What a time in the golf world. 8 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: My friend t Woods back in the news for all 9 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: the wrong reasons, live players back on tour this weekend, 10 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: and it all comes to a head then at the 11 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: Cathriethedral in the Pines. How fired up you are you 12 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,560 Speaker 1: for uh four of the best days of sports, maybe 13 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: of the year. 14 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 2: Oh Masters week, Seth, I don't need coffee this week. 15 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 2: I'm so fired up. Well, all right, that's a lie. 16 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,840 Speaker 2: Maybe a little coffee, but yeah, Spring is in the air, 17 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 2: even though it's still cold here in the Upper Midwest. 18 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: But hey man, the Masters does feel like the start 19 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 2: of golf season around the country. I'm so into it 20 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 2: should be a great year. Conditions seem to set us 21 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 2: up for a classic mass this year. 22 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 3: I can't wait. 23 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, I was looking through my bag cleaning my 24 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: clubs out the other day and I forgot last round 25 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: of the year. I broke my driver, so gonna have 26 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: to fix that bag up. Hopefully I can build up 27 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 1: a bankroll that can, you know, maybe allocate some of 28 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: those funds towards a new driver. Here, and it's gonna 29 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: start with your best bets as known. We're gonna jump 30 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: into top five plays from Pat today for the first 31 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: major of the season. But first a quick reminder, please 32 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 1: give this video a thumbs up. If you enjoy this 33 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: type of content, make sure you subscribe both to the 34 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: Betting Pros YouTube channel and that audio feed as well. 35 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: And now let's go ahead and fire up the wagers, 36 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: Pat starting with one of my favorite markets. You're taking 37 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: and dabble in here the top thirty finishers. 38 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Seth. There's a consensus that the Masters this 39 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 2: year is more wide open than usual. I tend to agree. 40 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 2: It's hard to feel confident about picking a winner. I'm 41 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 2: trying to tailor my betting approach accordingly, with maybe fewer 42 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 2: outrights than usual and more placement bets top tens, top twenty, 43 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 2: top thirties. I think that's maybe the best way to 44 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: make money on the Master this year, So I'm betting 45 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 2: Harris English for a top thirty finish plus ties including 46 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 2: ties at plus one oh eight, And I think the 47 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 2: English for a top thirty bet fits the strategy of 48 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 2: these placement bets over the outrights, and it also fits 49 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 2: my belief that scoring conditions are going to be extremely 50 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 2: difficult at Augusta National this year, considering Augusta hasn't gotten 51 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 2: any significant rain for the last two weeks and they 52 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 2: are not expecting any this week. Course is going to 53 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 2: be firm and fast, and Harris English is a grinder. 54 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 2: This dude does his best work on difficult courses, mainly 55 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 2: because his short game is so good. He's ranked inside 56 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 2: the top twenty five in scrambling and strokes gain putting 57 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 2: in each of the last two PGA Tour seasons. So 58 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 2: far this year he's twenty eighth and scrambling twelfth. In 59 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 2: strokes gain putting. English is just really good at hanging 60 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: around but not seriously contending. He's finished twenty two or 61 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 2: better in three of his last four Masters appearances, but 62 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 2: outside the top ten in all of them, and this 63 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: year on the PGA Tour he's made the cut in 64 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 2: seven of eight events so far, and he's finished inside 65 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 2: the top thirty seven times, and yet somehow doesn't have 66 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 2: a single top twenty sat. Harris English just finished somewhere 67 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 2: from twenty first to twenty eighth in all seven of 68 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 2: those events. In fantasy football, I think we would refer 69 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 2: to Harris English as a high floor, low ceiling player. 70 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 2: I'm going to bet on that high floor with Harris 71 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 2: English for a top thirty plus one away. 72 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: I like to play a lot man. Harris English one 73 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: of those guys, as you mentioned, just kind of hangs 74 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: around right, someone I don't think who has a lot 75 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: of win equity this week, but he is someone we 76 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: know can get it done on these long par fours 77 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: twelfth and strokes gain on five hundred plus yard par 78 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: fours this season, and also six and three putt avoidance. 79 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: And you know, I think we all know as golfers 80 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: that when you get that three put specifically here at Augusta, 81 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: it can really derail your round and derail it quickly. 