Tiger Woods is a 15-time major champion and five of those victories have come at Augusta National Golf Club. Now, after withdrawing from the 2024 Genesis Invitational because of an illness, Woods will return for the 2024 Masters. The 48-year-old defied the odds to win at Augusta as recently as 2019 and he hasn't missed a cut at the Masters since 1996, though he did withdraw after making the weekend in 2023. The first 2024 Masters tee times will now begin on Thursday at 10:30 a.m. ET due to weather.

Woods is a massive 100-1 longshot according to the 2024 Masters odds, while Scottie Scheffler is the 13-4 favorite (+325) in the first major championship of the 2024 season. The No. 1 ranked player in the world is followed by Rory McIlroy (10-1), Brooks Koepka (11-1) and defending champion Jon Rahm (12-1) on the PGA odds board.

We simulated the Masters 2024 10,000 times, and there are some MAJOR surprises. Join SportsLine here to see the model's shocking projected leaderboard.

Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact, the model is up nearly $9,500 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.

McClure's model predicted Scottie Scheffler would finish on top of the leaderboard at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players Championship this season. McClure also included Hideki Matsuyama in his best bets to win the 2024 Genesis Invitational. That bet hit at +9000, and for the entire tournament, McClure's best bets returned nearly $1,000!

The model also predicted Jon Rahm would be victorious at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions and The American Express. At the 2023 Masters, the model was all over Rahm's second career major victory heading into the weekend. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the third round, but the model still projected him as the winner. It was the second straight Masters win for the model, which also nailed Scottie Scheffler winning in 2022.

This same model has also nailed a whopping 10 majors entering the weekend, including the past two Masters! Anyone who has followed it has seen MASSIVE returns! Join SportsLine now to see the model's shocking Masters picks from 10,000 simulations!

One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2024 Masters: Justin Thomas, a 28-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He's a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday! The model has also examined where Tiger Woods finishes. Woods enters the 2024 Masters tied with Sam Snead for the most wins in PGA Tour history (82) and was last victorious on the PGA Tour at the 2019 Zozo Championship just six months after his 2019 Masters win. Woods was forced to withdraw from the 2023 Masters after making the cut because of an injury and also withdrew from his most recent PGA Tour start at the Genesis Invitational because of illness.

Also, the model is targeting FOUR OTHER golfers with odds of 20-1 or longer who will make a STRONG run at the title! Anyone who backs these golfers could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any 2024 Masters picks!
