Odds to win 2018 Masters (4/5/18)
Jordan Spieth 10/1
Tiger Woods 10/1
Dustin Johnson 12/1
Rory McIlroy 12/1
Bubba Watson 15/1
Justin Rose 15/1
Phil Mickelson 15/1
Jason Day 20/1
Rickie Fowler 22/1.....
Tony Finau 100/1

If these are Vegas odds, this is the most blatant troll job ever. Giving Woods the top odds is interesting, to say the least.

I despise the overkill coverage of him. I enjoyed finding out how other golfers were doing since they get no coverage when he is around.

He’s like the Kardashian’s of golf, only talented. You can’t escape the coverage. Major daddy issues. Folk hero to men because he had a beautiful wife and still screwed hundreds of other beautiful women. Curses and has temper tantrums on the course. Whatever, I’ll just go back to muting the coverage.

What? People like him, because at his prime, there was no one that could touch him. He dominated like very few have in their sport. He increased purses for all these young guys, and brought new fans to the game.

I get people not enjoying the overcoverage of him, but he moves the needle, and it's quite crazy how big the viewership swings when he's playing, and playing well.

You sound like he burned you personally.

Or maybe people want to watch him because he's the best to ever do it and they want to see if he can get back to some sort of form.

Also, you can find out how other golfers are doing if you care even just a little bit.

If you think Tiger is the only one to do this, you aren’t paying close enough attention.

That's what odds are, troll jobs to entice people to bet.

Actually Tiger's odds were made to entice people not to bet. If he wins, the exposure Vegas has to him for The Masters will dump their whole golf year. It's the most exposure Vegas has ever had in a golf event.

Sergio cards a 13 on 15. Highest score on any hole in Masters history.

The greens are starting to dry out. These afternoon tee times are going to struggle.

They may be better off though, because tomorrow afternoon looks like it may have more wind than today. Not sure it will matter much since the Masters doesn't have as many tee times as other tournaments.
