The top of the 2025 Masters leaderboard features several familiar names heading into Sunday’s final round, as Rory McIlroy (-12) holds a two-stroke lead over Bryson DeChambeau (-10). McIlroy, who is trying to complete the career grand slam and win his first green jacket, shot a 6-under 66 on Saturday to take the 54-hole lead at Augusta National Golf Club. DeChambeau poured in a long birdie putt on the final hole of the third round to pull within two strokes of the lead, while Corey Conners is in third place at 8-under. Other 2025 Masters contenders include Patrick Reed and Ludvig Åberg, who are both at 6-under.
McIlroy and DeChambeau will tee off in the final pairing at 2:30 p.m. ET on Sunday. McIlroy is the -200 favorite in the 2025 Masters odds (risk $200 to win $100) from FanDuel Sportsbook, while DeChambeau is next on the PGA odds board at +260. Before locking in any 2025 Masters picks for Sunday, be sure to see the 2025 Masters predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
SportsLine’s proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June 2020. In fact, the model is up nearly $9,500 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
This same model has also nailed a whopping 13 majors entering the weekend, including the 2024 Masters (its third Masters in a row) and last year’s PGA Championship and U.S. Open. Anyone who has followed its sports betting picks could have seen massive returns on betting apps like FanDuel, DraftKings and Fanatics.
Now that three rounds are in the books at the 2025 Masters, SportsLine simulated the final round 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected 2025 Masters leaderboard.
Top 2025 Masters predictions
One surprise the model is calling for at the 2025 Masters on Sunday: Ludvig Åberg, who is tied for fourth place, struggles on Sunday and finishes outside of the top five. The 2024 Masters second-place finisher entered this year’s third round five strokes off the lead and got off to a rough start with two bogeys in his first four holes. He responded with four birdies in his final 11 holes to get back into contention heading into Sunday’s final round.
However, the model does not expect him to stay in the hunt, especially since he finished outside the top 10 in the other three majors last year. Åberg missed the cut in each of his two tournaments prior to the Masters, so he has shown signs of inconsistency lately. With so many elite golfers near the top of the leaderboard, the model is going in a different direction with its recommended bets for Sunday. See who else to fade at SportsLine.
Another surprise: Scottie Scheffler, a 40-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He has a much better chance to win it all than his odds imply, so he’s a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. The defending Masters champion entered the third round in position to win the tournament for the third time in four years, but he finished the round in a four-way tie for sixth place at 5-under.
Scheffler is now entering the final round as a longshot, but that lack of pressure could allow him to take aim at some of the pin locations and move his way up the leaderboard. A few early birdies for Scheffler could also create some tension for McIlroy and DeChambeau, who will be dealing with significant pressure. Scheffler shot a final-round 62 to win the gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, so the model knows he can put together a historic round on Sunday. See who else to back at SportsLine.
How to make 2025 Masters picks
The model is targeting five other golfers with odds of 80-1 or longer who will make surprising runs on Sunday, including one monster longshot that returns around 500-1. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model’s Masters picks here.
