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 +450 favorite (risk $100 to win $450) to repeat, according to the latest 2025 Masters odds, up from +380 in recent days. He’s followed by McIlroy (+550), Åberg (+1500), Rahm (+1500), Collin Morikawa (+1700), Bryson DeChambeau (+1700), and Xander Schauffele (+1900) on the PGA odds board. 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 (+450), 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 (+1700), 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.

Mirtle: Where and how the Maple Leafs need to be better to win Game 5
If you had asked any Maple Leafs players, staff members or fans four weeks ago, they would gladly take Toronto being in this situation right now.They won the division and possess a 3-1 lead over the underdog Ottawa Senators in the first round. They’re healthy and they also have Game 5 at home, where they can pull off an early elimination and get nearly a week of rest as they await whoever from the AHL rosters is left standing from the war of attrition that is the Battle of Florida.AdvertisementSo, yes, this column is a bit nitpicky. In general, Toronto is in a good spot. But when you’re the Leafs, and you’ve won only one of a dozen elimination games in recent memory, some nits are going to get picked.The Leafs did some good things in Game 4, especially when […]
Why the Jets’ ‘best of three’ series vs. Blues is 3 years in the making
ST. LOUIS — The Winnipeg Jets got outscored 12-3 in two games. They were dominated in Game 3, then started well enough in Game 4 to create a little bit of hope before their late-game implosion. Their Vezina-caliber goaltender got shelled — again — and despite some bad luck, Connor Hellebuyck contributed directly to one of St. Louis’ goals. Again.AdvertisementBut the Winnipeg Jets did not lose their series in St. Louis.There is also truth behind Blues coach Jim Montgomery’s series of verbal daggers after Game 4.“I thought we started to get to our O-zone time,” Montgomery said. “And I think we’re owning the net front. And our goaltender’s making saves.”Long pauses between each statement added impact to all three of those thoughts, especially the last one. Whether intended this way or not, Montgomery’s goaltending comment sounded double-edged and sharp: His […]
