2026 Masters odds, picks: Advanced golf model reveals projected leaderboard, predictions for Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm

The 90th edition of the Masters is just around the corner, with play set to tee off on Thursday, April 9 from Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Ga. The 2026 Masters has a limited but loaded field, with as many as 20 past winners expected to compete, including Phil Mickelson, Jordan Spieth, Jon Rahm and Scottie Scheffler. Rory McIlroy enters the Masters 2026 as the defending champion, having completed the career Grand Slam with last year's win.

World No. 1 Scheffler is the +480 favorite as he looks for his third green jacket after prevailing in 2022 and 2024. McIlroy (+1000) is next in line in the 2026 Masters odds, with Ludvig Aberg at +1100 to utilize in PGA bets. Rahm, the 2023 winner, is at +1300, with both Xander Schauffele and Bryson DeChambeau listed at +1600. Tiger Woods is a +25000 golf longshot, though he hasn't committed nor ruled himself out of competing.

Now, with the 2026 Masters field locked in, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising.

One major surprise the model is calling for at the Masters 2026: Jon Rahm, the 2023 Masters champion and one of this year's favorites, stumbles and finishes outside the top five! The model has also made the call on some of golf's biggest names, such as Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy.

With a victory at Augusta National, Scheffler would become just the ninth golfer to win three green jackets, and he'd also collect his fifth overall major win. Meanwhile, McIlroy's win last year clinched the career Grand Slam but he's yet to win any tournament since then.

The model has surprising predictions for each of those players and is targeting TWO golfers with odds of +3000 or longer, including one of at least +5000 that could bring strong returns! You ABSOLUTELY NEED to see who they are before locking in any 2026 Masters picks!

So who wins the 2026 Masters, and which longshots make a serious run at the title? ... Join SportsLine right now to see who you can bank on to win, and see which longshots make a run at the title, all from the model that's nailed 16 majors, including three in 2025!
