McDonald highlighted Reed at 90-1 as his favorite sleeper. Reed finished runner-up when the PGA was last held at Quail Hollow (2017), has four top-10s in his past five worldwide starts, and pairs his trademark short-game with vastly improved ball-striking in 2025. The Masters champion returns "as complete a player as ever," giving him real win equity at long odds.

David Barnett doubled down on Patrick Reed, calling the +210 Top-20 price “almost disrespectful.” He cited Reed’s recent move into a Titleist GT3 driver that has him gaining strokes off-the-tee on LIV, plus inside info from caddie Kessler Karain that Reed’s short game is dialed in. Reed owns multiple Quail Hollow top-10s, including a solo 2nd in 2013, and Barnett believes the thick, overseeded rough + soft greens will reward Reed’s elite scrambling and hot putter. With the bomb-friendly layout now complemented by added length off the tee, Barnett sees a very clear path for Reed to cash the ticket at better than 2-to-1.

David Barnett said Patrick Reed is a must-add outright at 90-1 because several inside factors are finally pointing green. Barnett texted Reed’s caddie Kessler Karain, who confirmed the 2018 Masters champ just switched into a Titleist GT3 driver after Macau and has been ‘in contention almost every week’ on LIV since the change. Karain emphasized that Quail Hollow will still demand driver this year despite the wet conditions, and Reed now feels comfortable stepping on the new head. Barnett also highlighted Reed’s elite scrambling and historically hot putter—exactly what Karain said separates him here. Reed owns multiple top-10s at Quail, including a solo 2nd at the 2013 Wells Fargo, and nearly won the Masters this spring, proving the closer gene is intact. At a number that prices him alongside mid-tier ball-strikers with zero major pedigree, Barnett believes the combination of a tuned-up driver, short-game edge and proven win equity makes Reed the best longish ticket on the board.

Pat Fitzmaurice re-upped on Patrick Reed at +9,000 for an outright and as a top-10 bet. Reed has finished top-10 in three of his last four Quail Hollow appearances, including solo second here at the 2017 PGA. He’s also in form after a solo third at last month’s Masters, gaining 6.1 strokes short game. Pat argued Reed’s combination of crafty scrambling and proven major pedigree makes him under-priced, particularly if the forecasted softer conditions turn Quail Hollow into more of a short-game test.

Reynolds sprinkled on Patrick Reed at 90-1 (DraftKings) for placement and outright exposure. Reed’s Quail Hollow history jumps off the page: runner-up at the 2017 PGA, 6th in 2021, and 8th in the 2018 Wells Fargo. He surged to 3rd at last month’s Masters, vaulting back into the OWGR top-50, and ranks 7th in scrambling and 10th in bogey avoidance over the last 36 rounds—key traits on a track where only 61% of greens are hit and the Green Mile penalizes misses. Reynolds thinks the polarizing veteran offers enormous upside relative to price.

Pat Mayo bet Patrick Reed ‑110 over Jason Day in head-to-heads, noting Reed’s steady form contrasted with Day battling a herniated neck disc. Mayo added that a mid-tournament WD by Day would cash the ticket automatically, increasing Reed’s expected value. Given Reed’s grind-it-out mentality and Day’s volatility, Mayo sees this as the safest matchup on the board.

Christopher Powers labeled Patrick Reed an enticing outright at 80-1. Reed has rediscovered form with a solo 3rd at the Masters, T-17 at LIV Mexico and T-4 at LIV Korea, and Powers thinks being left off Keegan Bradley’s informal Ryder Cup gathering will add extra motivation. Quail Hollow is a comfortable venue for Reed—runner-up to JT here in the 2017 PGA and multiple top-10s since. Powers expects Reed’s elite short game and renewed confidence to keep him in the hunt all four days.

