The 2025 Masters is shaping up to be one of the best in years as a star-studded leaderboard is set to take on Augusta National over the weekend. All eyes remain on Rory McIlroy as the Northern Irishman looks for his elusive first Masters win that would complete his career grand slam. He struggled last on Thursday on his way to a first-round 72, but surged back on Friday with a second-round 66 to jump into T3 with Corey Conner at 6 under. They trail only leader Justin Rose (-8) and Bryson DeChambeau (7). The final group tees off at 2:40 p.m. ET on Saturday.
McIlroy is the +330 favorite (risk $100 to win $330) in the 2025 Masters odds from FanDuel Sportsbook. DeChambeau and Scheffler follow at +360, with Rose at +800. Everybody else is +1200 or longer on the PGA odds board, so which golfers should you target with your 2025 Masters picks for Saturday and Sunday? Before locking in any 2025 Masters weekend picks, be sure to see the 2025 Masters 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 $9,500 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 two rounds are in the books at the 2025 Masters, SportsLine simulated the final two rounds 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected 202 Masters leaderboard.
Top 2025 Masters predictions
One surprise the model is calling for at the 2025 Masters: Rose, the leader and one of the top-four favorites, struggles and falls outside of the top five. He’s one of the 2025 Masters weekend favorites to avoid. Rose surged on Thursday with a first-round 65 as he jumped out to a three-shot lead.
He was solid, but not spectacular, on Saturday with a 71 as he gave up two strokes of his lead and also his early status as the Masters betting favorite. Rose has just one career major win and only one top-10 finish at Augusta since 2017, so the model has found better values. See who else to fade at SportsLine.
Another surprise: Tyrrell Hatton, a 20-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He has a much better chance to win it all than his odds imply, so he’s a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. Hatton has progressively gotten better at ANGC in recent years, improving his finishing position in each of the past three Masters.
He finished T9 at Augusta National in 2024, the best performance of his career at this event, and he also has a pair of professional wins since that point, including one in Dubai this January. Hatton sits three strokes off the lead at 5 under, and his first-round 69 and second-round 70 show evidence of the consistency needed to contend over the weekend. See who else to back at SportsLine.
How to make 2025 Masters picks
The model is targeting three other golfers with odds of 25-1 or longer who will make surprising runs on Saturday and Sunday, including one monster longshot that returns around 100-1. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model’s Masters picks here.
