The setup for the 2025 Masters makes it appear as if the first major championship of the season will deliver one of the best such tournaments in recent memory. The two most outstanding players in the world arrive at Augusta National Golf Club showcasing incredible form, and the depth of talent making up the 96-man field is truly astounding.
That makes for a fascinating Masters odds sheet as reigning champion Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy have separated themselves from the pack, but there are plenty of players beyond them that have the game to compete and win at Augusta National.
The Masters is unique among the majors from a betting perspective because it’s the only event that returns to the same course each year. That creates meaningful data points that show who performs well at ANGC and who has struggled to figure out the formula to compete at one of the most pristine courses in the world.
CBS Sports first explores the top of the odds sheet — from the two favorites to the top of the chase pack a bit further down that have plenty of reason to believe they could be slipping into a green jacket come Sunday afternoon. You can also keep scrolling to see the complete set of odds for the 89th Masters and check out 2025 Masters picks plus expert predictions along with an entire ranking of the Masters field from 1-95.

2025 Masters favorites
Scheffler (9-2) is the reigning champion who has won two of the last three Masters, quickly establishing himself as the perennial man to beat at Augusta National. While he has not yet won on the PGA Tour this season, he’s yet to finish outside the top 25 across six starts in 2025 and has a runner-up in Houston as his most recent finish.
Then there’s McIlroy (13-2), whose white whale just so happens to be a green jacket. His quest for the career grand slam has now dragged on for more than a decade, but he comes into this year’s Masters in the best form we’ve ever seen him, winning twice in five starts to kick off the year. The stage is set for a duel between the two best players in the world with both seeking a piece of history. For McIlroy, it’s the elusive career grand slam, while Scheffler can join a select group with three green jackets.
Watch all four rounds of the 2025 Masters with expanded coverage from CBS Sports. It starts Thursday with Masters Live as we follow the best in the world across Featured Groups, Amen Corner and holes 15 & 16. Watch those streams live across Paramount+, CBSSports.com and the CBS Sports App with extended broadcast coverage Saturday and Sunday from 12-2 p.m. on Paramount+ and 2-7 p.m. on CBS.
Other Masters favorites
There’s a sizable gap from those top two to the rest of the top players on the odds sheet because all of the other top contenders have serious questions following them into Augusta. Collin Morikawa (14-1) is a two-time major champion who is consistently in the mix on Sunday but has neither won a major since 2021 nor a PGA Tour event since 2023. Bryson DeChambeau (16-1) had a phenomenal major campaign a year ago, but Augusta National has never been particularly kind to the bomber, most recently going from a Thursday lead in 2024 to a non-factor by Sunday afternoon.
Jon Rahm (16-1) won a green jacket in 2023 but hasn’t gotten back to that elite level in majors since departing for LIV Golf. Ludvig Åberg (18-1) appears to be the next young star and had a runner-up in his Masters debut last year, but he still has to prove he’s ready to win on the major stage at 25 years old. Xander Schauffele (20-1) finally broke through with two major wins in 2024 and has a great history in Augusta, but he has yet to recapture that form in 2025 after missing time with an injury to start the year.
Keep an eye on …
While we all hope for a Scheffler-McIlroy duel on Sunday, golf doesn’t always provide us with the A-story. With the aforementioned questions about the rest of the top seven on the odds sheet, the door could be open for a more surprising winner to emerge. Joaquín Niemann (28-1) carries considerable buzz into Augusta with two LIV wins early this season. Justin Thomas (22-1) has had a return to form after a down year and could reassert himself as one of the game’s best with a second major win. Past champions Jordan Spieth (30-1) and Hideki Matsuyama (33-1) are always a threat to find their top form on the grounds at Augusta National, while Brooks Koepka (30-1) can join some elite company with his sixth major win.

