The setting is fit for peak levels of drama, standoffs, and gossip and Augusta National is the definition of a fancy schmancy country club golf venue to fit the bill. The cast of characters is a wonderfully messy mix of the world\u2019s best golfers who have taken two very different paths with careers and lives in recent months. The tension in the air is palpable as several LIV Golf Tour members are back playing in the same tournament as their PGA Tour counterparts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After months of tee-throwing, spirited jabs, and snarky rebuttals at press conferences between the rival tour members, everyone in golf who wants to live in history converges at The Masters. The drama will surely get going on the driving range Monday, and ramp up with the annual champions dinner hosted by Scottie Scheffler on Tuesday night. Then, as players tee it up for real, the conversation turns to who can take down the first major of 2023. Will the PGA Tour\u2019s unofficial commissioner Rory raise the trophy to complete the career Grand Slam and flip the bird to LIV Golfers? Or, will a LIV Golf member grab the most significant win of their career and change the landscape of the game? Let\u2019s get to the major players on both sides and how they will fare:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ninth Green at Nine?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Scottie Scheffler jokingly wedged in the Happy Gilmore reference in his champions dinner invite, but he absolutely put that energy out there for a potential feud to ensue on golf\u2019s most hallowed grounds. Even with <a href=\"https:\/\/articles.runyourpool.com\/2023\/03\/21\/scottie-schefflers-masterful-menu\/\">Scottie\u2019s Masterful Menu<\/a>, he put together you still can\u2019t save the awkwardness about to ensue. With a whopping SEVEN LIV Tour Golfers represented annually at this dinner that you\u2019re invited to for life, you have to figure the verbal sparring can\u2019t be held back the entire night. Between Phil Mickelson, Patrick Reed, and Sergio Garcia there\u2019s not much filter at this point in time for any of them, and that\u2019s less than half of the contingent representing the new offshoot tour on Tuesday night in the Augusta National clubhouse. There should be some sort of fireworks that emerge during tournament week, and I\u2019m here for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">LIV Golf Favorites at the Masters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond the contingent of past Masters champions that will forever tee it up at Augusta National each April, there are other LIV Tour golfers that are still eligible via their past status and current world ranking which gets them <em>at least <\/em>one more shot at a Green Jacket in 2023. Defending champion at The Open Cam Smith leads the way at 18\/1 odds amongst LIV golfers competing, followed closely by Dustin Johnson (22\/1), and Brooks Koepka and Joaquin Niemann at 50\/1 to win. You have to move pretty far down the board to find a struggling Bryson DeChambeau at 75\/1 odds, and a thinner richer Phil Mickelson at 200\/1, despite owning three green jackets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Alex\u2019s LIV Plays:&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Dustin Johnson 22\/1<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Joaquin Niemann 50\/1<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Abraham Ancer 80\/1<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/articles.runyourpool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/LIV_Golf_23077081741507.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-74590\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/31195508\/LIV_Golf_23077081741507.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/31195508\/LIV_Golf_23077081741507-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/31195508\/LIV_Golf_23077081741507-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by Chris Trotman\/LIV Golf via AP<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PGA Tour Favorites at the Masters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You don\u2019t have to move your eyes anywhere along the board to find the Big Three of golf in 2023 atop the Masters betting odds to win. Jon Rahm, Scottie Scheffler, and Rory McIlroy all sit around +750 or +800 to win, and lately, on the PGA Tour, it\u2019s been mandatory to have at least one of the three on your card. Rahm has had close calls at Augusta, Scottie defends his title and Rory chases the career grand slam &#8211; storylines galore at the top of the mountain. After that we see a litany of Netflix \u201cFull Swing\u201d stars as potential green jacket recipients Justin THomas and Collin Morikawa have the look and the feel of a Masters champion, but haven\u2019t gotten there yet. The two of them and Jordan Spieth all sit around +2000 in the second tier of contenders from the main tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Alex\u2019s PGA Tour Plays:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Rory McIlroy 8\/1<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Justin Thomas 20\/1<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Will Zalatoris 25\/1<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles.runyourpool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Valspar_Championship_Golf_23076828782237.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-74591\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/31195527\/Valspar_Championship_Golf_23076828782237.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/31195527\/Valspar_Championship_Golf_23076828782237-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-assets.runyourpool.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/31195527\/Valspar_Championship_Golf_23076828782237-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">AP Photo\/Mike Carlson<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who to Take: LIV or PGA Tour at Augusta?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the end, when it comes to the action on the course and which golfers are going to be most ready to contend, it\u2019s the PGA Tour\u2019s brass that is charging through the middle of their season and taking on many more competitive reps. You have to figure in the mental and physical stamina of 72 holes of major championship golf, and at this point, LIV golfers haven\u2019t been testing their games the way they normally would have headed into a major championship season. I\u2019ll still be sprinkling a couple of plays on past champions to contend, and my oh my would that be a storyline if one or more are contending to win. Overall, a majority of my picks will be leaning toward the PGA Tour\u2019s top talent until the LIV elite can prove there isn\u2019t any rust to shake off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We figured this day would come eventually.
