Patrick Reed holds off Jordan Spieth, Rickie Fowler to win Masters by one shot

AUGUSTA, Ga. – Never one to back down from a fight, Patrick Reed sure had one on his hands Sunday in the final round of the 82nd Masters.

The hero of the 2016 Ryder Cup took some mighty blows from Augusta National Golf Club but never went down – he is Captain America, after all – and now has a green jacket to drape over his red, white and blue cape.

Armed with a three-shot lead after 54 holes, Reed, the fiery, confrontational raging bull, channeled his emotions, held his nerve and called upon his considerable golf skills to withstand a host of the game’s best players on a tense, wild Masters Sunday that had the staff handling the famous white scoreboards working overtime.

“To win your first major is never going to be easy,” said Reed, who had never broken 70 in his previous four starts in the Masters. “It definitely wasn’t easy today. I knew it was going to be a dogfight.

“It’s just God basically saying, ‘Let’s see if you have it.’ Everyone knows you have it physically with the talent, but do you have it mentally? Can you handle the ups and downs throughout the round?”

He did just that with a final-round 1-under-par 71, holding off challenges from Rickie Fowler, Ryder Cup rival Rory McIlroy and Ryder Cup partner Jordan Spieth to win his first major title in 17 attempts. With a huge birdie from eight feet on the 14th and gut-check pars on 13, 15, 17 and 18 – the last a four-foot par save to conclude matters – Reed finished with rounds of 69-66-67-71 to end at 15-under 273.

 “I stuck to my game plan all week,” Reed said. “Even today, I didn’t stray from it at all. It’s something that I needed to learn, especially at a place like this, how important it is to stick to what I believe.”

Reed wound up one clear of Fowler, who shot 65-67 on the weekend but came up short in his bid to win his first major, while Spieth, who delivered the biggest charge with a 64 that included a last-hole bogey, wound up two back.

“Patrick, he’s not scared,” said Fowler, who since 2013 has eight top-10s in majors, the most without a victory. “He’s not scared on the golf course. He’ll play aggressive. He’ll play his game. He won’t back down.

“Gave it our all, left it all out there. Made P. Reed earn it.”

Jon Rahm shot 69 to finish four back. McIlroy, trying to complete the career Grand Slam, added to his star-crossed Masters history with a final-round 74 and tied for fifth.

Reed got off to a shaky start with an opening bogey but settled down when he canned a 15-footer for birdie on the third hole – “I needed that,” he said – and added another red number at the seventh when he stuffed his second shot from 133 yards to a foot for another birdie.

By this time, the battle was joined by a few players, including Spieth, who kept pecking away at his deficit with one birdie after another. The 2015 Masters champ made seven birdies in his first 13 holes and finally caught Reed with the last of his nine on the 16th hole.

“I’m kind of glad he ran out of holes,” Reed said.

Reed, however, never lost at least a share of the lead and made birdie on the 12th from 22 feet – his first birdie on the devilish par-3 hole.

Then fortune shined on him when his approach to the par-5 13th from 186 yards stayed on the bank fronting the green instead of rolling into Rae’s Creek and Reed made par.

He regained the lead with a birdie on the 14th from eight feet and then two-putted from 75 feet on the 17th for par and two-putted from 25 feet on the 18th to win the green jacket, his sixth PGA Tour title and $1.98 million.

“Everybody really likes battling Patrick, because he loves it so much and eats it up,” said Spieth, who has a win, two seconds and a third in five Masters starts.

“My only wish or regret from the week was that I was playing with him at some point on the weekend. But he’s a member of the Masters club now, he’ll have a green jacket forever. His name is etched in history.”

Big names line up for Masters dream

AUGUSTA, Ga. – Chasing a first Green Jacket is obviously tough. It is tougher if you start slower than you would have liked.

But a handful of big-name players clawed their way into contention on Friday, as tough scoring conditions presented themselves.

While 2015 winner Jordan Spieth came back to the pack, plenty who want to join him at the Champions Dinner, like Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson, Justin Rose, Justin Thomas and Rickie Fowler, made their moves.

McIlroy – chasing the career Grand Slam – added a 1-under 71 to his 69 opener to sit 4 under and tied fourth.

Johnson – the world No. 1 – birdied three of his last 11 holes to put up a 68 and move to 3 under and into sixth place.

Thomas – the FedExCup leader – produced a sublime 67 to rebound all the way to sixth place and will start six back Saturday.

Fowler couldn’t buy a putt for most of the day, but scratched out a 72 all the same to stay 2 under.

Rose – the runner up on two occasions – used a 70 to creep up on things and also sit 2 under.

They might not be leading the way – Patrick Reed dominated Friday to post in the clubhouse at 9 under – but they are close enough.

“Being up there around the lead going into the weekend, it’s a good position to be in,” McIlroy said.

“But I think I’m happier with how I’ve felt and how I’ve handled certain things and how my thought process has been. That’s been a pleasing thing.”

McIlroy was referencing his experience. In the past he felt the need to play aggressive almost always. Now he knows – especially on tough days – to bide his time.

And with heavy rain and possible high winds due Saturday, there is going to be plenty of grinding to come.

 “With the amount of times that I’ve been in contention or around the lead whether it be a regular PGA TOUR event or a major … every experience that you have in that arena in those situations, you learn a little bit from it each time,” he explained.

