Brooks Koepka Masters Bets Popular Ahead of Final Round
Coming into the tournament, World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler (+650 at DraftKings) was the biggest sportsbook liability. But in a surprising turn, Scheffler just could never find his rhythm at Augusta National. As the week has progressed, it is now Koepka (+105 entering the final round at BetMGM) who has the highest handle percentage (14.4%) to pull off the win.
Jon Rahm (+175) has the most tickets (8.1%) and the second-highest handle percentage (13.1%) in what is shaping up to be a true two-horse race to the finish.
Koepka built up a lead as big as four strokes before Rahm cut it to two strokes before the two stars tee off in the final group at 2:33 ET.
Koepka is looking to win his fifth major, but first since the 2019 PGA Championship. It would be his first Green Jacket. The 32-year-old struggled with injuries and inconsistent play before making the move to LIV Golf last year. Even he had to admit that he was never sure his game would get back to the form we are now seeing at Augusta National.
“Honestly, yeah, probably, if I’m being completely honest,” Koepka said when asked by a reporter if his decision to leave the PGA Tour would have been more difficult if he were healthy, per ESPN. “I think it would have been. But I’m happy with the decision I made.”
Now Koepka finds himself back in the spotlight after a long fall from grace, and bets show he is currently in a position to give the public a win over the sportsbooks.
