2026 Masters Sunday odds, picks: Proven golf model reveals updated projected leaderboard, surprising predictions

The third round of the 2026 Masters is in the books, setting up for a thrilling Sunday at Augusta National Golf Club. Reigning champion Rory McIlroy entered Saturday with a six-stroke lead, but a third-round 73, combined with a strong day by several others, made his cushion evaporate.

He remains tied for the lead at 11 under with Cameron Young, one shot ahead of Sam Burns (-10) and two ahead of Shane Lowry (-9), who aced hole No. 6 on Saturday as part of his third-round 4 under. 

According to the latest 2026 Masters odds, McIlroy is the +135 favorite (risk $100 to win $135), with Young at +240, Burns at +700 and Scottie Scheffler, who had a 65 on Saturday to move to 7 under, is +1000.
