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 +380 favorite (risk $100 to win $380) to repeat, according to the latest 2025 Masters odds. He’s followed by McIlroy (+750), Collin Morikawa (+1500), Åberg (+1700), Rahm (+1700), Bryson DeChambeau (+2100), and Xander Schauffele (+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 (+460), 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.

Osmnáctku čeká poslední zápas ve skupině. Soupeřem bude Švédsko
Výkony české reprezentace na mistrovství světa zatím nejsou oslnivé. Sobotní výhrou 4:2 nad Švýcarskem si hokejisté zajistili, že nebudou hrát o záchranu. „Pro nás bylo nejdůležitější získat tři body, což se nám povedlo. Výkon pořád není podle našich představ, bylo to trochu nervózní. Je škoda, že jsme v první třetině nedali gól,“ uvedl Čermák.Postup do play off má se svými svěřenci jistý, ovšem pokud se ve čtvrtfinále chce reprezentace vyhnout zatím stoprocentní Kanadě, musí Švédy bezpodmínečně porazit.Češi jsou v tabulce skupiny B zatím čtvrtí, přičemž ztrácí bod na Němce, s nimiž ale prohráli vzájemný zápas. Švédové mají šest bodů a jsou druzí. Nestačili zatím pouze na Spojené státy, které českou skupinu vyhrají.
Commanders depth chart analysis: How did the NFL Draft help shape the roster?
The monthslong obsession with free agency and the NFL Draft was about how the Washington Commanders’ decision-makers would bolster the roster.

Yet the reason for the depth addition illustrates how Washington factored in available free agents into its draft plan.We knew Washington wasn’t in the first-round conversation here because of the reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year. Re-signing Mariota meant no need for an aggressive QB2 selection in Rounds 2-4.

Aston Villa objecting to Premier League over potential Tottenham game rescheduling
Aston Villa are objecting to the Premier League over a potential scheduling change for their home game against Tottenham Hotspur.The league fixture is due to be played on Sunday, May 18 but Tottenham said in a statement on Sunday that they are in discussions with the Premier League to change the date.AdvertisementTottenham are in the semi-finals of the Europa League, where they face Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt, and the competition’s final takes place three days after the scheduled Premier League game against Villa, on Wednesday 21.Villa’s match against Spurs is the final home match of the campaign for Unai Emery’s side, but the club fear that a rescheduling — likely to be moved to midweek — will mean a shorter turnaround between matches and could disrupt preparations for a defining set of fixtures in Villa’s pursuit of European qualification.Tottenham’s visit comes […]
What’s next for Kirk Cousins, Falcons after QB-needy teams filled spots in NFL Draft?
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — The NFL Draft is over. The Atlanta Falcons have two new edge rushers, two new defensive backs and an offensive tackle.And they still have Kirk Cousins.Cousins has asked the Falcons to allow him to join a team he can start for, whether via trade or release. Atlanta has been steadfast it will not release the quarterback, but the conversations that happen between team executives during draft week often lead to player movement of all kinds, which offered hope for some sort of resolution. Instead, the Falcons still have the NFL’s most expensive backup quarterback.Advertisement“We wouldn’t share any private communication, but really, nothing’s changed with that,” general manager Terry Fontenot said when asked Saturday if he had any discussions about a Cousins deal last week.The Falcons’ stance on a potential Cousins trade hasn’t changed either.“Just like on […]
Zemřel dvojnásobný vítěz NBA Barnett
Barnetta v roce 1959 draftoval jako pětku celek Syracuse Nationals, kde strávil dva roky. Poté hrál za Los Angeles Lakers a od roku 1965 devět sezon za Knicks. V průměru dával 15,6 bodu na zápas. Jeho číslo 12 klub později slavnostně vyřadil z užívání a loni vstoupil Barnett do basketbalové Síně slávy v americkém Springfieldu.