“Sometimes pars might be a little bit boring and you might feel as if you want to get a little bit more out of your round, but as you look up the leaderboard and you’re still there around the lead, that’s taken awhile for me to adjust to.

“When I first came out here on TOUR, I thought all these guys birdied every hole and you just had to hit unbelievable shot after unbelievable shot and hold the putt afterwards. It’s not quite like that.”

Thomas can make it two majors in a row with a big weekend and further solidify his spot at the top of the FedExCup.

His goal was to find his name on the iconic Augusta scoreboards on Friday and his six birdie, one bogey effort allowed it.

“You always want to see your name on that big board, because that means you’re doing something right, and I was glad to see I got thrown up there later in the day,” he said.

Fowler spent energy not getting annoyed with the plethora of putts that wouldn’t drop for him – instead believing his luck may change on the weekend.

He three-putted the 13th, 15th and 16th holes coming home.

“I’m happy where we’re at after two rounds,” he said.

“Definitely looking forward to the weekend and the putts are definitely due to fall.”

Johnson signaled his intentions early with an eagle on the par-5 second and although he was forced to grind through the middle of the round he stepped up when it counted with a couple of late birdies on 13 and 18.

The last world No. 1 to win the Masters was Tiger Woods in 2002.

In all there are eight major champions with 14 majors between them within seven shots of Reed’s lead. But only Bubba Watson (seven back) has won at Augusta.

The Masters 2018: Odds Favorites for Monday

The 2018 Masters is shaping up to be one of the most exciting editions of the tournament in its 82-year history. The field is boosted by the triumphant return of Tiger Woods, the legendary golfer who hasn’t even participated in a major championship in over two years, let alone won one in that span. He’s now going on nearly a decade without hoisting a trophy at a major, but that could easily change this year and the odds are indicating exactly that. There are also a number of young, exciting players—such as Jordan Speith and Rory McIlroy—hoping to don the world’s most famous green jacket on Sunday evening. Oddsmakers have just released updated lines for every golfer in the field at Augusta National and you might be surprised at who the favorites are.

The Masters Tournament tweeted out a clip showing Woods is ready to change his fortunes:

After an outstanding March that included a pair of top-five finishes at the Valspar Championship and the Arnold Palmer Invitational, Tiger Woods catapulted to the top of the odds table for this event. Due to the overwhelming attention that the Woods’ comeback was getting, the bookmakers in Vegas initially installed the 42-year-old as the odds-on favorite to win his fifth green jacket. At one point during the Arnold Palmer Invitational, Woods’ odds went soaring all the way up to the top of the Masters board at 8-1, but excitement surrounding the 14-time major champion has tempered a bit in the last few days. That, coupled with early action coming in on some other notable participants, caused the books to shift Tiger’s odds down to 12-1, where they currently sit at.

Odds consultant Scott Cooley at BetDSI explained the exact reasoning behind Woods’ line movement:

At the end of the day, Tiger Woods should have never been the favorite to win the 2018 Masters. Of course he’s been playing with more efficiency lately, and he’s the best to ever play Augusta, but he was made the favorite a few weeks ago only because of public perception. The sportsbooks anticipated a windfall of wagers on him, and BetDSI hasn’t seen that so the odds were adjusted. Until Tiger wins a tournament, he should never be favored over guys like Dustin Johnson, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth and a few others.

Tiger is still in the top-five, but is now listed behind odds-on favorite McIlroy (9.5-1), as well as Bubba Watson (10-1), Dustin Johnson (11-1) and Justin Thomas (12-1). That still puts Woods ahead of some of the golf world’s biggest stars, such as Spieth (13-1), Phil Mickelson (15-1), Ricky Fowler (17.5-1), Justin Rose (25-1) and Alexander Noren (25-1), a strong group that rounds out the top-10 for favorites at Augusta. Those are golfers that even the oddsmakers believe should not be behind Woods based on recent performance, but his popularity has a way of generating bets that other golfers simply aren’t capable of drawing based on name alone.

Justin Thomas, who won The Honda Classic in late-February—an event that Tiger finished 12th at—and his first major at the PGA Championship last year, admitted that even he’d go watch Woods over himself if he were a fan, as per Golf Digest:

He is the needle. He moves the needle. He’s the reason probably why the attendance this week was as high as it was, and you know, they weren’t coming out here to watch Luke List and Justin Thomas. They were coming out here to watch Tiger, so I don’t blame them. I’d go watch him, too, instead of me.

Skip Bayless thinks it is time for Tiger to win a tournament after his age 40-plus peers have had a recent run of success:

To capitalize on the excitement surrounding Woods’ return to the Masters, the sportsbooks have released a slew of prop bets relating to the superstar. These props range from where he’ll finish on the leaderboard to if he’ll hit it in the water on certain holes. There are also exotic wagers that cover the entire field, such as if a hole-in-one will occur during the tournament or whether or not the winning golfer will cry on the 18th green. There’s plenty more to check out, so take a peek at the full list at the end of this article.

Here’s a complete look at the most recent odds for every golfer in the field, plus the full schedule, television and live stream info so you can watch online and more for the 2018 Masters. Jon Price, along with his team at SportsInformationTraders.com, is currently analyzing all the options on the board to identify the best bets you can make on Tiger Woods and the rest of the participants at Augusta National this year. Check back here on Forbes throughout the week for in-depth betting predictions and the top prop wagers from the pro Vegas handicapper.
