Masters Line Movement: McIlroy, DeChambeau Odds Plummet, Thomas and Fitzpatrick on the Rise

We're officially in the middle of Masters week, and with only two more sleeps until the opening tee-shot, odds to win this year's Green Jacket have begun to shift.

Let's take a look at the biggest risers and fallers in the latest odds to win the 2022 Masters. All odds listed below are via WynnBET Sportsbook.

Masters Odds Biggest Risers

Justin Thomas from +1600 to +1300

I wrote my betting preview for the Masters this past Sunday, and I locked in Justin Thomas as one of my outright picks at +1600. Now, just two days later, he's dropped to +1300 and is now the solo second favorite on the odds list behind only Rahm at +1200.

In my opinion, the movement is for good reason. As I pointed out in my keys to winning the Masters article, there are three major stats that you need to keep an eye on at Augusta and Justin Thomas is one of only two golfers who currently ranks in the top 10 in all three. We'll see if he can deliver.

Matt Fitzpatrick from +5000 to +4000

Just like Thomas, Fitzpatrick is another outright bet of mine whose odds have dropped since writing my preview on Sunday. Another thing he Fitzpatrick has in common with Thomas, is that he's the other golfer that ranks in the top 10 in all three major indicators of success at Augusta.

The Englishman has yet to win on North American soil, so we'll se if he can get it done for the first time this week.

Tiger Woods from +8000 to +6000

WynnBET had the best odds on Tiger out of most sportsbooks you can bet at, and despite the movement, they still do. After Tiger announced in his press conference today that he expects to play on Thursday, WynnBET eventually had to drop his odds from +8000 to +6000 which is where he stands now.

Masters Odds Biggest Fallers

Bryson DeChambeau from +3000 to +5600

Bryson DeChambeau missed the cut at last week's Valero Texas Open and shot an ugly 76 on Friday. That result largely played into his odds to win the Masters falling by almost double. In just two days, he went from +3000 to +5600 which is where he stands now.

DeChambeau has been dealing with injuries for a large part of 2022, and while he's been healthy enough to compete the past two weeks, he doesn't look even remotely like his formerly dominant self. It doesn't help that his best finish at Augusta is T21.

Rory McIlroy from +1600 to +2000

Just like DeChambeau, Rory McIlroy missed the cut at last week's Valero Texas Open, which was generally a weak event, and its caused his odds to fall. Believe it or not, I actually think this now makes him a bit of a value play this week as he tries to complete the career grand slam.

He's still one of the best golfers on Tour, and he seems to play his best when nobody expects him to win, and when the spotlight is off him. With everyone's attention on Tiger this week, it could be a sneaky time to play McIlroy.
