Posted on Apr 9, 2025 | 09:00am
Come with us now to Augusta, Georgia – it’s time for the Masters.
According to a CBSSports.com rundown of 2025 Masters odds, picks, and predictions, Scottie Scheffler (+400), the top-ranked player in the world, and the reigning Masters champ, is the favorite to don the tournament's coveted green jacket. Rory McIlroy (+650), Jon Rahm (14-1), Collin Morikawa (16-1), Ludvig Aberg (18-1), Xander Schauffele (20-1), Bryson DeChambeau (20-1), and Justin Thomas (22-1) are also considered top contenders. Scheffler is looking to become the first golfer to notch back-to-back Masters wins since Tiger Woods did the feat in 2001-2002. McIlroy, meanwhile, may be the hottest golfer going into the Augusta National – he recently won the AT Pebble Beach Pro-AM tournament, as well as his second Players Championship.
