Scottie Scheffler will begin his green jacket defense when the 2025 Masters gets underway from Augusta National Golf Club on Thursday, April 10. Scheffler, who finished four strokes ahead of Ludvig Åberg last year to record his second Masters victory, will try to become the first golfer to repeat as a green jacket winner since Tiger Woods accomplished the feat in 2001-02. Scheffler will have to stave off many serious 2025 Masters contenders if he hopes to rewrite the history books with Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas, Jon Rahm and Xander Schauffele among the big names chasing the coveted green jacket.
Scheffler, the No. 1-ranked player in the world, is the +400 favorite (risk $100 to win $380) to repeat, according to the latest 2025 Masters odds. He’s followed by McIlroy (+650), Rahm (+1400), Collin Morikawa (+1600), Åberg (+1800), Xander Schauffele (+1800), and Bryson DeChambeau (+2100) on the PGA odds board. McIloy is getting 16.5% of the handle at BetMGM, while Scheffler is getting 13.6% and Aberg is at 9.2%. Should your 2025 Masters picks include backing one of the favorites, or should you target a longshot like Adam Scott (130-1), who won the Masters in 2013 and was 22nd last year? Before locking in your 2025 Masters picks or entering any PGA DFS tournaments on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel, be sure to see the golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
SportsLine’s proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June 2020. In fact, the model is up nearly $9,000 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
This same model has also nailed a whopping 13 majors entering the weekend, including the 2024 Masters (its third Masters in a row) and last year’s PGA Championship and U.S. Open. Anyone who has followed its sports betting picks could have seen massive returns on betting apps like FanDuel, DraftKings and Fanatics.
Now that the 2025 Masters field is taking shape, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard.
2025 Masters predictions for Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Bryson DeChambeau
One shocker the model is calling at the Masters 2025: Scottie Scheffler (+400), a two-time Masters champion and this year’s favorite, fails to finish on top of the leaderboard. Scheffler dominated the field at Augusta National last year, besting the competition by four strokes en route to his second green jacket.
However, no player has successfully defended their Masters title since Tiger Woods accomplished the feat in 2001-02. Scheffler had the opportunity to repeat as champion in 2023 but settled for a T-10 finish, eight strokes behind winner Jon Rahm. Given his extremely short odds, Scheffler is one to fade with Masters 2025 bets.
The model has also locked in its projection for Bryson DeChambeau (+2100), a two-time major champion. DeChambeau is one of the most polarizing figures in the game of golf. He disrupted norms when he came out and said he viewed Augusta National as a “par 67.” However, DeChambeau played well at the Masters in 2024, securing a T6 finish, which marked the first time he’d cracked the top 10 at the Masters. DeChambeau’s Augusta National debut came in 2016 when he earned Low Amateur honors.
On the other hand, the model has examined Rory McIlroy’s chances of winning his first green jacket. McIlroy (+550) is a four-time major champion but hasn’t won a major since 2014 when he finished on top of the leaderboard at the PGA Championship and Open Championship.
With a victory at Augusta, McIlroy would become just the sixth golfer to complete the career grand slam. McIlroy has been close to accomplishing that feat on numerous occasions, including in 2022 when he secured a runner-up finish. He’s already won two PGA Tour events this season, claiming victory at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Players Championship, so he’ll enter the 2025 Masters full of confidence. See the full Masters projections from the model here.
How to make 2025 Masters picks
The model is also targeting four other golfers with odds of 20-1 or longer who will make a strong run at the title. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model’s picks here.

Duell hinter den Kulissen – Watzke setzt sich im BVB-Machtkampf durch
Der Machtkampf bei Borussia Dortmund ist beendet – und der Weg für Hans-Joachim Watzke (66) frei! Der aktuelle Präsident Reinhold Lunow (72) zieht überraschend seine Kandidatur zurück.BVB: Lunow macht den Weg freiAm Freitagmorgen erklärte Lunow offiziell seinen Rückzug: „In den vergangenen Wochen habe ich mit meinem Team intensiv daran gearbeitet, die Weiterentwicklung des BVB im Sinne seiner Mitglieder zu sichern. Besonders wichtig waren mir die aktive Mitgliederbeteiligung, die Berücksichtigung von Fan-Interessen sowie die strikte Beachtung des BVB-Grundwertekodex.

The Wirtz stat you might have missed on his Liverpool debut
“He got brought off on Friday night and probably was not at his absolute best but he still had some silky, lovely touches and when you watch him play, there is something there. I am already looking forward to seeing him next Monday.”Jamie Carragher's verdict on Florian Wirtz's Premier League debut reflected the fact that Liverpool's record signing did not register a goal or an assist in their chaotic 4-2 win over Bournemouth at Anfield. The champions entertained but looked vulnerable too. It raised concerns about Liverpool being too open, both in the full-back positions and due to the inclusion of Wirtz in support of a front three. Against Newcastle on Monday Night Football, Arne Slot might consider using the German in the front three instead.

Kanoistka Řáhová postoupila na MS do finále pětistovky
Čtyřiadvacetiletá Řáhová se ve čtvrtek marně snažila o postup do finále v závodě deblkánoí na 500 metrů, s Kamilou Šímovou dojely v semifinále páté. V individuálním závodě dnes uspěla. V polovině trati sice figurovala až na páté pozici, ale pak se protlačila o dvě místa dopředu. Teťjanu Smylovenkovou z Ázerbájdžánu v souboji o postupovou třetí příčku porazila o pouhých osm setin sekundy.V sobotu tak Řáhovou čeká první velké světové finále. Před dvěma lety byla v Duisburgu na olympijské dvoustovce třináctá. V Kodani 2021 vypadla v závodech na 200 i 500 metrů v semifinále.
Je hanba, že hrajeme v takových podmínkách, zuřil kouč soupeře Baníku
Celje (od našeho zpravodaje) - Ještě než začal hovořit k samotnému utkání a odpovídat na otázky novinářů, zmínil Riera nešťastnou událost. Záložník Zabukovnik zhruba v polovině úvodního poločasu špatně došlápl a v bolestech byl odnesen ze hřiště. Jeho rodinní příslušníci za ním z tribuny hned pospíchali.„Ztratili jsme fantastického hráče, který je pro nás velmi důležitý. Od teď budeme hrát i za něj. Je to dříč, tohle prostě není fér. Nezaslouží si to. Stará se o sebe, je to opravdový profesionál. Počkáme na testy, ale vypadá to opravdu špatně,“ popsal Riera v emocích. Ve slovinských médiích se spekuluje o možném vážném zranění kolena, navíc podle některých z nich měl Zabukovnik po dvojzápase s Baníkem odejít do portugalské ligy.Španělský kouč Celje okamžitě dostal otázku, zda může zranění Zabukovnika souviset se stavem hřiště. To už na první pohled nevypadalo dobře. Bylo rozryté a hrbolaté. „Už jsme o tom mluvili mnohokrát. Je hanba, že Celje coby nejlepší […]
