Odds to finish at least Top 10 at the 2023 Masters

The Masters is here and gone in less than week’s time, and that doesn’t give bettors a ton of time to get ready for the player placement bets on the board.

A staple sporting event on the calendar, The Masters is played yearly at Augusta National Golf Club. Being the first major of the season (and the only one to be annually held at the same course since 1934), winning at Augusta can catapult the legacy of any golfer to elite status. Jack Nicklaus (six-time event winner) and Tiger Woods (five-time winner) hold the most wins at Augusta;

But since golf is a field sport (as most individual competitions are), you don’t need to scope out the outright event champion to bring back plus-money profits. As any seasoned golf bettor knows, playing markets such as “Top 10 Finisher” can return money at valuable rates while casting a winning pool ten times larger.

Prior to making a Top 10 play, remember DraftKings’ ties/dead heat rule: If a golfer is tied for a finishing position, the stake is cut by how many other golfers are tied for those spots. Simply, if your selection ends up tied for 10th (assuming you had him/her to finish Top 10) with three other golfers, you will be paid back at a correlated fraction of the full amount.

To increase your chances of selecting a winning wager, let’s keep our eye on the aforementioned Top 10 finisher market. For reference, here are the Top 10’s from the last two years.
