Brooks Koepka Cut For Masters As Bettors Expect Him To Win WGC Workday
Sportsbooks were quick to move last night when four time major winner and 2019 Masters runner-up Brooks Koepka surged to the lead in the WGC Workday at Concession Golf Club. Koepka, who won the Phoenix Open three weeks ago, leads a quality field in Florida and is showing signs that he’s right back to his imperious best.
After an opening round 67, Koepka followed up on Friday with an impressive six-under par 66, carding 7 birdies on the day to take a one-shot lead into the weekend’s play. Koepka, who started the PGA Tour season with three straight missed cuts now finds himself right back to his best and has stamped a serious early marker down for the first major of the year; The Masters. Sportsbooks have now cut his odds to a very best price of +1400 (14/1) to win in April at Augusta and you can expect those odds to shorten further if he gets the job done this weekend.
Talking of this weekend and bettors are aligned with the books in thinking Koepka will come out on top this weekend. Kopeka is a best price +275 to win at Concession and has taken 61% of total bets since the play finished up after round two.
