2008 US Masters: Tiger Woods on top, Phil Mickelson tenfold

2008 US Masters: Tiger Woods on top, Phil Mickelson tenfold Despite the slight delay due to rain, the 72nd Masters is underway, following the opening ceremonial drive down the first fairway by golf-legend Arnold Palmer. And it comes as no surprise that Tiger Woods is once again the ultimate favorite to win the US Masters. Woods is currently listed with odds 1/1 to win the golf tournament at the online bookmaker Bodog Sports, the lowest betting odds ever for a player at the outset of a major, paying out even money to win his fifth Masters title.

But if the chance to double your money seems too low for you, Phil Mickelson, Vijay Singh and Padraig Harrington offer the best chance to break the book. Phil Mickelson is currently second on the betting sheets, listed with odds 10/1 to win the 2008 US Masters, a bet many punters take on the side as insurance if Tiger Woods somehow fails to deliver this year. Vijay Singh would pay out on odds 18/1 and Padraig Harrington is sitting on odds 25/1 to win the 2008 US Masters at Bodog Sports.
