The Masters golf parlay picks: Rory McIlroy, Bryson DeChambeau headline PGA vs. LIV matchups at Augusta National

Before the 90th Masters Tournament tees off on Thursday, April 8, Dimers has you covered with our best golf bets, full golf predictions and outright picks for who will don the latest green jacket on Sunday at Augusta National Golf Club.

As we do for every tournament and major event, we've analyzed the best Masters bets, boosted two golfers to finish Top 20 and now it’s time to dive into some matchups angles with these +700 golf parlay picks, with a special theme featuring three PGA golfers vs. their LIV counterparts, including Rory McIlroy vs. Bryson DeChambeau.

Outright winners and Top-5, Top-10 and Top-20 markets typically draw the most attention, but head-to-head matchups can be just as profitable as you are narrowing down the field of competition to just a handful of golfers.

To make this market easier, Dimers uses an in-house head-to-head golf simulation tool that pits any two golfers directly against each other and projects who will finish higher, whether for Round 1 or across the full 72 holes for every tournament on the PGA TOUR.

Masters parlay picks at +700 odds

To make this parlay, we'll be using the Head-to-Head matchups available at DraftKings Sportsbook. We'll enter both golfers into our H2H Predictor, select the Tournament-long option, and see which golfer gets the advantage for the weekend.

With a handy "Fair Odds" to "Percentages" toggle, you can always check to see if there's value in any given matchup, and with a Dimers Pro subscription, you can simulate unlimited matchups for every tournament.

Leg 1: Rory McIlroy to beat Bryson DeChambeau (-112)

There's perhaps no better LIV vs. PGA matchup than Rory vs. Bryson, with a little rivalry going back to pre-LIV days for DeChambeau and appropriately spicing things back up at last year's Masters.

Rory left that one a champion, completing the career Grand Slam, and Bryson left with a T5, his best yet.

Now, DeChambeau was great in majors last year, with a T2 and T10 alongside a cut across the other three, and he won the US Open the year prior to missing the cut.

Still, Rory is in a class above and in head-to-head matchups, floor matters and his is higher, missing just two cuts at majors in the past five years and only three finishes outside the Top 25, while DeChambeau has missed four cuts and five finishes outside the Top 30 in that same span.

McIlroy gets a 52.5% probabilty to win this matchup compared to Bryson's 43.1%, but the books have DeChambeau a slight favorite at -118, pointing to a misprice according to the Dimers model.

Leg 2: Tyrrell Hatton to beat Corey Conners (-112)

Next up, we're backing the LIV side in a matchup the books have priced at nearly a coin flip, but with a notable favorite by our model.

The difference between Tyrrell Hatton (-112) and Corey Conners (-116) on the books is a nominal one, less than a difference of 0.9%. But the Dimers model says Hatton has an 8% advantage to win this matchup, with a 4.4% of a tie.

That means that there should be a bigger price gap between these two golfers, and that Conners shouldn't even be shorter than +100.

Both have a mix of good, middle and poor results at Augusta, with Hatton finishing T14, T9 and T34 in his past three, and Conners at T8, T38 and a cut, posting very similar results across all four majors last year.

Leg 3: Patrick Reed to beat Hideki Matsuyama (+125)

For our final pick, we'll stick on the LIV side in a matchup between two former Masters champions, 2018's champion, Patrick Reed and the 2021 winner, Hideki Matsuyama.

Now, our model actually favors Matsuyama, by a mere 0.8%, effectively pricing this one as a coin flip.

Meanwhile, the books have Reed as a notable underdog at +125 (44.4% implied) with Matsuyama at -162 (61.8% implied). Even if you factor in ties, our model says neither should be favored at shorter than -110.

Matsuyama has been consistent at Augusta, finishing T14, T16, T38 and T21 since his victory. Meanwhile, Reed has flashed that winning upside a few times, coming close to winning his second Masters with a T4 in 2023 and solo 3rd last year, along with a T10, T8 and T12, winning this head-to-head matchup in three straight Masters.

Reed has a pair of wins on LIV and a playoff runner-up, and while Matsuyama showed some spark early this year with a playoff runner-up and three other Top 15s, he hasn't cracked the Top 20 in four straight events, outside the Top 25 in three of them.

The Dimers model says take the value with the underdog who's won three straight head-to-heads at Augusta.
