Odds To Win Golf This Week
November 2 A win over the Ravens in Week 8 resulted in the Steelers overtaking Baltimore for the second-best odds to win the AFC Championship October 26 The Steelers’ AFC Championship odds improved from +563 to +416 after beating the Titans to become the NFL’s only undefeated team after Week 7. Patrick Reed, a winner Sunday at Torrey Pines, will make the long trip to the Middle East and begins the week at +1400 odds. Here is a look at the notable odds to win this week’s Phoenix Open.
The 2020 Masters Tournament saw a brand-new scoring record set in the first-ever fall edition of golf’s premier event. Dustin Johnson shot two rounds of 7-under, 65 and finished at minus-20 in a five-stroke victory over Cameron Smith and Sungjae Im to dethrone Tiger Woods and win his first green jacket. Below, we look at the 2021 Masters betting odds, and make our PGA Tour picks and predictions to win.
The Masters will return to Augusta National Golf Club in its usual spot on the calendar from April 8-11, 2021; it will be the first major of the calendar year. The field is not yet finalized, and won’t be until the week before the event, but BetMGM has already released odds for 53 golfers. Now’s the time to start scouting out the PGA Tour futures prices in search of value.

2021 Masters betting picks – Favorite
Odds provided by BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Monday at 7:50 a.m. ET.
Bryson DeChambeau (+1400)
DeChambeau now shares the fifth-best odds to win the 2021 Masters after being the outright betting favorite for the 2020 event. The 2020 US Open champion struggled with his added distance off the tee and broke 70 in just one of his four rounds.
His odds are nearly doubled roughly five months out from the 2021 tournament. It won’t take much (a win or two in the 16 events between now and mid-April) for him to regain pole position as the public favorite. He’s worth a small wager at what could be his highest price for 2021.

2021 Masters betting picks – Contender
Daniel Berger (+4000)
Berger was a notable absentee from the 2020 Masters field. He didn’t qualify in time for the original April date of the tournament, but he was one of the PGA Tour’s most consistent players following the mid-June restart. He won the Charles Schwab Challenge in the first event back and rose all the way to No. 4 in the Golfweek/Sagarin world rankings by the time of the tournament.
Berger has played the Masters thrice before, finishing T-10 in his 2016 debut and never missing the cut. Like DeChambeau, his odds will likely quickly drop upon his return to tournament play.
2021 Masters betting picks – Long shot
C.T. Pan (+20000)
Pan has the longest odds of anyone to finish inside the top 10 of the 2020 Masters. A T-7 finisher, only three players have longer odds for 2021, while Rahm and Koepka are the No. 4 and 5 betting favorites, respectively.
While the 2021 Masters should play much more difficult in returning to its customary spring spot on the PGA Tour schedule with firmer fairways and greens, Pan now has his debut out of the way and some much-needed experience at Augusta National. A relative unknown in North America, his odds likely won’t change too much over the next five months, but he’s worth watching and bettors should pounce quickly if his odds begin to drop.