Patrick Reed at +225 for a top-20 is on DaSilva’s card because of his track record at Quail Hollow: T-2 at the 2017 PGA, eighth and sixth in the 2018 and 2021 Wells Fargo Championships. Add in a third-place finish at this year’s Masters and Reed’s all-around game looks well suited for another grind-it-out major leaderboard appearance.

Neil Parker urged bettors to grab the +9000 outright number on Patrick Reed for the 2025 PGA Championship. Parker pointed to Reed's extensive resume at Quail Hollow: solo 3rd at this year's Masters, runner-up in the 2017 PGA at the same track, plus Top-10 finishes in the 2018 and 2021 Wells Fargo events. The American enters on a heater with seven straight Top-25s (five Top-10s) while gaining true strokes in every major category. Over his last five appearances at Quail Hollow he sits eighth in the field in true strokes gained, and he ranks 20th both tee-to-green and putting during his current form, giving Parker confidence Reed can contend again on a course that clearly suits his eye.

Reed is DaSilva’s favorite mid-tier stab at +6600 because Quail Hollow always brings out his best. He finished two shots shy of Thomas here in the 2017 PGA, added T8 (2018 Wells Fargo) and T6 (2021 Wells Fargo) results, giving him three top-10s in his last four Quail appearances. Reed’s short game neutralizes the demanding green complexes, and his major pedigree suggests he can threaten once again if the driver cooperates.

Pat Mayo is grabbing Patrick Reed as a plus-money head-to-head dog versus Jason Day and adding a small outright at 80-1. He notes that Reed has finished T4 and T12 in his last two Masters starts, routinely gains around the green (5.2 SG ARG at Augusta), and never minds soft, thick rough because of his short-game wizardry. Mayo questions Day’s health after a neck-related WD and points out that a mid-round WD by Day would auto-cash the H2H. He argues Reed’s path to victory is stronger than shorter-priced iron specialists like Corey Conners: Reed’s driving is quietly up to 300-yard carry numbers on LIV and his putter heats on bentgrass. Anything in the +105 to +120 range for the Day matchup is a bet, with the outright sprinkled in case the course turns into a grind fest where Reed thrives.

Pat Mayo recommended laying the short juice on Patrick Reed –120 versus Jason Day in tournament matchups. Mayo argued that Day’s chronic neck and back issues make him a walking withdrawal risk—“if Day plays two holes and feels a kink he could be gone,” he joked—while Reed is healthy and historically peaks at majors whenever his Ryder Cup candidacy is on the line. Quail Hollow’s 7,600-yard setup removes Day’s wedge-heavy advantage and emphasizes Reed’s still-underrated driving distance (he ranks top-35 on LIV in ball speed) and creative short game. With no cut-line pressure in a head-to-head and Reed’s motivation to rack up OWGR points, Mayo sees the minus number as cheap insurance against a potential Day WD or simply mediocre play on a bomber’s track that does not fit his current profile.

Patrick McDonald identified Patrick Reed as his favorite off-the-radar play, arguing Quail Hollow’s underrated around-the-green difficulty plays directly into Reed’s elite scrambling. When the course hosted the 2017 PGA, the field converted only 48 percent of up-and-downs—the toughest short-game test on tour that year—yet Reed rode his short game to a runner-up finish. With majors historically lowering GIR rates and the weather forecast to soften surfaces, McDonald expects another chipping contest that neutralizes Reed’s distance deficit. He recommended top-20 wagers at +300 or better, sprinkling each-way outright tickets at 80-to-1 or longer, and slotting Reed into salary-saving DFS builds for differentiation.

