When Are The Masters 2022? Dates, Odds, Top Players Not In The Field

With the 2022 Masters less than two weeks away, no golfer stands out as the overwhelming favorite to take home the green jacket. A dozen members of the field have 20/1 odds or better to win the first major tournament of the year.

The Masters start on Thursday, April 7, and conclude Sunday, April 10. Jon Rahm leads the field with +950 odds at FanDuel Sportsbook to win the tournament. Collin Morikawa is the second favorite with +1100 odds. Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas are among the top contenders with +1200 odds to win the Masters.

Cameron Smith, Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson all have +1400 Masters odds. It won’t come as a surprise if Scottie Scheffler (+1600), Brooks Koepka (+1800), Viktor Hovland (+1800) or Xander Schauffele (+1800) finish atop the leaderboard at Augusta.

The Masters field is expected to be missing the biggest names in the world of golf. Phil Mickelson won’t play in the tournament for the first time since 1994 on the heels of his comments about Saudi Arabia’s new golf league. Tiger Woods almost certainly won’t participate in the major because of the injuries from a car accident in February 2021, though his status is technically still up in the air.

Woods is listed as a member of this year’s field on the Masters’ official website. The 15-time major champion has yet to announce whether he will compete in the tournament.

FanDuel gives Woods +5000 odds to win the Masters. It would be considered a minor miracle if Woods competes at Augusta, let alone wins the championship.

Reigning Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama has +2900 to repeat at Augusta. No one has won back-to-back green jackets since Woods did it in 2001 and 2002.
