Masters played: 8 (8 cuts made)

Best Masters finish: T2 (2020)

Boasts top-10 finishes in five of the past seven Masters and a runner-up effort that saw him become the first player to shoot four sub-70 rounds. The former world No.2 hasn’t won an individual title since 2023 but found season-best for at LIV Golf Miami on the weekend.

Odds: $51

JASON DAY

Age: 37

World ranking: 36

Best result in a major: champion (2015 US PGA)

Resurgent former world No.1 currently ranked 35 and has finished second, third and fifth at the Masters. Contended in four of his first six tournaments this year.

Best Masters finish: T14th (2022 Masters)

Fresh off a PGA Tour breakthrough at the Houston Open after holding off world No.1 Scottie Scheffler. Lee had four top-20 finishes in his first six events before that and has been top-25 in five of his last nine majors.

Odds: $41

CAMERON DAVIS

Age: 30

World ranking: 58

Best result in a major: T4 (2023 PGA Championship)

Masters played: Two (two cuts made)

Best Masters finish: T12 2014

Tied for 12th last year to secure his return, Davis’s hot start to 2025 has cooled, with four-straight missed cuts. He took a quick break to reset and has a game that suits Augusta.
