The 2025 Masters Tournament Discussion Thread

[B.A.R.]

I figured we should break this off from our normal discussion thread since I'm sure we'll have a few more participating and we can start the discussion a bit earlier as well!

If not this year for Rory, when?

If not this year for Rory, when?

Basically.

I posted this elsewhere but this is, BY FAR, the best golf that Rory has played in the first 3 months in his CAREER.

I do think that The Open is the one he wins this year. Fitting spot in the rotar.

Reno's outrights so far....

All of these played earlier, better prices available...

Dechambeau +1800 (PPH) full unit
Dechambeau+2000 (MGM) half unit
Zalatoris +3300 (MGM) half unit
M.W. Lee +8000 (PPH) one/third unit

I'll attach the last two. I had a hundo to play with at a casino trip and decided to throw a few bucks on physical tickets. I really like Bryson to win a major this year, again. Will Z is brutal value and honestly I was looking for someone over 3000 there. He should be 5000 right now. He was 'okay' at Genesis, Bay Hill and The Players (top 20 to 30th).

So, I definitely don't advise any bets on Will Z. But I played it so will post.

MW bet was posted last week.

Initial Bryson bet was in January. The number is readily available.

Bryson I like. A lot. This year in general.

Otherwise, I'll look for value in tournament. If I can more than 20-1 on Collin that's likely a bet as well.

Luddy an obvious stalk.

Rory n Scottie with slower starts are stalks.

Spieth looks much better with the wrist injury finally healed. I'd love to see it!

Tony has had a weird year. The FOMO effect is real here and at some point he's gonna win one major. Probably only one for the career, but it'll happen. Just, when?

What's everyone's thoughts on Wyndbag? I think I bet him last year and he missed the cut. He has a great price. He drives me nuts though!

Anyways, some early thoughts and a few outrights.

I know the hole in one prop value is dead. We'll see what else we can find next week!

I could be wrong, but Wyndham plays that high sweeping fade(slice) off the tee and I don't think that plays all that well at Augusta. The fairways are generous enough, but some of those windows are pretty tight and if the fairways are their normal firmness, he can get in some bad spots. And while I think he's a pretty good putter, if you aren't on the right parts of those greens, Ben Crenshaw would have some trouble. And they can definitely get in your head and Clark still battles his on course emotions a little bit

I'll be on the ground on Monday if we don't get rained out. I'll try to get some close up intel on who's striking it well.

I'm starting my OAD prep (actually have to pick 2), and it's hard at first glance to not look straight at OWGR #'s 1 and 2. I haven't seen any odds yet, but maybe Xander could have a little extra value? He has a great record there, and has gotten over the hump for winning majors. I'm also looking at some LIV guys since I only have 4 opportunities to use them. I used to think Bryson was a bad fit for Augusta, but last year showed he can be competitive there. I like him more at Quail Hollow, but I could see investing in him next week in some form or fashion. Rahm and Koepka always have my attention in majors, and Cam Smith does at Augusta. Will have to check in with the stats guys to see how their form is looking. Might tune in a little to Doral as well
