Top Masters 2024 predictions

One big surprise this model is calling for at the 2024 Masters: Rory McIlroy, a four-time major champion and one of the favorites, fails to complete the career Grand Slam and narrowly misses the cut. 5 at Augusta National. The world No. 2 ranked golfer will have a difficult start to 2024, with his highest finish in his first five starts being 19th at the Players Championship.

Putting was an issue for McIlroy at the start of the season, as he previously ranked 129th in that area (-0.246). While he improved to 83rd on the PGA Tour (0.036) and his strokes gained total (0.610) was 40th, he still ranked 123rd in strokes gained when approaching green zone (-0.176). While there appear to be minor improvements in his game, his accomplishments this season are why the pattern is low for him.

Another surprise: Justin Thomas, a 28-1 longshot, won the title strongly. He has a much better chance of winning it all than the odds imply, so he’s a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. Thomas is a seasoned veteran on the PGA Tour and will be making his ninth appearance at the Masters. He has finished in the top 25 in six of his last seven starts at Augusta National, finishing fourth in 2020 and eighth in 2022.

Thomas is a two-time major champion and enters the 2024 Masters Tournament ranked fifth in strokes gained: approach to the green (0.795). He has struggled on the greens this season, but if he can make the putt this week, he will have a chance to compete on Sunday. See who else to choose from here.
