One of golf's most prestigious tournaments, The Masters, is set to return to the challenging Augusta National Golf Club from April 10-13. With 750 FedEx Cup points up for grabs along with a grand cheque, the field will comprise the world's best golfers from the PGA Tour, LIV Golf, and DP World Tour.
Defending champion Scottie Scheffler will return to the stage in an attempt to grab his third major championship title. With less than three months to go, DraftKings has released an early look into the odds of winning the Augusta Masters this year.
Here's a look into the players with the top 5 odds to win the major championship (via DraftKings):
#1. Scottie Scheffler
Scottie Scheffler is the most favored to win the 2025 Masters with odds of 4-1. The World No. 1's victory at the tournament last year is one for the books as he totaled 11 under par 277. Although the 28-year-old has taken a brief break from golf due to an injury that occurred during Thanksgiving that required surgery, he put up an incredible 2024 season with seven victories.

With odds of 9-1, Xander Schauffele is the second favored to win the Masters this year. Having made seven appearances at the tournament, the 31-year-old has finished inside the top ten four times and missed the cut only once in 2022.
Having captured two major championship victories last year at the PGA Championship and The Open Championship, he placed solo 8th at the Masters. The Olympian recorded his best-ever finish at the tournament in 2019, where he tied for second place.
#3. Rory McIlroy
Rory McIlroy had a stellar 2024 season on the PGA Tour and DP World Tour. With odds of 10-1, the Irishman seeks to win his maiden Masters title. The four-time major championship winner has made 15 appearances at the tournament.
Having tied for 20th place in his first appearance in 2009, he has made 13 cuts and placed inside the top ten 7 times. McIlroy recorded his best finish in 2022, where he finished in solo second place.
#4. Jon Rahm
Jon Rahm has odds of 11-1 to win the 2025 Masters. The LIV Golf star won the 2023 edition of the tournament by four strokes with a 12-under-par score and tied for 45th place in 2024. The Spaniard has made eight appearances at Augusta National and has made the cut all times.
