping on a MASSIVE LONGSHOT who's priced at more than 200-1! This golfer is the "biggest misprice on the board at the moment." Anyone who backs this golfer could cash in HUGE. You ABSOLUTELY NEED to see who it is before locking in any 2025 Masters picks of your own!
So which golfers should you target at the 2025 Masters, and which surprising longshot could bring a MASSIVE PAYDAY? ... Join SportsLine right now to see Patrick McDonald's best 2025 Masters picks, all from the expert who already nailed Sepp Straka at 66-1!
