Tiger Woods Isn’t a Masters Lock But You Can Still Bet on Him

Tiger Woods has a better chance of winning his record-tying sixth Masters title next month than regular pros including Adam Scott and Sergio Garcia, according to betting odds, though it’s no sure bet that he’ll even show up.

Three years after stunning the sports world by winning another Green Jacket when his professional career looked done, Woods is still named in the Masters line-up for the tournament. That’s despite the fact that the golfer has yet to play in a mainstream Tour event in 17 months and almost lost a leg in a car accident last year.
