Matt Wiley expressed a strong negative opinion regarding Jon Rahm’s chances at Augusta, primarily due to Rahm's subpar performance at last year’s Masters despite excellent form entering the event. Wiley suspiciously mentioned the distractions surrounding Rahm, particularly his family's expansion with the birth of his third child, suggesting that these family commitments are impacting Rahm's competitive edge needed in majors. Wiley reinforced that Rahm's lacklustre appearance last year, especially compared to his usual standards, and his family-related distractions lead Wiley to significantly downgrade Rahm's potential to win or even seriously contend at this year's Masters, despite Rahm's acknowledged desire for redemption.

Eric Polzin suggested betting Jon Rahm under 4.5 birdies or better, citing tougher expected playing conditions at Augusta National. Polzin pointed out a small middling opportunity, noting the line of 4 birdies on PrizePicks compared to 4.5 on Better, suggesting Rahm would likely land exactly at 4 birdies. He advocated splitting bets across platforms to capitalize on these differences and maximize potential returns.

Pamela Maldonado recommends betting Jon Rahm to finish in the top-10 (+170) at the 2025 Masters. Rahm had an uncharacteristically weak performance at Augusta last year (T45) amid a rare slump in his approach game. Maldonado believes this dip was an anomaly during a period when Rahm was battling physical and mental issues. She points to Rahm's otherwise stellar Masters record, including three top-10 finishes in his past five visits and a green jacket win. Rahm's recent form has improved dramatically, regaining his reliable approach game and overall completeness. Maldonado anticipates Rahm's form will translate well into this major, especially given his proven capability in Augusta conditions.

Rick Gehman flagged Jon Rahm as notably overlooked despite outstanding LIV Golf statistics entering Augusta, including leading the tour in birdies and multiple scoring metrics. Gehman acknowledged Rahm's unusually quiet major year previously due to injury (foot issue at US Open), but re-emphasized Rahm’s historically strong performances, especially at Augusta. Given improved form and health, Gehman implied Rahm represents sneaky high-upside value relative to attention-grabbing competitors like Bryson DeChambeau.

Brady Kannon identifies Jon Rahm as strong value at 16-1 odds, highlighting Rahm's reliable performance in major championships and recent stellar results on LIV Tour, with two wins and consistent top-10 finishes. Rahm won the Masters in 2023, also having victories at correlated courses like Kapalua and Riviera. Kannon emphasizes Rahm's top-10 consistency at Augusta (including one victory) alongside the Masters betting trends; Rahm checks the boxes for recent wins and major championship form, making his odds appealing given his impeccable track record at Augusta.

Derek Farnsworth suggested Jon Rahm might provide DFS value and contrarian leverage at the 2025 Masters. Rahm is not popular currently after joining LIV golf and has only won twice there, but Farnsworth highlighted Rahm's motivation and consistent top-10 finishes in LIV events. Rahm is eager to restore recognition as an elite golfer, and Derek argued this Masters represents the perfect opportunity and big stage for Rahm to demonstrate his top-level game.

Wes Reynolds targeted Jon Rahm at 33-2 odds, believing Rahm is flying under the radar because of his move to LIV Golf. Rahm hasn't won a major since the 2023 Masters, but his performance on LIV has been consistently strong, with all five of his 2025 events resulting in top 10 finishes (T-2, 6th, T-6, T-5, T-9). Reynolds points out that last year's struggles were tied to off-course distractions surrounding LIV and a foot infection suffered around the U.S. Open. Now settled and entering the Masters without media turmoil, Rahm appears undervalued and poised for a renewed push at Augusta, according to Reynolds.

Sean Fairholm argued bettors are overlooking Jon Rahm (+1600), seeing strong potential for a successful Masters appearance. After experiencing emotional fallout from leaving for LIV Golf—resulting in a poor major season in 2024—Rahm has quickly rebounded with renewed clarity, recording two late-season LIV victories and five straight top-10 finishes in early 2025. Fairholm highlighted Rahm's stellar Augusta resume, including the 2023 Masters victory and multiple other top-10 placements, marking him among the safest bets for a top-10 finish (+170) given his steady play and heightened motivation.

Brad Thomas highlighted Jon Rahm as the best betting selection in the 'top LIV golfer' category for this year's Masters Tournament. Rahm's odds have already moved significantly from +2000 down to +1300, indicating sharp market support. Over the past 36 rounds, Rahm has gained the most strokes on average among LIV players. He's currently in excellent form, securing five straight top-10 finishes, including two finishes inside the top five. Thomas noted Rahm's recent strong play off the tee, putting performance, and boosted confidence are ideal indicators going into Augusta.