LIV Golf Mexico City: Ripper GC pulls ahead of Crushers GC after Round 2
<!--> MEXICO CITY – Crushers GC Captain Bryson DeChambeau is arguably golf's biggest hitter. Ripper GC Captain Cameron Smith is arguably the sport's best putter. On Sunday at LIV Golf Mexico City, they'll face off for the first time in the final group of a LIV Golf final round.DeChambeau, thanks to a birdie at the par-3 18th Saturday, grabbed a one-shot lead over Smith. Both shot matching 5-under 66s while playing together during Saturday's second round, a precursor to what promises to be a dramatic and entertaining finish at Club de Golf Chapultepec.And if that wasn't enough, the third member of the final threesome is Torque GC Captain Joaquin Niemann, the current season-long points leader. Niemann is three shots off the lead and tied for the low round of the day Saturday with a 7-under 64.ADVERTISEMENT -->"Hopefully Bryson and I […]
Arkansas NIL collective calls on prominent lawyer to enforce Madden Iamaleava buyout clause amid transfer
247Sports FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas' name, image and likeness collective has hired an attorney to pursue and enforce a buyout clause in former quarterback Madden Iamaleava's agreement, CBS Sports has learned.In an unprecedented move in the NIL era of college sports, the parent company overseeing the Arkansas Edge collective has hired noted sports attorney Tom Mars to enforce buyout provisions in NIL contracts at Arkansas, Blueprint Sports CEO Rob Sine confirmed Saturday to CBS Sports. The collective is following the orders of Arkansas athletics director Hunter Yurachek, who directed the collective to pursue buyout money in contracts broken by players in an insistent statement released Tuesday, just two hours after Iamaleava entered the transfer portal.The two former Arkansas players targeted in the initial legal efforts are Iamaleava and former receiver Dazmin James, sources told CBS Sports. A meeting between Iamaleava's […]
Grading the Broncos’ draft
Feb 27, 2025; Indianapolis, IN, USA; Texas defensive back Jahdae Barron (DB04) during the 2025 NFL Combine at Lucas Oil Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Tanner Pearson-Imagn Images Grade: C Best Pick: CB Jahdae Barron, No. 20 Overall What We Liked: Barron is a stud. His extreme versatility along with high-end tackling skills and coverage ability should make him a cornerstone of that defense for a while. In an era that's shifting more toward the idea of "positionless football," the Broncos are charging forward into the future with a defensive back that is the shining example of that philosophy. I also think Sai'vion Jones could work in quickly as a third pass rusher. Not Sure About: In theory, adding a couple skill players for Bo Nix should work for Denver, but these guys don't have the juice. RJ Harvey does not have […]
Nashville sets franchise mark in 7-2 win over Chicago
Apr 26, 2025; Nashville, Tennessee, USA; Nashville SC forward Sam Surridge (9) and midfielder Edvard Tagseth (20) celebrate a goal from a penalty kick in the first half against Chicago Fire at Geodis Park. Mandatory Credit: Casey Gower-Imagn Images Sam Surridge scored four goals and Nashville set the franchise mark for largest margin of victory Saturday, beating the visiting Chicago Fire 7-2 Hany Mukhtar added two goals and one assist for Nashville, while Jeisson Palacios scored, as well. Nashville (5-4-1, 16 points) opened the scoring in the 14th minute after Chicago defender Jack Elliott was called for a foul on Jacob Shaffelburg, resulting in a penalty kick. Surridge powered the ball down the middle of the goal to give Nashville an early 1-0 lead. Nashville doubled its lead in the 22nd minute when defender Palacios got on the right end […]
Grading the Patriots’ Draft
Mar 1, 2025; Indianapolis, IN, USA; University of Georgia offensive lineman Jared Wilson (OL49) answers questions at a press conference during the 2025 NFL Combine at Indiana Convention Center. Mandatory Credit: Jacob Musselman-Imagn Images Grade: A+ Best Pick: C Jared Wilson, No. 95 Overall What We Liked: Lots of rock-solid picks building in Mike Vrabel's first year as the head coach. The offensive line is molding into more of a unit than a series of disparate parts, the Patriots have a new running back in TreVeyon Henderson who can hopefully carry the workload. Kyle Williams gives QB Drake Maye one more weapon. This feels like a draft driven by logic and smart team-building. Not Sure About: It was a little early for Craig Woodson for my liking. Woodson has trouble run-stopping and struck me as more of a developmental player […]
Grading the Buccaneers’ draft
Dec 28, 2023; Orlando, FL, USA; Kansas State cornerback Jacob Parrish (10) celebrates an interception against NC State in the fourth quarter at Camping World Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Jeremy Reper-Imagn Images Tampa Bay Buccaneers Grade: A- Best Pick: CB Jacob Parrish, No. 84 Overall What We Liked: The Buccaneers are really ready to fix what didn't work for them last year, investing heavily in a barren cornerback room and new edge rotational players. Cornerback Benjamin Morrison (No. 53) and Parrish could be a scary duo on the outside and slot, respectively. Emeka Egbuka (No. 19) brings a young face to an aging wide receiver room and could easily become the next Chris Godwin. Not Sure About: Edge David Walker (No. 121) does not have extensive FBS experience and did not shine at the all-star games, so it feels like a […]
