At OntarioBets.com, as part of our Ontario sports betting coverage, we’re keeping a close eye on Conners to see how he fares in the majors of 2025.
With just two career wins under his belt (both at the Valero Texas Open), Conners' outright odds above for the Masters were far from overwhelming. But while heavy weights like Scottie Scheffler, Jon Rahm and Hideki Matsuyama had captured the last four Green Jackets (Scheffler won in '22 and '24), the Masters has had its share of longshot winners.
Conners' odds at Caesars Ontario Sportsbook for instance (along with BetMGM and bet365) were +5000, the same pre-tourney odds 2016 champion Danny Willett and 2012 champion Bubba Watson were saddled with before their lives changed forever later in the week. Those odds were also much shorter than other modern shockers at Augusta, including Charl Schwartzel in 2011 (+10000), Angel Cabrera in 2009 (+12500) and Trevor Immelman in 2008 (+15000).
So was Conners priced appropriately? We tend to think so. Willett and Watson's best respective finishes at Augusta before their wins were T38 (Willett) and T20 (Watson).
While Rory McIlroy ultimately captured the green jacket and completed the career Grand Slam, Conners represented nicely with a T8. That means more positive course history and experience to lean on when he returns to Augusta next year.

Conners has four top-10's at Augusta since 2020. That's the same number of top-10's as Rahm (who, yes, of course won in 2023 – but is priced far differently than Conners as a result). Players the likes of Matsuyama, Patrick Cantlay and even McIlroy can't say the same about their recent course history, so don't count out our man Conners just yet.
With his ball-striking ability and history at Augusta, it's worth keeping an eye on Conners throughout the years.
It wouldn't be much of a Canadian-tiered Masters preview if we didn't quickly mention others in the field. Conners' countrymen Nick Taylor (the 2024 Canadian Open winner) and one-time PGAT winner Taylor Pendrith were also in the field, as was 2003 champion and 2024 International Presidents Cup captain Mike Weir.
At DraftKings Ontario Sportsbook, Conners (+100) was the favorite to be low Canadian, followed by Pendrith (+225), Taylor (+300) and finally the 54-year-old Weir (+3500).
