2025 Masters Odds, Picks & Predictions: Phil Mickelson

Image of author by |

It’s Masters week, arguably the best week of the year for fans of professional golf. The Masters is a rite of spring and the unofficial start of golf season in America.

The best players in the game will take on what many regard as the best and most gorgeous golf course in the world, Augusta National. But Augusta is a treacherous beauty that challenges players with lightning-fast greens, severe elevation changes, narrow passages between trees, and scorecard-wrecking water hazards and bunkers.

Can the No. 1 player in the world, Scottie Scheffler, win his third Green Jacket in four years? Is this finally Rory McIlroy's year? Or will a young star such as Ludvig Aberg or Collin Morikawa prevail at Augusta. And let's not forget about the LIV Tour players. Jon Rahm, Patrick Reed and Sergio Garcia are among the LIV players who have won The Masters before. Maybe it's Bryson DeChambeau's turn this year.

Welcome to the fourth annual BettingPros Guide to The Masters. We’re going to examine the many wagering opportunities this tournament presents, taking a closer look at the players contending for the coveted Green Jacket. Which players provide betting value and which are bad bets? Read on for our 2025 Masters predictions for Phil Mickelson.

Course History

Phil Mickelson has won The Masters three times — in 2004, 2006, and 2010. Now 54, Mickelson isn’t contending at Augusta as frequently as he used to, but Mickelson managed a runner-up finish just two years ago at age 52. It was the highest finish in Masters history by a player 50 or older. Mickelson knows every inch of Augusta National.

Recent Form

Mickelson is still making noise on the LIV Tour. He’s finished 23rd or better in all four of his LIV Tour starts this season, including a third-place finish at LIV Golf Hong Kong last month and a sixth-place finish at LIV Golf Miami last weekend. The Miami event was played at Doral, a beast of a course, so Mickelson should be well-prepared for the challenges Augusta will throw at him.

Betting Outlook: 2025 Masters Predictions

If anyone could win The Masters at age 54, it's Mickelson. His short game is made for Augusta National, and he's been in good form lately. Betting Lefty to win outright probably isn’t the best play, but we’re getting good value on Mickelson to finish top 20 (+300) or simply to make the cut (-150).