Shane Bacon planted his flag on Patrick Reed as his outright winner for the 2025 PGA Championship, saying once Reed shows up at rain-soaked Quail Hollow, "it’s over." Bacon reminded listeners that Reed finished runner-up when the PGA last visited Quail in 2017 and just flashed more big-moment swagger by dunking an approach at Augusta’s 17th. He downplayed Justin Thomas’s supposed course fit and instead leaned on Reed’s major pedigree and ability to close on demanding par-4 finishers. Bacon echoed Patrick McDonald’s earlier point that Quail’s historically brutal scrambling test (48 % field up-and-downs in 2017) actually accentuates Reed’s greatest edge. With the forecast calling for another saturated, 7,600-yard slog that takes rollout away from longer hitters, Bacon believes Reed’s short-game wizardry and streaky putter can separate. He advised scooping outright tickets at 50-1 or longer and sprinkling Reed into DFS builds as a salary-saving pivot with genuine win equity.

Patrick McDonald placed Patrick Reed fifth on his card, arguing the betting market is ignoring Reed’s current form. Reed finished T-3 at Augusta, has climbed back inside the OWGR Top-100, and continues to gain strokes around the green—an asset on Valhalla’s shaved run-offs. McDonald believes Reed’s grinding style and improved approach numbers (+3.2 SG:APP at the Masters) make him live for a back-door top-5, and he is comfortable taking Reed in each-way markets at 90-1 or better.

Parker called the +140 price on Patrick Reed for a Top-30 finish “enormous” given Reed’s resume. Reed was solo 3rd at this year’s Masters, finished runner-up in the 2017 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, and owns two additional Top-10s at the track (2018 and 2021 Wells Fargo). He’s riding a streak of seven straight Top-25 finishes, five of which were Top-10s, while ranking 20th in this field in both true strokes gained tee-to-green and putting over that span. Reed is also eighth in true strokes gained specifically at Quail Hollow, leading Parker to label the market badly mispriced.

Jeff Erickson declared that, love him or loathe him, Patrick Reed at $8,100 belongs in DFS builds and top-10 betting cards. Erickson trusts Reed’s knack for hanging around leaderboards in majors, noting that his short-game wizardry and ability to scramble in difficult scoring environments align with Quail Hollow’s reputation as a top-10 toughest course annually. The sub-$8.5K salary lets rosters fit a second premium stud while still accessing Reed’s reliable cut-making and Sunday contention profile.

Haslbauer highlighted Patrick Reed as a cheap DFS and betting value despite modest outright odds. Reed finished T-2 at the 2017 PGA at Quail Hollow even while losing strokes in Driving Distance, showcasing how his scrambling and fast-Bermuda putting travel here. Over the last decade he is seventh in cumulative strokes gained at the course and one of just nine players to rank above average in SG:Around-the-Green, Scrambling, Bogey Avoidance and SG:Total on difficult layouts. Wet, receptive greens should mitigate his lack of length while accentuating his touch inside 100 yards. Haslbauer plans to deploy Reed in heavier DFS volume and views him as a live top-10/top-20 bet at plus odds.

Mike McClure recommended a multi-unit bet on Patrick Reed to finish inside the top 40 at –140 (ties paid). McClure expects Quail Hollow to play tough—likely a single-digit winning score—which historically suits Reed’s grind-it-out majors profile. While others chase low odds on the elite tier, McClure trusts Reed’s short-game wizardry and proven ability to hover between 15th and 35th when he makes the weekend. His simulations have Reed clearing the top-40 cut line more than 63 percent of the time, implying fair odds closer to –170, so –140 represents meaningful edge in a market that often tightens as major week progresses.

Steve Bamford urged punters to grab Patrick Reed at 70/1 each-way, citing a convergence of course history, major pedigree and motivation. Across every visit to the current Quail Hollow setup – including a runner-up finish behind Justin Thomas in the 2017 PGA – Reed ranks 2nd in this field for cumulative Strokes Gained at the venue (8th in 2018, 28th in 2019, 6th in 2021). The former Masters champ has quietly been one of the steadiest major performers since 2019, logging eight top-20s and a recent 3rd at Augusta. His PGA record shows four top-20s with two on long par-70/71 layouts (Harding Park 2020, Oak Hill 2023). Bamford likes that Reed won his maiden Tour event in North Carolina (2013 Wyndham at Sedgefield, also Champion Bermuda) and still averages 305 yards off the tee, enough to attack Quail’s three par-5s and new 530-yard 9th. He framed the play as a motivated veteran auditioning for Keegan Bradley’s Ryder Cup team; with no Tour status, Reed must make noise in majors. Ranking top-5 in the field for both SG Off-the-Tee and Putting over the last eight-event window, Reed combines the scrambling (3rd SG Around-the-Green season-to-date) and hot putter (top-10 SG Putting) that historically account for 40 % of winning strokes at Quail Hollow. Bamford concluded Reed is the best mid-tier each-way value to crash the leaderboard.