82 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: So Harris English, a guy who you know traditionally can 83 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: avoid those mishaps on the green, makes him someone I 84 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: think worth investing in here specifically, from a top thirty perspective, Pat, 85 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: Who else do you have on your betting card, Penci 86 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: one of our friends from up north. 87 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, Corey Connors the Canadian for a top twenty at 88 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 2: plus one seventy two. And this is similar to the 89 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 2: Harris English bet in that I am trying to find 90 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 2: appealing placement odds for a high floor player. Corey Connors 91 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 2: has played each of the last seven Masters. He's finished 92 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: inside the top ten and four of the seven, but 93 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 2: didn't crack the top five in any of them. And 94 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 2: Corey Connors is one of the best ball strikers in 95 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 2: the world. He ranks sixth in driving accuracy, sixteenth in 96 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 2: strokes gain, unapproach. The only thing keeping Corey Connors from 97 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: being a superstar is his short game. He is a 98 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,119 Speaker 2: poor putter and chipper by PGA Tour standards, probably pretty 99 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,239 Speaker 2: good by our standard seth but not by the PGA 100 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,119 Speaker 2: Tour standards. And Augusta is known as a second shot 101 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 2: golf course. It demands precision with your irons, guys who 102 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 2: can land the ball in small areas to set themselves 103 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 2: up for easy Birdie Potts. Connors is a ball striking 104 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 2: cyborg who can hit those small targets and give himself 105 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: the easier potts. So yeah, Corey Connors can do that. 106 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 2: We're getting plus one seventy two on him to finish 107 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 2: top twenty, and as true, odds of finishing top twenty 108 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 2: I feel like are closer to fifty to fifty, So 109 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 2: a top twenty for Corey Connors feels like a value bet. 110 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm here for Corey Connors as well. As you mentioned, 111 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: very high up in strokes gained on approach. That second 112 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: shot is really I think what's gonna either keep him 113 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: in contention or potentially lose him a shot at a 114 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: top twenty finish this week. So like that as well, 115 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: and before we keep it moving, I want to remind 116 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: everyone about our sponsor, Omaha Steaks. I first tried Omaha 117 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: a few years back when a listener of one of 118 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: our shows graciously sent me a big old box a 119 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: meat for Christmas, and ever since I've been absolutely hooked 120 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: by their convenience with a variety of eyes options.

It was that fall Masters during the COVID year. 142 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 2: Dustin Johnson ran away from the field in that tournament, 143 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 2: but Sung Jm finished tied for second at fifteen under par. 144 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: Quite a master's debut, and Sung Jim has now played 145 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: in six Masters. He's finished top ten in three of them, 146 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 2: so he's batting five hundred on top ten finishes. Im 147 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: has broken par in twelve of his twenty career rounds 148 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 2: at the Masters. But we are getting great odds on 149 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 2: Sung Jm because he missed the first two months of 150 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 2: twenty twenty six with a wrist injury, and he's been 151 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 2: somewhat rusty upon his return, missed the cut in two 152 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 2: of the four events he's played this year. But Sung 153 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 2: Jim did finish fourth at the Vaalsbar Championship less than 154 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 2: a month ago, maybe an encouraging sign. And look, Augustin 155 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 2: National is just a very predictive course. The same players 156 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: tend to do well on it over and over again, 157 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 2: and Sung Jam seems to be one of those players. 158 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,239 Speaker 2: I think we're getting a very good price on him 159 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 2: for a top ten finish at plus five seventy. 160 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been like a pretty miserable season for him. 161 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: I feel like because of that wrist injury, and honestly, 162 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: Sung Jay is someone pat that as a golf fan, 163 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: I think we all expected to take a big step 164 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: forward the last few seasons, specifically kind of starting with 165 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: that Master's debut and then just never really taking that 166 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: next gear up. But like you said, fifty percent of 167 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: the time here in Augusta, he has just across this 168 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 1: top ten mark and he's been really stellar around the 169 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: green this season as well. So like I think it 170 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 1: makes sense from a low unit investment to take a 171 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: flyer on a plus five seventy. It's it's pretty much 172 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: the price you're gonna get for, you know, a Scottie 173 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: Scheffler outright, right, So and all you need is top 174 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: ten finish to get across the line there. So I 175 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: like that. And speaking of outright, let's move into that 176 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: market with your first outright at your number two best 177 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: bet for the Masters. 