Bettors are seemingly favoring PGA Tour players over LIV Golf players for the first major of the year. (Image: Getty)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p1\">For bettors, defending champion Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, the latter who would complete the career grand slam with a green jacket on Sunday, are the odds-on favorites. Bettors have placed much money on the two front-runners, causing their 2023 Masters odds to slash from their respective openings of 12\/1 and 10\/1. The duo currently both have the shortest odds at 7\/1.<\/p>\n<div class=\"callout\">\n<p class=\"p1\">Scheffler, who is fresh off his breakout 2022 year that vaulted him to the world\u2019s top ranking, has commanded the most Masters money. BetMGM says the 26-year-old Texan is responsible for more than 14% of its handle as Masters week begins. Scheffler is also on 9% of the BetMGM Masters tickets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">McIlroy is also generating much buzz among bettors. The 33-year-old Northern Irishman who has four major championships to his resume, but zero wins at Augusta, is responsible for almost 12% of the BetMGM Masters money and 8% of the tickets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>At 7\/1, a $100 winning bet would net $700 \u2014 not exactly a great proposition considering there are 88 players in the 2023 Masters field.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Jon Rahm, the world\u2019s third-ranked player, is next at 9\/1. The Spaniard is the only other player with odds shorter than 10\/1.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"LIV_Players_Unattractive\"><\/span><b>LIV Players Unattractive<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Masters is the first of golf\u2019s four majors. The 2023 tournament also appears to be the unofficial start of the PGA Tour versus LIV Golf, as the two tours battle for supremacy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The odds are stacked in the Tour\u2019s favor, as most of the current top players remain on the US-based circuit. But the Saudi-funded LIV tour has a few names who are certainly front-runners for the green jacket come Sunday.<\/p>\n<div class=\"callout\">\n<p class=\"p1\">Not many of the LIV elite are garnering the same backing from bettors as Tour members. For instance, Cameron Smith, the 2022 Open and 2022 Players champion, who also won a LIV Golf event in September, is ranked sixth in the world. Smith also tied for third at last year\u2019s Masters and tied for second in the 2020 tournament.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">After opening at just 14\/1, lackluster betting on Smith has caused BetMGM oddsmakers to lengthen his line to 20\/1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Similar betting lines have been incurred for other LIV players. Brooks Koepka\u2019s Masters odds have swollen from 18\/1 to 33\/1, Dustin Johnson\u2019s from 14\/1 to 25\/1, and Bryson DeChambeau\u2019s from 28\/1 to 100\/1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Phil Mickelson, the face of LIV Golf, is at 200\/1.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tiger_Continues_to_Attract\"><\/span><b>Tiger Continues to Attract<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Tiger Woods hasn\u2019t won a PGA Tour event since the 2019 ZOZO Championship. But the five-time Masters champ, whose last win at Augusta came in 2019, continues to garner much attention from bettors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">BetMGM and other sportsbooks want all the action they can get on the 47-year-old, as most oddsmakers don\u2019t believe he has anywhere near the chance the odds imply.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>Despite Woods being BetMGM\u2019s third-largest liability after accounting for about 4% of the betting tickets and 4% of the overall money wagered, the sportsbook has only continued to lengthen Woods\u2019 Masters odds.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Tiger has gone from 40\/1 to 66\/1. Woods in 2018 infamously said that a lot of \u201cgamble-oholics\u201d like to regularly bet on him when he tees it up in majors.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/masters-odds-rory-mcilroy-scottie-scheffler-betting-favorites\/\" target=\"_blank\">Masters Odds: Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler Betting Favorites for 2023 Green Jacket<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\" target=\"_blank\">Casino.org<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s officially Masters week, the favorite tournament of the year for many golf fans.
