Spieth new Masters betting favorite; McIlroy 5/1
After only one round at the 2018 Masters, Jordan Spieth is now a prohibitive betting favorite to slip into a second green jacket.The Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook listed Spieth as a 7/1 favorite when Masters betting opened in August, and he teed off Thursday as a 10/1 co-favorite with Justin Thomas. But after taking an early lead with a 6-under 66, Spieth's odds to win have been trimmed to just 2/1.In closest pursuit on the betting board is Rory McIlroy, who is tied for fourth after a 3-under 69. McIlroy began the tournament at 12/1 but is now just 5/1 odds to complete the final leg of the career Grand Slam.Here's a look at the odds for the contenders still left standing after the opening round at Augusta National, along with a few of the favorites whose chances to win have all but vanished:2/1: Jordan Spieth5/1: Rory McIlroy14/1: Phil Mickelson, Matt Kuchar16/1: Henrik Stenson, Rickie Fowler20/1: Patrick Reed25/1: Justin Rose30/1: Dustin Johnson, Tiger Woods, Tony Finau, Marc Leishman40/1: Rafael Cabrera-Bello, Justin Thomas, Charley Hoffman50/1: Bubba Watson, Louis Oosthuizen, Tommy Fleetwood60/1: Adam Hadwin, Hideki Matsuyama, Zach Johnson80/1: Haotong Li, Xander Schauffele100/1: Paul Casey125/1: Jason Day150/1: Jon Rahm250/1: Adam Scott2000/1: Sergio Garcia

"I think I was in the middle of flying home when D.J. finished [the Players], and I had been told [I was No. 1]. And it was like, OK, I'm almost home, but when I wake up tomorrow [and see it].