Jason Sobel circled Patrick Reed for top-10 and top-20 placement bets rather than an outright. Reed finished T2 the last time a PGA was held at Quail Hollow and came T5 at this year’s Masters despite limited LIV reps. Sobel pointed out that Reed routinely raises his ceiling at majors and owns one of the field’s best short games, a trait that becomes critical when Quail Hollow’s thick surrounds force players to scramble. Length is not Reed’s calling card, but on a firm setup Sobel thinks his creativity around the greens offsets the yardage deficit. With books still hanging +300 or longer for a top-20, Sobel sees actionable value before the market tightens.

Pat Mayo told listeners to cross Patrick Reed off their PGA Championship betting cards despite the inevitable post-Augusta buzz. Mayo leaned on Keith Stewart’s course intel, stressing that Quail Hollow’s 2025 setup—soft greens, muted rough, and 7,600 yards—rewards pure carry distance and wedge opportunities for bombers, not short-game savants. Reed ranks outside the top-80 in driving distance and relies on around-the-green play for most of his strokes-gained. Mayo likened Reed’s profile to Kevin Kisner’s in 2017, noting that version of the course was firm and fast; this time length will trump finesse. With books hanging Reed around 65-1 and early DFS ownership building, Mayo labeled him a clear fade in outrights, placement bets, and single-entry GPPs.

Steve Bamford said Patrick Reed is the one triple-digit long-shot he is actually betting to win Quail Hollow. Bamford pulled strokes-gained data from every round since the Fazio redesign and Reed ranks No. 2 behind only Rory. Reed’s LIV numbers may be limited, but they still show added distance, an elite fairway-finding clip, and a spike in greens-in-reg. Bamford loves the Champion-Bermuda / Poa triv mix on these overseeded greens, reminding listeners Reed flat-out rolls it on this surface (top-5 putter at the 2017 PGA and +4.7 SG:P at this year’s Masters). He also thinks Ryder Cup motivation will keep Reed grinding for a top-60 OWGR leap. With exchanges dangling 130-1 and U.K. books at 90-1, Bamford has already staked an outright and plans to double in the top-5 market, calling that number "criminal for a guy who checks every box except PR."

Joe Idone wants Patrick Reed on his outright card the moment books hit 100-to-1 (and will still bite at 80s). Reed finished runner-up to Justin Thomas at the 2017 PGA on this same Quail Hollow routing and arrives with sneaky form: third on LIV Korea, third at the Masters, and a front-running stretch at LIV Miami. Idone highlighted Reed’s relentless schedule—Asian Tour, DP World Tour, anywhere he can tee it up—as proof the competitive edge is still there. While Reed lacks the carry distance Idone usually covets this week, he trusts the Texan’s elite scrambling and proven ‘find-a-way’ mentality when scoring gets ugly. Motivation is sky-high: Reed sits 51st in OWGR and needs a big PGA result to crack the top-50 and secure a U.S. Open berth. Idone will use top-10 placements for safer exposure but says the ceiling payoff at triple digits is too good to ignore.

