It’s no BetOnline scam to see odds for the 2012 Masters up already as it’s arguably the most prestigious golf tournament in the world and there are a few major storylines heading into Augusta. Here is a look at five players worth taking a look at.

Tiger Woods (+400): His win at the Chevron World Challenge was a relief, and Wagerweb reviews are tell you that he’s a four-time winner at Augusta and hasn’t finished outside the top six here since 2004, when he finished T-22, his lowest finish as a pro at the Masters. Through all of his problems, Woods always plays well here and if he can only play one tournament a year, this is it, so look for his best.

Rory McIlroy (+700): McIlroy was cruising to the Green Jacket, but the most astute person that uses price per head bookie software watched the then-21-year-old Northern Ireland native shot an 80 on Sunday in a collapse of historic proportions. Since then, he has won a U.S. Open and the Augusta nightmare of behind him. In fact, we think McIlroy is awaiting the chance to have another crack at Augusta.

Phil Mickelson (+1000): Mickelson finished T-27 at the Masters last year, and it was only his second time outside of the top seven since 2000 at this course. Like Woods, he has an affinity for the course and the history of the event and he has three Green Jackets to his name. He has been toying with a belly putter for the last couple of months, on the advice of PGA Championship winner Keegan Bradley, but those who might purchase price per head services may be wary of his health issues (arthritis).

Luke Donald (+1600): Donald won the money title on both the PGA and European tours this season and is the undisputed No.1 player in the world, but the Englishman needs a major championship to validate his place in the game. He has played steady over the last 12 months, but now he has to carry it over after the offseason, which has been a problem for many golfers who have risen, then tumbled, after Woods’ demise.

Webb Simpson (+3000): Simpson may have been the surprise of 2011, winning two PGA events and finishing with 12 top-10 results in 26 starts, which earned him a spot on the Presidents Cup team. Like Donald, he’ll have to carry that over, but he has the added pressure of aiming to prove he isn’t a one-year wonder, which players see plenty of on the PGA Tour. Watch Simpson’s early-season play in 2012, and he could move up the list on online betting sites.
