For Rory McIlroy, the 2026 Masters will be the start of his time at Augusta as a Masters and Grand Slam champion. So what should you expect from the 36-year-old when betting on the 2026 Masters? McIlroy is out of the top three favorites and is listed at +1300 in the latest 2026 Masters odds. Prior to last year&#8217;s victory, he had lost 15 straight at the Masters, making him a polarizing choice in 2026 Masters betting strategies.<\/p>\n<p>Scottie Scheffler, who has won two of the past four Masters, is the favorite to win the Masters in 2026 at +550, followed by Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau at +1000 odds. Rahm won the 2023 Masters and finished in the top 10 in four of his eight career Masters tournaments, but is he someone you can bet on for the 2026 Masters? Before you pick the 2026 Masters, you should check out golf expert David Bearman&#8217;s predictions for the 2026 Masters. <\/p>\n<p>Bearman joined SportsLine after serving as ESPN&#8217;s golf researcher from 2008 to 2011 and as deputy editor of ESPN Chalk from 2019 to 2023, writing the site&#8217;s weekly golf betting column. This year he achieved 28 positions <span class=\"link\">golf gambling<\/span> He had the picks (top 5\/10\/20) in his first 11 tournaments and completely defeated Cam Young at The Players Championship.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Bearman is focusing on the 2026 Masters field and making predictions for sleepers and golfers to avoid. You can only see it here. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2026_Masters_Experts_Top_Picks\"><\/span>2026 Masters Experts&#8217; Top Picks <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One of Bearman&#8217;s 2026 Masters predictions is that he&#8217;s fading Rory McIlroy (+1300) and avoiding him with outright and direct picks. Bearman noted that McIlroy has faced physical challenges, including missing the match against Arnold Palmer due to back pain and finishing T-46 the following week at The Players Championship with four rounds over par. McIlroy hasn&#8217;t played since that slump a month ago. But it&#8217;s not just physical issues that Bearman is concerned about.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;How do you follow up on last year&#8217;s historic victory and achieving the sport&#8217;s elusive Grand Slam?&#8221; Bearman told SportsLine. &#8220;It wasn&#8217;t just a guy who finally made money. It was a guy who hit 11 Grand Slams and didn&#8217;t get there until last year in every sense imaginable. You can see it in his emotional release after the win and everything that followed. As much as he &#8216;needed&#8217; that win to complete his career, he doesn&#8217;t need that win this time. Oh, and only three golfers in the history of golf have ever won (Nicklaus, Faldo, and Tiger) wearing green jackets back to back, so history isn&#8217;t on his side either. \u201d See who Bearman supports on SportsLine.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_make_a_2026_Masters_nomination\"><\/span>How to make a 2026 Masters nomination<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Bearman has made his best bet clear, and his top pick outright is a surprising longshot around 60-1 who missed eight cuts last year. He is a perfect fit for the course and anyone who supports him has the potential to be very successful. You can find out who it is only on Sportsline.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s your best bet for the 2026 Masters? And should you target overlooked golfers?