Patrick McDonald vaulted Patrick Reed into his top-5 power rankings and called him a legitimate long-shot outright at Quail Hollow. Reed owns four top-10 finishes in his last five worldwide starts, including a recent T-5 at LIV Golf Korea, and he was runner-up the last time the PGA visited Quail (2017). McDonald added that Reed ranks inside the top five in cumulative Strokes Gained at Quail Hollow among players in this field, praising his shot-shaping and short-game creativity—skills he believes translate perfectly to the demanding finishing stretch known as the Green Mile.

Patrick McDonald vaulted Patrick Reed into his top-five power-ranking slot and called him a live outright at Quail Hollow. McDonald cited Reed’s four top-10s in his last five worldwide starts—including a T5 at LIV Korea—plus elite course history: runner-up here in 2017 and top-five strokes-gained numbers at Quail among players in this field. With Reed’s scrambled-first skill-set matching the PGA’s typical thick-rough setup and his iron play perking up (gaining over 1.2 SG: Approach per round during that recent run), McDonald recommended betting Reed in the 30-to-1 range, sprinkling each-way, and locking in DFS exposure before the market catches up.

Keith Stewart emphasized Patrick Reed as a reliable DFS play at Augusta due to his exceptional and consistent course history. Stewart highlighted Reed's outstanding recent Augusta performances—four top-12 finishes in his last five starts. Although Reed lacks distance, Stewart noted Reed's consistent ability to manage even-par rounds effectively, producing strong finishes at a challenging Masters setup. Stewart attributed Reed's ongoing Augusta success to his relentless competitiveness, grinding mentality, and remarkable short-game creativity, positioning him as a valuable mid-priced DFS choice.

Rick Gehman emphasized Patrick Reed as an intriguing DFS option due to his recent outstanding form and elite putting history at Augusta National. Reed is coming off strong finishes, including a T7 at Doral and runner-up finish at the Macau International Series. Gehman stressed Reed's excellent putting at Augusta—ranking behind only Justin Rose, Cameron Smith, and Will Zalatoris among players with at least 12 rounds since 2019. Notably, Reed’s excellent Augusta putting data doesn't even include his 2018 Masters victory. Gehman considers Reed significantly appealing based on exceptional recent play, phenomenal putting track record at Augusta, and his trending form on the LIV circuit.

Brady Kannon is backing Patrick Reed at triple-digit odds (115-1), noting Reed's past Masters victory (2018) and multiple additional Augusta top-10 finishes. Reed's recent strong form, including a top-5 at LIV event in Doral and runner-up at International Series Macau, underscores his readiness. He leads the field in SG: Scrambling and ranks 12th in Bentgrass Putting over the last 36 rounds, enhancing his great value as a longshot contender.

At 100-1, Patrick Reed is Wes Reynolds' favored longshot, owing to his persistent strong finishes at Augusta regardless of broader form. Citing Reed's recent wins and runner-ups on the Asian Tour, Reynolds emphasized Reed's remarkable Masters history (top 12 finishes in four of the last five editions), showcasing his comfort and success at the course. Reynolds believes Reed's consistent Augusta form could help him rediscover major-championship contention this week.

Joe Champion identified Patrick Reed (+10000) as a valuable under-the-radar bet for the Masters 2025 from the LIV Golf circuit. Reed's Augusta resume remains impeccable, highlighted by his watershed victory in 2018 and consistent finishes since—10th, 8th, 35th, 4th, and 12th from 2020-2024. Champion mentioned his recent solid ball-striking form, referring to Reed’s seventh-place finish at the very challenging LIV Tour event at Doral in Miami. Considering Reed’s exceptional short-game skill, noted toughness, and excellent Augusta history, Champion saw Reed as overly disrespected in betting markets and a value pick for Augusta this year.

Byron Lindeque confidently identified Patrick Reed to finish in the top 20 at Augusta as his gold best bet, available at appealing odds of +180. He pointed out Reed's exceptional and incredibly consistent Masters record, having cashed top-20 results four of the past five years. Lindeque emphasized Reed as statistically the most profitable Masters bettor’s option over the last half-decade, consistently delivering returns. Reed's strong current form combined with his track record and clear comfort around Augusta National supports significant value in this top-20 wager.

