2014 Masters Preview and Betting Tips
When: Thursday 10th April 9:45 PM AEST
Where: Augusta National Golf Club, Augusta, Georgia
This is personally the most exciting Major in golf. It is the only major that is played at the same course each year. I believe this gives the tournament a sense of familiarity and that’s great for golf fans as they can follow each shot with a sense of knowing what lies around each corner.
Augusta National is often thought of as a long (bomb it off the tee) course. You could certainly make arguments for this with Bubba Watson winning in recent years. Although it’s always an advantage the difficulty of the greens and the overall hysteria that surrounds the Masters are just as big a factor as length off the tee.
Tiger is out, but Australia doesn’t mind.
While some of you might disagree with that statement the fact is that two Australians have the chance at becoming the number one player in the world. Defending champion Adam Scott has yet another chance at overtaking Tiger woods. Surprisingly if all the stars align for Jason Day he could also go to world number one.
The Betting...
Redemption. Rory Mcilroy is now ready for redemption at Augusta after the collapse of 2011. With the Aussie's worrying about world golf rankings and Mr Woods out Rory looks poised to take his first Green Jacket.
Best Bet
And so, with that, our "best bet" of the 2014 Masters is..
BET ON: Rory Mcilroy at 13-1
Value Bets
These are our "value bets" for the 2014 Masters.

Zach Johnson is always on my masters radar regardless of how he is playing. He just happens to be in great form with a win and 4 top 10's in 2014 already. Best wedge player from 100 in and a clutch putter. great recipe at Augusta.
BET ON: Zach Johnson at 38-1
Jimmy Walker. I cant believe this guy is paying 70-1. 3 wins already in 2014. Number 1 in fed ex cup standings. Nearly $4 million in earnings this year and still no respect. I hope Jimmy shocks the world and we will be at the windows to collect.
BET ON: Jimmy walker at 70-1