178 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 2: All right, I've got to throw at least one long 179 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 2: shot or semi lock shot in here, so let's do 180 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 2: with Nick Kelai Hoyguard to win outright at plus seventy 181 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 2: eight hundred and Hoygard probably is my favorite long shot 182 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 2: this week. And just to be clear, we're talking about 183 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 2: Nicolai Hoygard, not his identical twin brother Rasmus Hoygard. He 184 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 2: was also in the field. Nikolai Hoygard has four top 185 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 2: ten finishes in twenty twenty six, including one on the 186 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 2: DP World Tour at the Dubai Classic. His most recent 187 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 2: tournament was the Houston Open, where he finished seconds. He 188 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 2: was in the final group with Gary Woodland on Sunday, 189 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 2: but Woodland just went berserk in the final round and 190 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 2: left everyone in the dust. Hoyguard ranks thirteenth in driving distance, 191 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 2: thirteenth in strokes gained an approach, thirteenth in scrambling, twenty 192 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 2: third strokes gained putting. He has a statistical profile that 193 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 2: should play well here and Hoygard has only played the 194 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 2: Masters twice before, missed the cut last year, but his 195 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four debut, he shot a first round sixty seven, 196 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 2: briefly held the tournament lead, eventually fell back to sixteenth. 197 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 2: But you know that shows maybe that there was some 198 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: some aptitude from a guy who doesn't have a ton 199 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 2: of experience on this course. It's not like I'm expecting 200 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 2: Nikolai Hoygard to win, but it's seventy eight to one. 201 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 2: I like the pot odds on an ascending young player 202 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 2: was the sort of game that should work at AUGUSTA. 203 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's another one of these players that I think 204 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago we had Oberg, we had 205 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: Hoygard really come onto the scene, and they came on quickly, 206 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: and you know, everyone thought they were gonna be the 207 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 1: next big things. And Hoigard's has had a very good 208 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: career so far this season and just throughout his entire 209 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: stint on the PGA Tour, and I really liked that 210 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: he finished third at the Waste Management Phoenix Open. That 211 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: shows that, hey, no matter how rowdy the crowd gets 212 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: or how big that crowd is going to get, he's 213 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: gonna be nails down the stretch. And I think he's 214 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: really gonna have to lean on probably that elite approach 215 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: and the carry distance, two metrics that he does rank 216 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: in the top ten of the season as well. So 217 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: I like that play. Let's go ahead and keep it moving, 218 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: but before we do, a real quick reminder to track 219 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: your bets, stay accountable and level up.

Your best bet for the 230 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six Masters Tournament. 231 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 2: Is it's Xanders Schoffley to win outrights at plus eighteen 232 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 2: hundred eighteen to one and among the six players with 233 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 2: the shortest odds to win Scottie Scheffler, John ram Bryson, 234 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 2: d Shambeau, Rory McElroy, Ludwig Olberg and Xander Schofflee. I 235 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 2: think Shaffley presents the best value. He finished seconds at 236 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 2: the Masters in twenty nineteen, third and twenty twenty one, 237 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 2: and he has raddled off three straight top ten finishes 238 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 2: in his last three appearances at the Masters. In strokes 239 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: gain ted degreen at Augusta Nationals since twenty fifteen, only 240 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 2: Scotty Scheffler ranks ahead Xander Shaffley, and Xander has a 241 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 2: superb all around game. His putting kind of deserted him 242 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty five, but he seems to have fixed that. 243 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 2: He ranks thirty six. Then Strokes gained putting this year. 244 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 2: His iron play is terrific. He does superb work around 245 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 2: the greens. Xander hits it a long way, which is 246 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 2: always a big advantage at Augusta, and Shaffley is coming 247 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 2: in hot seth. In his last two tournaments, Shaffley finished 248 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 2: third at the Players Championship and fourth of the Valspar Championship, 249 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 2: two events where ball striking is a key. So I 250 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 2: like Xander Shaffley's odds to win at eighteen to one. 251 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 2: I think there's some value here. 252 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 253 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 1: I catch a couple placement props on him so far 254 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: this season, and I think it's really going to be 255 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: on that approach game that he is a factor or not. 256 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: This weekend eleventh and Strokes gained on approach coming in 257 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: and also been really good on those long par fours 258 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: avoiding bogie's at a high clip as well. So Xander 259 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: Schaffley certainly someone who should keep in mind Patlan, it's 260 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: also and done. Who are your Master's rider dies? Is 261 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 1: it Shoffley? Is he the one player if you're in 262 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: a one and done pull or anything else like that 263 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: that you're willing to ride with this weekend? 