The Masters is one of the most iconic annual golf tournaments with the honor of donning the champion's green jacket as one of the most coveted items in the sport. Entering the Masters 2026, which tees off on Thursday, 18 golfers have earned that honor at least twice as multi-time winners. Two of them will participate in the 2026 Masters field, one as the heavy favorite and the other as one of the longest of longshots for 2026 Masters bets. Scottie Scheffler, who won the Masters in 2022 and 2024, is the +500 favorite in the latest 2026 Masters odds, while Bubba Watson, who won in 2012 and 2014, is a +50000 longshot to win the Masters 2026.

After breaking through at last year's Masters to become the sixth Grand Slam champion in history, McIlroy has his first chance at becoming the 19th multi-time Masters winner when the defending champion tees off at Augusta National Golf Club. McIlroy has +1300 odds to repeat, behind only Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau (+1000) and Jon Rahm (+1000) in the latest golf betting odds. Before making any 2026 Masters picks, you need to see the 2026 Masters predictions from golf expert Brady Kannon.

Kannon is an elite golfing betting expert with more than 30 years of experience in the industry. He has called eight major winners since 2013 and hit six PGA winners, including 110-1 longshot Harris English at the Farmers Insurance Open, in 2025. He also hit on Matt Fitzpatrick (15-1) at the Valspar Championship on March 22 for an outright winner. Additionally, he's 32-27-4 on head-to-head picks since joining SportsLine.

Now, Kannon has focused his attention on the 2026 Masters field and locked in his predictions, sleepers and golfers to avoid. You can only see them here.

Top 2026 Masters expert picks

One of Kannon's 2026 Masters predictions: Kannon is fading Tyrrell Hatton in outright picks and looking to fade him in head-to-head selections. Hatton has only one top-10 finish in eight Masters tournaments, missing the cut twice and finishing outside the top 40 in five of those eight career Masters appearances. He's winless in 40 career majors with only two top-five finishes in golf's biggest tournaments. Over the last three years, he's finished 20th or worse in seven of his 12 major tournaments.

Hatton, 34 and now competing for LIV Golf, had only one PGA Tour victory before leaving for LIV, winning the Arnold Palmer in 2020. Kannon predicts Hatton will struggle at another major and have a poor showing compared to others in his odds range this weekend.

"His game has been quite inconsistent on the LIV circuit this season with finishes of 47-45-and-38 wrapped around a third and a 10th," Kannon told SportsLine. "The Masters, or any major really, is not necessarily receptive to volatility in one's current game. Remember here, we are dealing with 50-some players on LIV and Hatton ranks 44th in Scrambling, 33rd for Greens in Regulation, and 27th in Putting Average. Normally, I might say Hatton is worth a look at a top 20 finish but with the way he's been all over the place this season on LIV, another missed cut at the year's first major championship could be in Hatton's near future." See who Kannon is backing at SportsLine.

How to make 2026 Masters picks

Kannon has revealed his best bets, and he's targeting several longshots, including one who returns more than 80-1 and "has a legitimate shot to make quite a bit of noise this week." He's a perfect course fit, and anyone who backs him could hit it big. You can only see who it is at SportsLine.
