Rick Gehman cautions against rostering Tyrrell Hatton at the Masters based on Hatton’s struggles off the tee throughout 2025. After starting special with a win at the Dubai Desert Classic, Hatton’s driving performance dropped significantly at LIV Golf events in Adelaide, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Miami, each revealing substantial inaccuracy off the tee. Gehman underscored this regression as particularly troubling since Hatton traditionally relies heavily upon driving precision rather than driving distance for his success, evidenced by his history of European Tour victories and consistent top finishes. Although Hatton produced his overall best Masters finish (T9) last year, Gehman believes ongoing driving woes severely diminish Hatton's DFS ceiling, making him a risky play, especially considering Augusta National's notorious harshness towards inaccurate drivers.

Mike McClure advises including Tyrrell Hatton in DFS lineups for the 2025 Masters due to his consistent history at Augusta National. Hatton has successfully made the cut in six of his last seven Masters appearances, providing a safe floor for DFS lineups. He secured a top-10 finish (T9) at Augusta last year, further showcasing his ability to perform in this high-stakes environment. With no major championships yet in his career, Hatton is highly motivated and is regarded as one of golf's top players without a major. Given his consistency and reasonable DFS price of $8,600 on DraftKings and $10,200 on FanDuel, Hatton represents excellent lineup value according to McClure.

Matt Gannon cautioned against betting Tyrrell Hatton at Augusta due to Hatton's openly negative attitude towards the course, referencing his notorious statement calling Augusta National unfair and expressing dislike for the venue. Although Hatton exceeded expectations by achieving a top-10 finish at last year's Masters, Gannon emphasized it's difficult to trust a golfer at Augusta when they explicitly voice disdain for the course. He believes Hatton's negative perspectives create unnecessary volatility, and despite Hatton's overall talent and current odds of 38-to-1, Gannon suggested looking for stronger betting value at courses Hatton openly enjoys. He also reminded bettors to wait for odds adjustment post-Valero Texas Open, projecting Hatton's odds might significantly lengthen, possibly towards 65-to-1, creating a more appealing potential value later.