Matt Chivers highlighted Jon Rahm as an excellent betting selection for the 2025 Masters at 16/1 odds due to several strong factors. Rahm's Augusta record includes five top-10 finishes since debuting in 2017, notably a victory in 2023, when he shot a final-round 69 to win by four strokes. Rahm's play aligns perfectly with Augusta's demanding setup; he excelled off the tee (318-yard driving average), scrambling (ranked 3rd), and greens-in-regulation (1st) in the LIV Golf League in 2024. Length and short-game prowess are crucial at Augusta, and Rahm excels in both, consistently generating birdie opportunities. Despite transferring from the PGA Tour to LIV Golf and competing less frequently, Rahm has remained sharp, consistently finishing in the top 10 at LIV events worldwide. DataGolf metrics confirm Rahm has maintained elite performance, consistently placing in the top 5 in global player rankings, with a birdie-heavy scoring rate and over 75% greens-in-regulation hit, making him a strong betting value for this major tournament.

Matt Bonesteel recommended backing Jon Rahm for Masters contention, despite competing in LIV Golf. Rahm won the Masters two years ago and has consistently finished in the top-10 in events since his 2024 missed cut at the PGA Championship. Bonesteel acknowledged Rahm's LIV Golf success might seem less impressive due to weaker competition but emphasized Rahm's pronounced Augusta track record, including four top-10 finishes beyond his victory. Despite widespread hype around Joaquín Niemann, Rahm's strong Augusta history coupled with consistent form makes him a strong value at +1400.

Chris Gregory highlighted Jon Rahm as a potential valuable betting target at +1400 odds entering the 2025 Masters. Rahm, who won the Masters back in 2023, has showcased exceptional and consistent form since joining the LIV Golf circuit. He has recorded five consecutive Top 10 finishes to kickstart the LIV Golf season, extending a remarkable streak to 17 consecutive Top 10 performances overall. While Rahm had a relatively underwhelming T45 finish at the previous Masters in 2024, he finished strong last summer with a T7 at The Open Championship and T5 at the Olympics. Gregory stressed Rahm's consistent performance could indicate the Spaniard is undervalued and flying under bettors' radar compared to popular picks like Scheffler and McIlroy.

Dave Tindall likes Jon Rahm to strongly contend at the 2025 Masters and recommends backing him for a top-5 finish. Rahm won the event in 2023 and has shown consistently excellent form at Augusta, posting one win, two additional top-5s, and two more top-10s over the past seven years. Despite struggling in his title defense the previous year due to extra distractions as defending champion, including Champions Dinner duties, media demands, and LIV speculation, Rahm has looked solid on the LIV Tour this season. Tindall emphasizes Rahm's four consecutive top-10 Masters finishes from 2018-2021 as clear evidence Augusta National suits his skillset, making the Spaniard an appealing top-5 bet at odds of 4.7.

Cam Stewart advised not to overlook Jon Rahm for the Masters despite recent issues closing tournaments, notably his struggles on the back nine on Sunday and a disappointing showing at the Olympics. Stewart emphasized Rahm's exceptional skillset as ideally suited for Augusta National. While acknowledging Rahm's current inability to seal victories—having led tournaments and subsequently disappointed late—Stewart described Rahm as a 'sleeping bear' who could easily awaken and dominate Augusta, especially as narrative focuses elsewhere (such as Rory McIlroy). Stewart doesn't plan on betting Rahm personally but strongly supports the logic behind backing Rahm given his talent and Augusta fit.

Skylar Hoke strongly advised caution when considering Jon Rahm at odds around 14 to 1, pointing out Rahm's struggles since moving to LIV Golf. Rahm took a surprising 12 events on LIV before finally securing a win and has managed only modest finishes so far in 2025 (2nd, 6th, 6th, 5th, and 9th) against small, less competitive fields. Additionally, Rahm missed the cut in his lone DP World Tour event this year and showed poor major championship form in 2024, including a withdrawal from the U.S. Open due to a foot injury. Given these concerns, Hoke sees diminished value in backing Rahm at current market odds without a corresponding discount.

Bo McBrayer expressed reservations about betting on Jon Rahm at his current odds of +1300 for the Masters. Although Rahm has a stellar track record at Augusta, including winning multiple years ago, McBrayer noted Rahm hasn't demonstrated the same dominant peak form or killer instinct lately on the LIV Tour. Despite multiple top-10 finishes, Rahm has yet to win on LIV Tour this year, leading McBrayer to doubt Rahm possesses the required hunger and intensity to win at Augusta this year. McBrayer advised bettors to avoid Rahm unless his odds drift further to around +1500 or +1600, citing the exceptional strength and depth of the Masters field as another reason for caution.

Brandon Gdula finds Jon Rahm interesting because of his excellent historical record at Augusta—four straight top-10 finishes before last year's 45th place finish due to cold putting. While Rahm's LIV Tour form remains solid (13th in adjusted strokes gained across all tours the past three months), Gdula sees his current 14-to-1 outright price as buying at the peak, leaving little value for outright bets. However, at the DFS price of $11,800 on FanDuel, he considers Rahm more attractive for DFS contests than betting.

