A two-stroke penalty for a controversial drop, that also could have potentially disqualified him, hurt Woods’ chances for this year’s title. He finished at 5-under overall after shooting a 2-under 70 on the last day of play. There’s no telling what would have transpired if he hadn’t suffered the setback.
His return to No. 1 in the world rankings has betting lines feeling confident in his chances these days. Woods is the favorite with 7/1 odds to win the 2014 Masters, according to BetVictor.
Reigning champion Adam Scott sits in third with 16/1 odds to repeat next year. He defeated Angel Cabrera in two-hole playoff Sunday, making him the first Australian to ever win at Augusta.
Rory McIlroy endured a disappointing weekend after finishing tied for 25th at 2-over. His odds for 2014 are set at 12/1, second behind Woods.