Byron Lindeque pointed out Patrick Reed as his preferred long-shot value bet to lead the Masters after round one, available at appealing odds around 55-60 to 1. Reed, a LIV golfer now, historically demonstrates solid early rounds at Augusta, and Byron included him among a few Liv Golf players who provide sneaky opportunities in the opening round leader markets. Byron sees value in betting Reed early, leveraging inflated odds from his transition to LIV.

Dave Tindall endorses an each-way bet on Patrick Reed at the 2025 US Masters, emphasizing Reed's elite short-game skills and proven comfort at Augusta. Reed won the Green Jacket in 2018 and has consistently performed well since, finishing 10th, 8th, 35th, 4th, and 12th in his subsequent five starts. Tindall compares Reed's steady Augusta track record favorably against top competitors, noting superior consistency when matched against Rory McIlroy. Reed's recent remarks about needing creativity and visual shot-making to succeed—skills that clearly translate to success at Augusta—reinforce his compatibility with Augusta National, a course demanding imagination and touch. Reed recently won the Hong Kong Open and placed second at the International Series Macau, further suggesting he arrives in top form, and currently leads in LIV Miami. Tindall sees Reed's blend of proven history, current form, and specific skillset as clear betting value.

Bo McBrayer strongly recommended Patrick Reed as a great longshot betting opportunity for the 2025 Masters. McBrayer emphasizes Reed's proven course history and notes specifically his comfort and understanding of Augusta National. Reed is a previous Masters winner and has regularly contended on this course, making him an enticing and high-value bet given the extremely long odds currently offered. McBrayer called Reed an ideal combination of excellent form, skill fit, and betting value for anyone seeking a high-upside, long-odds option.

Matt Cradock advises taking advantage of Patrick Reed's inflated betting number (+9000) as an outsider with significant value. Reed, the 2018 Masters champion, has quietly returned to excellent form, with a recent victory in late 2024 and seven top-25 finishes since. He has a consistent Masters history—no missed cuts at Augusta since 2017, and four top-12 finishes in the last five years. Cradock believes Reed's reliable Augusta track record combined with strong recent results make him a high-value each-way betting pick, clearly going overlooked by bookmakers and bettors.

Eric Cohen likes Patrick Reed as a safe, reliable option to finish in the top 20 at the 2025 Masters, pointing to Reed's consistently strong performance at Augusta National. Reed captured the green jacket in 2018 and has maintained steady production since then, tallying four top-12 finishes in his last six Masters appearances. Cohen emphasized Reed's elite putting results on Augusta's challenging greens, highlighting that he has gained a combined 20 strokes putting over the past five Masters tournaments. Coming off his 10th worldwide victory at the 2024 Hong Kong Open, Reed's current form adds further confidence for Cohen that Reed will comfortably fit within an eighth-to-18th place finish, making a top-20 wager at +260 especially appealing.

Tom Jacobs specifically targets Patrick Reed as a strong each-way betting opportunity at Augusta at 55/1 odds, pointing to Reed’s exceptional consistency at the Masters since donning the Green Jacket in 2018. In six Masters appearances since his victory, Reed has impressively recorded four finishes of 12th place or better, highlighted by a 4th-place finish in 2022. Jacobs points out Reed’s advantageous form ahead of this Masters, following a runner-up finish in Macau and consistently strong play last week at a tough Doral course. Reed’s combination of course experience, past Masters win, and recent improvement in form underpin Jacobs’ confidence in Reed’s potential to either win his second Green Jacket or comfortably place inside the top-12, making him a valuable Masters betting angle.

