Masters betting: Justin Rose was 80-to-1 to win Masters, is now the big favorite after fantastic first round

https://sports.yahoo.com/masters-be...te-after-fantastic-first-round-224006567.html

For those who bet on Justin Rose to be the leader after the first round of the Masters, congratulations. You had an easy win.

Unfortunately, only 1.1 percent of bettors at BetMGM who wagered on the first-round leader can brag about that win.

Rose shot a scorching first round Thursday at the Masters. He was four strokes clear of Hideki Matsuyama and Brian Harman. Rose was 50-to-1 to be the first-round leader for the few lucky enough to bet him.

That's a nice place to be after the first 18. Rose has shot all the way to the top of BetMGM's odds to win the Masters at +350. Jordan Spieth's late rally lowered his odds to +750 right after he finished his round. He's second behind Rose. That's a massive jump for Rose. He was 80-to-1 to win the Masters before the tournament started.

We can't say nobody saw Rose's first round coming. But only one of about every 100 did.

My friend in Louisiana just won a contest which included two life size cardboard standees of Phil Mickelson. He still has no idea what he is going to do with them. LOL
