Following his impressive start to the Arnold Palmer Invitational, where he seeks a record ninth victory at Bay Hill, bookmakers have reported thousands of bets on a 2018 Masters win.
Last year, it seemed unlikely that Woods would make a return at all. The odds were as large as 100/1 for a Masters success this year, but they are now the lowest they’ve been since 2014, according to the Irish bookmaker Paddy Power.
Currently, Woods is rated at just 7/4 — compared with 8/1 at the start of the year — to win a major in 2018 and 25/1 to be named World Number One.
Conversely, he’s priced at 20/1 to retire from the sport altogether, a price that has gone out from 9/1 following his recent performance.
A spokesperson for Paddy Power said:
I’ve always been a fan of a romantic comeback, and it looks as though our punters think Tiger is onto a Masters winner.
His odds are tumbling at a frightening pace, and we could be in for a hefty pay-out next month at this rate.
