The US Masters is back again for all golf enthusiasts out there! Not only that but DraftKings Sportsbook are offering new users $20 in free bets (4 sets of $5 bets) that you can use towards the tournament, whether it be picking an overall winner or putting them towards any of the props on the DraftKings Sportsbook site.
With DraftKings Sportsbook you don’t have to bet the overall winner. If you feel that a player is in good form however not sure if they will win then you can place a ‘top 5’ or ‘top 10’ bet. This allows you to put a bet on any player to finish in the ‘top 5’ or ‘top 10’ of the tournament.
This will not only increase your chances of winning however it will also allow you place more bets (creating opportunities for more winners).
Of course, the odds will be reduced when you open up the places the player can finish so, for example, DraftKings Sportsbook has the following odds on the players listed below:
DraftKings Sportsbook Top 5 Players Odds
Player | To Win | Top 5 | Top 10 |
Rory McIlroy | +750 | +175 | -167 |
Dustin Johnson | +1000 | +200 | +110 |
Justin Rose | +1200 | +200 | +125 |
Jon Rahm | +1400 | +350 | +175 |
Tiger Woods | +1400 | +350 | +164 |
If you want to increase your chances even more then you can place a bet on a player to finish in the ‘top 20’ and as discussed above the odds will decrease when giving your bet an increased chance of winning.

Parlay Betting in Golf
Like all other sports parlay betting in golf is pretty straightforward and can win you a lot of money at once. As we always mention, all of your bets have to win for your parlay bet to win and if only one loses then all of your other bets lose.
With the US Masters 2019 you obviously can’t bet more than one winner however you can mix and match your bets, for example:
- Tiger Woods to win
- Rory McIlroy to finish in top 5
- Jon Rahm to finish in top 10
If you parlay the bets above and Woods wins the masters, McIlroy finishes in the top 5 however Rahm finishes 11th then you will lose.
Your parlay bet can be a lot more solid than that with a few players finishing in the top 20 so put your golfing knowledge to the test and see if you can earn that big pay-out to upgrade your golfing clubs whilst making the tournament even more exciting this year.
You check what your parlay would win by inputting up to 15 bets into our parlay calculator before placing your bet.
