2022 Masters Tournament CashBet Odds Overview

“A Tradition Unlike Any Other.”  So goes the perfect moniker of CBS announcer Jim Nantz, the revered “Voice of the Masters” on CBS TV.  Late on, the Masters Tournament has seen tremendous sportsbook odds parity.

Since the decline of the great Tiger Woods and his rival Phil Mickelson, there is no dominant player in the game.  Squares that don’t know golf are lost.  They can no longer mindlessly bet on Woods and Mickelson.  Now, the Masters is much more difficult for casuals to work with.  But for enthusiasts, golf has never been better.  The Masters Tournament has never offered more potential winners.  An example is defending champion Hideki Matsuyama.  Nobody saw him emerging as the 2021 Green Jacket winner.

Defending champions are not good bets the following year from a betting perspective.  Fashion that Tiger Woods was the last repeat champion in 2001 and 2002.  And then Nick Faldo won in 1989 and 1990.  Previously, Jack Nicklaus scored back-to-back Masters titles in 1965 and 1966.  Thus, betting on the defending champion is lighting a match to one’s cash.

Dustin Johnson Seeks Comeback Campaign

In 2020, Dustin Johnson had a breakout season that changed his career.  To show, Johnson won the FedEx Cup championship and was named PGA Tour Player of the Year.  That year Johnson was the winner of the PGA Championship.  Most important of all, Johnson won the 2020 Masters Tournament.  When he was fitted at Butler Cabin with the coveted Green Jacket, Dustin was legitimized with fans and gamblers.

On the whole, his past transgressions were forgiven in 2020.  Once upon a time, Johnson had frustrated fans and bettors for being an unfulfilled promise.  But in 2020, he became the golfer that everyone always expected him to be.

However, Johnson reverted to his old ways in 2021.  And gamblers paid the price for his backsliding.  To be exact, Johnson seemed to have a championship hangover in 2021.  Following a ranking #1 on the Official World Golf Ranking most of the year, he fell to 2nd by the season’s end.  Now gamblers wonder which version of Johnson will emerge for 2021.  To summarize, he has just one win since the 2020 Masters title.  That Golf Betting odds payout came a few weeks later at the Saudi International.

Rahm Ready for More?

In like manner to Johnson in 2020, the 2021 campaign was a breakout season for Kon Rahm.  He won his first Golf Betting Lines major with a victory in the 2021 US Open.  Also, Rahm was named the 2021 PGA Player of the Year.  His best finish at the Masters was 4th in 2018.  Rahm ranks #1 on the Official World Golf Ranking.

Jon Rahm is an understandable Masters favorite with the Golf Betting Lines.  Accordingly, it should be his tournament to lose.
