Xander Schauffele, Collin Morikawa and Brooks Koepka have won two of the other majors entering the Masters 2026. This extra incentive could up the interest in backing any of the three with PGA bets come Thursday, April 9 at Augusta National. The latest 2026 Masters odds via FanDuel Sportsbook list Scottie Scheffler as the +380 favorite (risk $100 to win $380), with McIlroy at +1000.<\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;re the only players with single-digit Masters odds, but other 2026 Masters contenders include Bryson DeChambeau, as he seeks his first Augusta win, and 2023 champion Jon Rahm at +1200. Schauffele and Ludvig Aberg are at +1600, with the latter seeking his first major championship.

He&#8217;s had a rough start to the 2026 PGA Tour, as he missed the cut in his first event before placing 41st in his second. A big reason for Schauffele&#8217;s struggles lies on the green, where he ranks 76th in total putting after being third in 2024, when he won his two majors. When you factor in that Schauffele also has more missed cuts than top-fives over his last four trips to Augusta, he&#8217;s one to steer clear of with 2026 Masters bets, considering his short PGA odds.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/insiders\/2026-masters-odds-picks-proven-golf-model-reveals-projected-leaderboard-surprising-predictions\/#ttag=02262026_agg_cbssports_picks_golf_pgatour_model_Mastersleaderboard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">See who else to fade here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Another surprise: The model is high on Collin Morikawa, even though he&#8217;s a longshot at +2700. He already has a PGA Championship and Open Championship on his resume, but Morikawa has been more consistent at the Masters than any other major. At no major does he have more top-fives (two), top 10s (three) or top 25s (five) than at Augusta National, which includes top-15 finishes in each of the last four years. The seven-time PGA Tour winner also enters in playing his best in years, as he prevailed at Pebble Beach in mid-February, ending a 45-start winless drought and then followed that up with a seventh place at the Genesis.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/insiders\/2026-masters-odds-picks-proven-golf-model-reveals-projected-leaderboard-surprising-predictions\/#ttag=02262026_agg_cbssports_picks_golf_pgatour_model_Mastersleaderboard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">See who else to pick here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>New to sports betting?
