The 2011 Masters Golf Tournament

You know spring has arrived when golfers and hackers start talking about the Masters Golf tournament. In fact, the offshore sportsbooks like Bookmaker Sportsbook have begun releasing golf odds payouts on who will win the 2011 Masters Golf tournament in Augusta, Georgia this spring.

As usual, the Vegas Sportsbook know they will get some Tiger Woods money, even though he’s not playing his best golf these days, and they’ve put him a +615 favorite over current champion Phil Mickelson (+650). If you wanted to wager on Tiger to win the Masters, a $100 wager will net you a payout of $615 dollars.

Betting on the Masters is a great way to make some money, because some of the current favorites are starting to see their game slip and look for a young newcomer like Anthony Kim or Dustin Johnson to make some noise.
