Scottie Scheffler was the most popular golfer at BetMGM Sportsbook going into the Masters, and he came through by winning the tournament by four shots.

Scheffler, the world’s top-ranked golfer, earned his second title in three years at Augusta National on Sunday and won his fourth straight start overall. He entered the week as the pre-tournament favorite at +500 and played solid all week before pulling away in the final round with a 4-under 68. He had entered the day with a one-shot lead.

Ludvig Aberg was the runner-up in his Masters debut.

TRENDS OF THE WEEK

Before the first round, Scheffler was pulling in the most money (19.6%) to win outright and was on the most tickets (14.2%). That continued going into the final round, when he again led in money (25.5%) and tickets (15.2%)

Tiger Woods was a longshot with +12500 odds but still drew 5.4% of the tickets and 4.4% of the money. While Woods made the cut for the 24th consecutive time, which set a Masters record, he finished in 60th place after shooting 16 over.
