The 2021 Masters Tournament is an exciting time to be a sports bettor. Not only is there exciting golf competition to watch, but there are also several different betting markets that just add to the excitement.
There are your typical bets, like choosing who’ll win the tournament or individual matchups, but there can also be more unique prop bets and specials that you wouldn’t necessarily think of beforehand.
BetOnline has released various markets where bettors have to choose which golfer will have the best 2021 Masters performance inside a certain group. For example, you can choose which American will have the best finish or which newcomer will come out on top.
Here are some of the interesting group-related bets on BetOnline.
Who Will Be the Top Debutant at the 2021 Masters?
Odds via BetOnline as of Tuesday, April 6
- Will Zalatoris +125
- Carlos Ortiz +200
- Robert MacIntyre +275
- Tyler Strafaci +1600
- Joe Long +3300
- Charles Osborne +5000
While the 2021 Masters field is filled with people who have competed in and even won the tournament before, there will also be new blood playing at the Augusta Invitational for the first time in their career.
Out of all the Masters debutants, Will Zalatoris has the best odds (+125) of having the best finish. The 24-year-old has been having an impressive season despite not winning a tournament yet. Out of the 14 events he’s competed in during the 2021 PGA Tour, Zalatoris has five top-10 finishes and has only been cut once. While he may not be a favorite to win the 2021 Masters (+12500), he’s likely to have the best performance of all newcomers.
Odds To Be the Top American at the Masters Tournament
Odds via BetOnline as of Tuesday, April 6
- Dustin Johnson +650
- Bryson DeChambeau +750
- Justin Thomas +750
- Jordan Spieth +800
- Patrick Cantlay +1200
- Xander Schauffele +1200
- Brooks Koepka +1600

It’s no secret that the United States will be represented well at the 2021 Masters Tournament. The seven names listed above are all in the top-10 odds to win in Augusta this week, according to BetOnline. Dustin Johnson (+650) has been favored to win the Masters for weeks now, which explains why he’s expected to be the top American in the group. He also won the 2020 edition of the tournament, hence why he’s favored so much.
However, Jordan Spieth (+800) is another former champion and is coming off winning the Valero Texas Open over the weekend. Perhaps he could be a valuable wager option at +800 with the momentum he has.

A “senior” in golf is anyone who is 50 years old or older. While the 2021 Masters Tournament is riddled with younger talent, it has its fair share of elder statesmen. Out of all golfers 50 or above, Phil Mickelson has the best odds to finish on top of this group. He’s won the Masters three times, all within six years between 2004 and 2010. He hasn’t played at that level in years, but he finished T-18th two years ago.
