Rory McIlroy is heavy favorite

The 2025 Masters will come to a close on Sunday, and it looks like it’s Rory McIlroy’s green jacket to lose.

McIlroy, who is an Augusta win away from the career grand slam, is a -225 favorite at BetMGM Sportsbook to win the Masters heading into Sunday’s final round. The 35-year-old wrapped up Saturday at 12-under, two shots ahead of Bryson DeChambeau in second place.

McIlroy was +650 to win the Masters before Round 1. Only Scottie Scheffler had shorter pre-tournament odds than the Northern Irishman.

Scheffler is on the fringes of contention, sitting at 5-under after 54 holes. He is 40/1 to repeat as champion going into play on Sunday.

If Scheffler does come back and win, it would be the second-biggest Sunday comeback in Masters history. Jack Burke Jr. won from eight back in 1956.

McIlroy stormed out of the gates on Saturday, shooting five-under through the first four holes and threatening to run away with the tournament before teatime on Saturday.

A hiccup on either side of the turn left the door open a bit, but the four-time major champion got his game back together on the back nine to keep DeChambeau at arm’s length.

DeChambeau is the second-favorite at +260, and will need to make up a two-shot deficit on Sunday.

Corey Conners, who was paired with McIlroy on Saturday, is the third favorite at 16/1. The Canadian is four shots behind McIlroy.