Andy Lack expressed increasing interest in Jon Rahm as a betting opportunity at around 20/1 odds for the Masters, despite the uncertainty related to evaluating LIV Tour player form against PGA competition. Andy acknowledges Rahm has consistently posted top finishes in LIV events without outright victories, complimenting his consistency but expressing slight hesitation given the absence of PGA-level competition or strokes gained data. Despite these unknowns, Andy pinpointed Rahm as an intriguing option, indicating a LIV event performance at Doral (requiring frequent use of drivers and long irons—skills vital for Augusta) could sufficiently affirm Rahm's readiness for Augusta, potentially making him an undervalued betting opportunity.

Pat Perry recommended backing Jon Rahm as a potential Masters winner at 14-to-1 odds. Perry highlighted Rahm's excellent overall history at Augusta National as a primary reason, emphasizing Rahm's consistently strong performances when competing here. Perry mentioned Rahm's current form, noting he is contending at another event in Miami right now and sitting in fifth place, suggesting an ideal combination of recent form and comfort level at Augusta. Rahm stands out clearly to Perry as a high-quality bet among the shorter-odds selections.

Neil Parker expects Jon Rahm to rebound strongly at this year’s Masters. Rahm, the 2023 Masters champion, consistently shines at Augusta National, featuring five Top 10 finishes in his recent Masters history. He has been gaining true strokes consistently during his recent excellent LIV Golf performances. Rahm's stroke gain on approach has been oddly low, leading Parker to argue that statistical regression to the mean suggests Rahm’s approach game will significantly improve at Augusta this week.

Robby Kalland expressed concern over Jon Rahm, noting skepticism about his chances at the 2025 Masters. Rahm won at Augusta in 2023, but since his departure for LIV Golf, he has failed to replicate elite performances in major championships. Given Rahm's inability to maintain his peak major form since his Masters victory, Kalland recommends caution when considering Rahm this week at Augusta.

Drake Dunaway backed Jon Rahm as a strong betting option at 16-1 odds for the 2025 Masters. Dunaway noted Rahm has quietly risen back to supreme form despite fading somewhat from the public consciousness after moving to LIV Golf and experiencing a subpar 2024 majors season. Rahm has been remarkably consistent on the LIV tour recently, finishing inside the top 10 in every tournament he completed. His enhanced short game, statistically the best it's ever been according to Data Golf, further reinforces his worth at these odds. Dunaway feels LIV golfers overall remain slightly undervalued in betting markets for major championships, amplifying Rahm's attractiveness for a wager.

Golf analyst Sia Nejad recommended fading former Masters champion Jon Rahm heading into the 2025 Masters, citing unattractive betting odds relative to his actual likelihood of outperforming other top-ranked contenders. Despite Rahm's status as the 2023 winner, Nejad expressed hesitation to favor Rahm at current short odds (+1400) against elite PGA talent, indicating his shaky value given uncertainty about how Rahm stacks up at this time against top competition. Bettors were urged to approach Rahm cautiously given the potential lack of upside at his priced odds.

Pat Mayo sees Jon Rahm standing out as a reliable selection among favorites for the Masters despite the uncertainty of LIV Golf form—at least Rahm consistently places in the top five weekly. Mayo highlighted Rahm's proven ability to switch into elite-level Augusta performance easily and noted he possesses strong historical Masters finishes even before securing his recent victory. Given Rahm's price nearing 20-1, Mayo firmly considers Rahm the strongest outright betting option among the favorites given Scheffler and McIlroy's significant question marks entering Augusta.

Pat Perry sees Jon Rahm as a strong DFS pivot option at this year's Masters. Perry expects Rahm's projected ownership to be relatively low, providing leverage opportunities. While Rahm sits in the top tier pricing range alongside Routinely popular DFS options like Scheffler and Rory, Perry thinks DFS players who pivot to Rahm could have a substantial differentiation advantage in tournaments. This insight ties directly into strategic considerations in roster management for DraftKings lineups, particularly given Rahm’s continued elite potential ability to contend and win at Augusta.

Pat Mayo expressed strong interest in betting Jon Rahm to win The Masters, contingent upon Rahm’s odds lengthening towards 20-to-1. While Mayo recognized Rahm’s current 15-to-1 odds as potentially restricting given overall betting card construction, he asserted that hitting the targeted mark of 20-to-1 would make Rahm an automatic outright bet. Mayo praised Rahm as a proven 'killer', with a fierce competitive edge perfectly suited to closing major championships, expressing full confidence that Rahm would pose a severe threat if in striking distance coming into the back-nine at Augusta. Mayo confirmed Rahm remains a high-priority target on his shortlist, awaiting better odds to fully invest in.

Pat Mayo sees significant betting value developing for Jon Rahm at the Masters, as Rahm's odds drift toward 20-to-1. Mayo argued that Rahm, despite being 'out of sight, out of mind' due to joining LIV Golf, has posted consistently strong results, finishing 5th, 6th, 6th, and 2nd in recent LIV events. Mayo cited Rahm's ongoing elite-level play and past major championship credentials, noting he has consistently shown the capability to contend at Augusta. Given Rahm's track record and talent, Mayo believes bookmakers are undervaluing him at odds potentially around 20-to-1, making him one of the most intriguing wagers among the top-tier golfers entering the event.
