Who will win the Masters in 2022 Odds betting favo
Bettors, rejoice. The first major tournament on the 2022 PGA Tour is here. The Masters will take place from April 7 to April 10, as Augusta National Golf Club looks to crown its newest winner.Hideki Matsuyama earned his first green jacket and first major win ever in
Lou Gehrig Jersey 2021. He will potentially look to defend that title but will face a stacked field of competitors featuring countle s former major winners. Chief among them are Jon Rahm, Justin Thomas, Dustin Johnson, Rory McIlroy, Brooks Koepka and Jordan Spieth. Add in recent winners Scottie Scheffler and Cameron Smith for good measure and it's hard to predict who will win the major event in 2022.That said, bettors have one major advantage in predicting this event. The Masters are played at Augusta every year. As such, you can look back at performance in previous years and see which players are built to handle the course and which aren't. When pairing that with recent performance, savvy gamblers can usually predict which players may be near the top of the leaderboard.There are some wild cards in 2022, of course. Matsuyama hasn't been fully healthy in recent weeks, so if he plays, he may not be at 100 percent. Then, there's Tiger Woods, in his first tour event since 2020 after a car crash he suffered in February of 2021. He probably won't win, but people love to bet on him, especially with his odds looking lower than usual.The 7,475-yard Augusta course will pose a challenge to players. It's one of the longest on the tour, but it won't automatically favor the bigger swingers. Instead, it will favor the golfers with the best combination of power and an approach game, as avoiding long putts at Augusta is critical.Here's everything you need to know to bet on the 2022 Masters, including the latest tournament odds and best bets for the event.Masters Tournament odds 2022Jon Rahm (+900)enters the Masters as the favorite to win, per .

The course has hosted the event since its inception in 1934, though the course has undergone countle s renovations and changes over the years.Augusta National is one of the longest courses on the PGA Tour. The course used to be just
Cameron Maybin Jersey 6,985 yards in length but has expanded to7,475 yards over the last 20 years.Because of the length of the course, strokes gained off the tee (SG:OTT) will be important. Twelve of the 18 holes are at least 440 yards in length, so big hitters will be able to shorten the course a bit and set up easier approach shots.As such, strokes gained approaching the green (SG:APR) will also carry significant importance. Why? Because it is fairly easy to putt at Augusta inside of 10 feet, per . But outside of it, golfers can get themselves into trouble, as Augusta has the highest three-putt rate of any PGA Tour course. So, we'll keep an eye on the best putters inside 10 and the ones with the lowest 3-putt rate as well.With those key stats in mind,Justin Thomas (+1400)looks like the best bet of the favorites. Thomas has the fifth-best approach game on the PGA Tour this season in SG:APR but he has also been a top-15 performer off the tee. His weakne s so
Aaron Hicks Jersey far this season has been putting inside of 10 feet, but as mentioned, it is fairly easy to execute inside of 10 feet at the Masters. The harder part is getting there, but Thomas is equipped to do that.Collin Morikawa (+2000)is in a similar spot to Thomas in that he's excellent both off the tee and approaching the green. He ranks 20th in SG:OTT and 10th in SG:APR this season, so he checks a lot of the boxes we'd look for in a high-end value. His one weakne s this year is his putting, which has been below-average inside of 10 feet (111th-ranked overall). However, he has proven that he can get hot with the putter before, so feel free to trust him in this spot if you prefer his game to Thomas'.If you're looking for a sleeper pick,Shane Lowry (+5500)looks like an appealing option. Lowry mi sed the cut in three of his first four Masters appearances, but in each of the last two years, he has finished within the top 25.It also helps that Lowry is playing some of his best golf to start the 2022 PGA Tour season. He finished second in the Honda Cla sic, 12th at the Players Championship and 13th at the Valspar Championship in his
Dellin Betances Jersey last three tournaments. He ranks inside the top 53 in each of the four main stat categories we're looking at for this tournament, as is particularly good with his approach (14th in SG:APR) and putting (31st in putting inside 10 feet and seventh in 3-putt avoidance).One final name to keep an eye on isHideki Matsuyama (+3500). His numbers suggest that he is a solid bet here, and he proved it last year by winning the tournament. That said, while he looks like a decent value pick, his status will need to be monitored in the lead-up to the tournament as he deals with a neck injury. As such, you probably should