Pat Mayo pinpointed Patrick Reed as a standout choice for first-round leader betting at the Masters, highlighting Reed's historically elite putting at Augusta over the past two years. Reed ranks highly in strokes gained putting, making him an ideal candidate for first-round leader bets. Mayo emphasized that strong putting combined with good greens-in-regulation is crucial for round-one success, minimizing reliance on scrambling—often a weak spot for Reed. Due to these factors, Mayo confidently identified Reed as a strong target in first-round markets at Augusta, looking to capitalize on his consistent putting excellence.

Pat Mayo identified Patrick Reed as an exceptional betting option at the Masters, especially highlighting his strong and consistent returns in top-20 betting markets. Notably, Reed has provided more profitable returns betting him inside the top-20 over the past five years than even bets on outright winners have, including multiple Scottie Scheffler victories. Reed currently comes into this year's Masters displaying excellent recent form, leading early at the LIV event in Miami at Doral—known to present challenging Masters-like conditions. Given these factors, Mayo advocated strongly for targeting Reed as an undervalued betting asset, particularly in top-20 Masters markets.

Sia Nejad spotlighted Patrick Reed's attractive 45-1 odds in specialized betting markets excluding top-tier favorites (Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Morikawa, Rahm, and Ludvig Aberg). Comparing Reed's odds to others like Koepka and Lowry who are priced significantly shorter, Nejad points to Reed as offering strong long-shot potential given his proven Augusta track record. He places appeal on targeting Reed in these alternate betting markets as a high-upside wager given Augusta-centric game strengths, scrambling ability, and historical Masters success.

Mike McClure strongly recommended Patrick Reed as a high-upside DFS target because of his proven scrambling ability and consistent excellence around Augusta National's greens. Reed carries impressive course history, with recent finishes including T-12 and T-4 in the past two Masters. McClure explained that Reed's specific skill set—chipping accuracy and understanding Augusta's difficult greens—is exceptionally valuable at this particular event, far more so than at typical PGA tournaments. He suggested targeting Reed particularly in top-20 betting markets and daily fantasy golf lineups, given his likelihood to finish strongly in elite fields.

Pat Mayo increasingly likes Patrick Reed as a top-10 bet at Augusta due to Reed's consistent Masters history, including recent finishes of 12th, 4th, 35th, and a top-8 previously, alongside his previous Masters victory. Mayo highlighted Reed’s unwavering commitment, exemplified by playing tour events globally regardless of location, as part of his highly competitive nature. Mayo referenced a recent conversation between Kessler Karain (Reed's caddy) and Matt Gannon, revealing Reed's extreme confidence and aggressive mindset, described humorously as "strokes gained dog." Mayo concluded he's comfortable betting Reed for a top-10 finish given his mental toughness and consistent Augusta performance.

Pat Mayo highlighted that despite recent inability to win on LIV and Asian tours, Patrick Reed consistently excels at Augusta due to outstanding wedge play and unmatched familiarity with Augusta's greenside nuances. Mayo specifically emphasized how Reed repeatedly demonstrates pinpoint accuracy and elite short-game control at Augusta, regularly pitching balls within two feet off challenging lies. Augusta’s tricky slopes and creative recovery shots match perfectly with Reed’s strengths, making him a strong candidate in DFS lineups and fantasy golf pools.

Tyler Tamboline is bullish on Patrick Reed at a price of $7,300 on DraftKings, highlighting Reed's 'shockingly good' recent track record at The Masters. Tamboline noted that Reed has significantly outperformed expectations at Augusta over the last four years, in addition to previously winning the event. Given this excellent history, Tamboline believes Reed represents great DFS value at his current price.

Pat Fitzmaurice favors using Patrick Reed as a value DFS play for the Masters, highlighting Reed's historical performance at Augusta National. Reed, who won the Green Jacket in 2018, is viewed as an overlooked option because of his current participation in LIV Golf, likely resulting in lower DFS pricing relative to other competitors. Fitzmaurice emphasizes Reed's exceptional short game and strategic course management, both essential success factors at Augusta. He sees Reed's undervaluation as a meaningful opportunity to gain leverage in DFS lineups during the Masters.