264 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, in one and Done's in a one and done. 265 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 2: I like John Rom just because limited opportunities to use 266 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 2: the live tour players, and of the majors, I feel 267 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 2: best about Rom at the Masters as opposed to US 268 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 2: Open pgat British Open. So Rom's the one and done pick, 269 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 2: but the other outright, if I'm going to go on 270 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 2: one of the favorites, maybe Rory, like I just he 271 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 2: had so much scar tissue from some of the near 272 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 2: misses at Augusta over the years, and he finally unloaded 273 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 2: the heavy weight on his back last year. I know 274 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: he tweaked his back last month and the last two 275 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 2: tournaments haven't looked good, but he's had some time off. 276 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 2: Now he comes into Augusta free of the pressure that 277 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 2: he had been feeling every other time. So he's another 278 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 2: interesting play, especially since his odds have drifted past ten 279 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 2: to one. Now you can get him at like eleven 280 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 2: and a half to one. Wow, I think so Rory's 281 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 2: not a bad deal there. How about you, Seth, do 282 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 2: you have a ride or die some when you're all 283 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 2: in on this week? 284 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I got two, and I think like all of 285 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: our rider dies and some of your outright picks. Also 286 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: lends to the fact that I don't think it's a 287 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: full fade on Scottie Scheffler, but at his odds and 288 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 1: kind of just the current form he's coming into this 289 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: season as opposed to previous Masters. I do like some 290 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 1: of these other heavy favorites, including John Brahm. He has 291 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: been an absolute cashing machine if you've been betting any 292 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: live tour this season. He has top fives in all 293 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: five events so far this season, two point four average finish, 294 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: and he has an average finish of fifteen point four. 295 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: In his nine Masters appearances, he has not made the 296 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: cut or has not missed the cut excuse me, and 297 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: only has one finish outside the top thirty in that span. 298 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: So I'm going to take the outright ten to one, 299 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: and I'm waiting on some of these sportsbooks to release 300 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: some boosts later in the week. Pat to me knock 301 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: off some juice of a top t twenty finish, something 302 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: he's done in six out of nine Masters, including last year, 303 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: and I mentioned him in the top of the show two. 304 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: But I think Ludwig Oberg someone we need to keep 305 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 1: an eye on. Two three top five finishes in a 306 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: row coming in one of the hottest golfers on tour 307 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 1: right now. The recent forms great tenth in the field 308 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: and strokes gained around the green, fifth in strokes gained 309 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: on those long five hundred plus yard par fours, and 310 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: fourth and strokes gained total. And he does just have 311 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: those two Master starts, but he finished P seven and 312 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: P two, So I'm on the outright right now at 313 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: a plus eighteen fifty and then also taking a MINS 314 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: one twenty four ticket for a top twenty Any Oberg 315 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: for you or John raman your card this week? 316 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 2: Pat not yet on Ram, but it is hard to 317 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 2: argue with the form his stroke average and live tour 318 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 2: events five of them so far this year sixty six 319 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 2: point one. That is a hot golfer. I understand the 320 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 2: appeal with John ram It's just that he hadn't fared 321 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 2: particularly well in the Major since going over to the 322 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 2: Lift Tour. But I think he started to break the 323 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 2: ice there last year, so he's interesting for sure, and Oberg, 324 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 2: I maybe like him for a top five. I just 325 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 2: don't know what kind of a closer he is in 326 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 2: the big events yet. And we've seen him get close 327 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 2: at the Masters, but just hasn't been able to put 328 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 2: on that finishing kick yet. 329 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: All right, and that's going to do it for us 330 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: on this episode of the Betting Pros Podcast.
