Spring Golf Betting Trends 2025

Spring Betting Trends 2025

Golf betting is hitting its stride in 2025, and spring is where the action tees off. From packed leaderboards to skyrocketing wagers, this season is shaping up as a bettor’s paradise. Whether you’re new to the game or a seasoned handicapper, here’s what’s driving the golf betting buzz this spring and why it’s the perfect time to jump in.

A Betting Boom in Full Swing:

The numbers don’t lie, golf betting is exploding. In 2024, U.S. sports betting topped $13 billion (American Gaming Association), with golf’s share climbing fast—up 15% year-over-year. Golf betting is fueled by the year’s first major showdowns. The Masters, kicking off April 10-13 at Augusta National, is the crown jewel. Industry insiders estimate it raked in $100 million+ in bets last year alone. With 38 states now legalizing sports betting by early 2025, more fans are tossing their hats in the ring, and golf’s unpredictability keeps them hooked. The next big major is the PGA Championship May 15-18 at Quail Hollow Club.

Spring’s Hot Odds: Who’s Leading the Pack?

The 2025 spring slate is loaded with talent, and oddsmakers are buzzing. Here’s the early rundown as of March 3rd:
- Scottie Scheffler (+475): The world No. 1’s precision makes him a spring favorite. It’s hard to bet against this guy.
- Rory McIlroy (+800): Chasing the  coveted Green Jacket, Rory’s a wild card with big upside. He’s had a roller coaster of a career playing at Augusta National.
- Jon Rahm (+1300): His ball striking and short game thrives here. He’s a solid pick for April glory.

Underdogs are in play too—Ludvig Aberg (+1600) and Bryson DeChambeau (+2200) could shake things up after both played well at the Masters last year. DeChambeau’s power helps him excel here. Tournaments like the Masters are exciting events and odds shift fast. These odds change quickly so make sure you stay up to date with the newest changes.

Spring 2025’s betting scene is evolving fast—here’s what’s hot:

Live Action– Live betting is taking over, wager on the next birdie or who leads after day 1. Major events, with their shifting leaderboards, are tailored for it. When live betting be extra careful, course conditions at the majors can turn a birdie look into a bogey, quickly!

Tech Meets Turf– Byson DeChambeau’s new irons, designed and produced with Avoda Golf, were the buzz of last years Masters. Just approved barely in time for use, DeChambeau played hot with them last year. LAB putters and other putter tech are another hot trend. With Augusta’s unforgiving greens this years winner’s short game has to be top notch. Will Zalatoris switched to a LAB putter in 2023 and is now T16 in putt average. What player with a new putter will help them the most this year? Our pick is Collin Morikawa and his new putter.

Why Spring is the most exciting time for golf bettors:

Spring’s golf calendar is pure gold—warm weather, fresh green fairways, and the majors’ kickoff. The Masters (April 10-13) sets the tone with its prestige and betting frenzy—millions tune in, and millions more bet. Then there’s the PGA Championship in May, keeping the momentum rolling. It’s not just the stakes; it’s the stories—new champs, epic collapses, and odds-defying runs. Spring is when golf betting feels alive.
