2026 US Masters golf

The bets:

All £2.50 ew, 1/5 odds, 12 places

Xander Scahuffele 10/1
Cam Young 16/1
Robert MacIntyre 16/1
Patrick Reed 20/1

What happened: 

Round One - Our best-placed selection is Reed (-3), two strokes and two places off the lead. Schauffele is a shot further back (T6th). Young (+1) is Tied 33rd while MacIntyre's race looks run after shooting an opening round 80.

Round Two - As expected, MacIntyre (+7) couldn't turn round the day one deficit and missed the cut. Reed (-6) is tied for second, a distant six shots behind reigning champion Rory McIlroy. Young (T7) is two further strokes back after a second round 67, with Schauffele (-2) tied for 16th.

Round Three - An excellent 65 by Young, and an off day for McIlroy, see the two of them share the lead on 11 under. Reed didn't take advantage of better scoring conditions and is tied for ninth on six under. Schauffele (-4) is tied for 15th.

Round Four - After leading briefly, Young's putter went cold and he finished on 10 under. That was good for Tied -3rd, two strikes behind winner McIlroy. Schauffele had a better final day finishing on eight under (T9th) and Reed clung on to a T-12th place with a final total of -5.

All that each way money brought in £20.08. A profit is a profit!

2026 Players' Championship golf

The Bets: (All £2.50 ew)

Ludvig Aberg @ 16/1

Xander Schauffele @ 22/1
Chris Gotterup @ 33/1
Corey Conners @ 40/1

What happened:

Let's pick it up after the second round...

Aberg leads on twelve under, Schauffele is two strokes behind in second. Conners is tied fourth on -8 with Gotterup further back (equal 42nd at even par).

After round three Aberg was still on top, his 13 under score giving him a three shot lead. Schauffele and Connors are five back, tied for fourth, while Gotterup is on four under (T26).

Aberg fell out of contention on the final back nine, eventually coming home tied for fifth, four shots behind winner Cam Young. Our best-placed selection was Schauffele in third place on -11. Conners missed out on an each way payout by one stroke (T13th) while a poor last day from Gotterup saw him end T56th.

So, two pickups for a total of £24.
