2025 Masters odds, predictions: Favorites, long-shot bets to make

The 89th edition of The Masters is finally here!

Last week, Marc Leishman won LIV Miami, shooting 4-under on Sunday to put up a 6-under for the tournament. His strong day was good enough to outlast Charl Schwartzel by a stroke. Of the 95 golfers who will play at Augusta in Georgia from April 10 through 13, 12 of those are from LIV.

On the PGA Tour last week, Brian Harman won the Valero Open, closing out with a 3-over-75 for a three-shot victory— his first title since the 2023 Open Championship.

To play in the Masters, a golfer must be invited in one way or another — think of it more as qualifying, despite the language. Being a former Masters champion, or placing well enough in a recent major event, can get you a proverbial ticket to Augusta, which is how most of the LIV participants find themselves heading to Georgia once again for the Masters.

Favorites

Last year’s favorite entering the tournament was Scottie Scheffler at +500, and the 2022 winner of the tournament took home the title for the second time in his career. He is again the favorite this year at +400, followed by Rory McIlroy at +650. The Irishman has won every major except for the Masters, with his best finish coming in 2022 when he placed second. Rounding out the top five are Jon Rahm (the 2023 Masters winner), Collin Morikawa (finished third last year), and Xander Schauffele (finished second in 2019). Check out some other notable names along with their odds to win below.  

After Rahm, Bryson DeChambeau at +2000 and Brooks Kopeka at +3000 are the LIV golfers with the best odds to win the event. Check out some other notable names along with their odds to win below.
