You might have heard this before: Scottie Scheffler is leading a PGA Tour event once again, comfortably ahead of the competition at The Masters as we approach the weekend.
Having secured three victories in his last five tournaments, Scheffler is well accustomed to being in the lead, andOntario sports betting betting agencies recognize his prowess, giving him +100 odds to clinch the title after the second round, a surprising figure for many.
Sitting at eight-under par, Scheffler stands out as the top contender, while four players, including last year's champion Hideki Matsuyama, are trailing behind at -3. Matsuyama is among a group of five golfers currently listed at +1200 odds atBet365 Canada to win The Masters, sharing the spotlight with Dustin Johnson, Justin Thomas, Shane Lowry, and Cameron Smith.
This year’s Masters is notable for being the first under a fully regulated and competitive sports betting environment in Ontario, whichlaunched on April 4 .
Just behind him is the Canadian player Corey Conners, who had a strong start to his second round but stumbled slightly, finishing with a couple of bogeys. He ended the day at one-over par, placing him at -1 for the tournament, tied with Justin Thomas and Collin Morikawa, the third-best player globally.
Tiger Woods saw an improvement in his odds for The Masters after practice rounds earlier this week but couldn’t replicate that in the first round (-1), ending up with a total score of +1 after a second round of two-over par on Friday.

Canadian Again in the Hunt
Conners has managed to find 71% of fairways and hit 67% of greens this week, performing comparably to the rest of the competitors. He’s no stranger to the top 10 at Augusta, having finished there for the last two years.
He’s hoping to leverage that familiarity as he approaches the weekend, aiming for his first green jacket. Even though he shares a score with Thomas, Conners' odds are significantly longer at +4500.
Given his recent strong performances and current positioning, this presents a good opportunity for bettors, especially with odds of +180 available for him to maintain his place in the top 10.track record at Augusta Conners is set to tee off alongside Cam Smith at 2:10 PM on Saturday, making them the 22nd group out of 26.

Another Canadian Makes the Cut
With gusty winds forecasted for the afternoon tomorrow, Hughes’ early start will be beneficial, allowing him to navigate most of the course in easier weather conditions. He’ll be teeing off at 10:20 AM local time, paired with Adam Scott in the first group of Saturday.
Considering Scheffler’s significant lead, placing bets on any other contender seems intriguing but may not produce any tangible results, as it would require both a slip-up from Scheffler and an outstanding performance from another player to shake up the standings.
Nevertheless, the favorable conditions anticipated for early players might lead to some notable shifts on the leaderboard as the day progresses, though it’s unlikely to impact the frontrunner.
