South African golfer Charl Schwartzel snuck into the top 10 last year at Augusta National in pursuit of his second green jacket at the Masters. The performance was his best since he finished third in 2017, but in between were two missed cuts and two sub-top 25 finishes. After competing in several international tours already this year, could he be a sneaky consideration for your 2023 Masters bets when the tournament begins on Thursday, April 6?
In his last five events overall, Schwartzel has finished in the top 10 once, the top 15 twice, but has also missed two cuts, and the inconsistency is in part why he is 175-1 to win in the 2023 Masters odds on Caesars Sportsbook. He could catch lightning in a bottle once again and surprise the likes of other 2023 Masters contenders like Scottie Scheffler (10-1), Rory McIlroy (8-1) and Jon Rahm (7-1). Before locking in your 2023 Masters picks, be sure to see the 2023 Masters predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
SportsLine’s proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact, the model is up over $8,600 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
McClure’s model predicted Rahm to finish on top of the leaderboard at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions and The American Express. The model also included J.T. Poston in its best bets to win the 2022 John Deere Classic. That bet hit at +5500, and for the entire tournament, McClure’s best bets returned almost $1,100. At last year’s Masters, McClure’s model was all over Scheffler’s first career major championship victory heading into the weekend.
In addition, McClure’s best bets included Collin Morikawa winning outright at the 2021 Open Championship, even though he was listed as a massive 40-1 long shot. The model was also all over Rahm’s (10-1) first career…
