Want to know who wins the Masters? We did too. So, we put the SportsLine Projection Model to work after Dustin Johnson's back injury. The proprietary computer model -- developed by data scientist Stephen Oh -- uses each golfer's detailed statistical profile to get his precise probability of making eagle, birdie, par, bogey or double bogey on every hole. After simulating the Masters 10,000 times, we came up with surprising results: World No. 35 Thomas Pieters finishing better than that ranking, for example. And there's a first-time Masters participant finishing in the Top 5... Join SportsLine now to see how Dustin Johnson's injury just turned the leaderboard on its head. Plus, see how every golfer finishes!
