The first major championship of the year is rapidly approaching with the 2025 Masters starting on Thursday, April 10 at Augusta National Golf Club. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler headlines the 2025 Masters field and will be looking to defend his title. A win at Augusta would net Scheffler his third green jacket in four years and make him the ninth player ever to win three or more Masters titles. Scheffler is the +400 favorite (risk $100 to win $400) in the 2025 Masters odds.
Other top 2025 Masters contenders include Rory McIlroy (+650), Collin Morikawa (+1500), Ludvig Aberg (+1700), Jon Rahm (+1700), Bryson DeChambeau (+1700), Xander Schauffele (+2100), Bryson DeChambeau (+2100), and Justin Thomas (+2400). McIloy is getting 16.5% of the handle at BetMGM, while Scheffler is fetching 13.6%. The 2025 Masters purse will be revealed during the week of the tournament but is expected to at least match last year’s mark of $20 million and winner’s share of $3.6 million. The winner will once again receive 750 FedEx Cup points.
With a massive purse on the line, it is imperative to nail your 2025 Masters one and done picks. Should you use this event to target a favorite like Scheffler or McIlroy? Would it make sense to take a long shot like Joaquin Niemann (50-1), Dustin Johnson (55-1) or Patrick Reed (90-1)? Before locking in your 2025 Masters one and done picks, you need to see what SportsLine DFS pro and PGA expert Mike McClure has to say.
The One and Done format is growing in popularity. It has several noticeable similarities to NFL Survivor pools with the main difference being entries are not eliminated with a bad week. Players pick one golfer per week and earn points based on their selected golfer’s prize money for that tournament. Golfers can only be used once per season, and the point format makes nailing majors and big money tournaments critical.
McClure is a DFS legend with over $2 million in career winnings, and he’s been red-hot on his PGA picks dating back to the PGA Tour restart in June of 2020. McClure uses his proprietary simulation model to analyze the field and crush his golf picks. In fact, the model is up more than $9,500 on its best bets since June 2020, 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.
McClure has been nailing his One and Done picks for the last two years, correctly calling Nick Taylor’s epic win at the RBC Canadian Open as well as Scottie Scheffler’s and Jon Rahm’s victories as the Masters. More recently at the 2025 Genesis Invitational, a signature PGA Tour event, McClure’ top One and Done pick, Ludvig Aberg, outlasted the field for an outright win. The 26-year-old took home a massive $3.6 million payday for himself and gave his OAD backers a huge bump in their pool’s standings.
Now, McClure has dialed in on the 2025 Masters golf tournament and just locked in his one and done picks and PGA predictions. They are a must-see for any player looking for an edge in their One and Done pool. You can only see McClure’s Masters one and done picks at SportsLine.
Top 2025 Masters One and Done picks
One of McClure’s top One and Done picks for the 2025 Masters is Rory McIlroy (+650). The 35-year-old needs a win at Augusta National to complete the career major Grand Slam, and he will be looking to win his first major since the 2014 PGA Championship. In four total starts this year, McIlroy has notched wins at The Players Championship and the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, and he finished T17 at the Genesis Invitational and T15 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
McIlroy has 28 career PGA Tour wins, and his best finish at the Masters came in 2022 when he finished in sole possession of second place. He enters the 2025 Masters in top form, ranking first on the PGA Tour in both total strokes gained (2.289) and strokes gained off-the-tee (0.905). He also ranks third in strokes gained tee-to-green (1.684). McClure has McIlroy projected to be in contention until the end at the 2025 Masters. You can see who else to back at SportsLine.
How to make Masters 2025 One and Done picks
McClure is also targeting another golfer for his 2025 Masters One and Done picks who was outstanding throughout the 2024 season and is a 31-1 longshot. This player has championship pedigree and has the ability to win any tournament he enters. You can find out who it is and check out all of McClure’s Masters one and done picks at SportsLine.
Who will win the the Masters 2025, and which golfers should you target for your PGA one and done picks? Visit SportsLine now to get Mike McClure’s Masters 2025 one and done picks, all from the DFS pro who nailed Ludvig Aberg’s outright win at the Genesis Invitational, and find out.

2025 Kentucky Derby post positions, morning line odds: Gate assignments for all 20 horses in the field
Getty Images The 151st running of the Kentucky Derby is set for next Saturday, May 3 at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. On Saturday the 20 horses in the Derby field learned what post they would be running out of.The favorite, Journalism (3-1), drew the 8 post, while the only other horses with single-digit odds find themselves on the far outside of the starting gate. Sovereignty (5-1) drew the 18 post while Sandman (6-1) is alongside in the 17th position -- the only gate to never produce a Kentucky Derby winner. That means Sandman will have to look to make history next Saturday from that outside post. Last year's winner, Mystik Dan, won from the 3 gate, becoming the first horse to do so since 1998. The longest drought of any post aside from 17's 150-race winless streak belongs to the […]
Lions 2025 NFL Draft takeaways: Most needs were met, but was one edge rusher enough?
ALLEN PARK, Mich. — Brad Holmes, for the final time this weekend, was on hand Saturday to put a bow on the 2025 NFL Draft, after welcoming seven new players to the Detroit Lions franchise he’s overseen for five of these events now.However, it wouldn’t be draft weekend without Holmes defending his selections and process, despite his track record of success.Advertisement“I think the tough part about it is that the people on the outside, they have very limited information about the decisions that we make and we have all the information which goes into that decision,” he said. “Also, not just the information that’s available, but also the work that we have to put into it. … And so someone that doesn’t do that work or has that information available to them, they don’t know that, so they’re going to […]
