2026 Masters Picks & Predictions: Tyrrell Hatton

by |

The best golfers in the world will be in Augusta, Georgia, this week for the first major of the year, The Masters. We’re going to share our top 2026 Masters picks and predictions.

Augusta National Golf Club is simultaneously a feast for the eyes and a stern test of golfing acumen. The Georgia pines and blooming azaleas highlight Augusta's beauty, but this world-renowned course demands precise ballstriking and short-game excellence.

Rory McIlroy had an epic victory at last year's Masters to earn his first Green Jacket. Can he successfully defend his title, or will the No. 1 player in the world, Scottie Scheffler, win at Augusta for the third time in five years? PGA Tour stars Ludvig Aberg and Xander Schauffele are looking for a career-altering victory, and big-hitting LIV Tour stalwarts Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau will be in the hunt.

Welcome to the fifth annual BettingPros Guide to The Masters. We'll take a deep dive into the field, taking a closer look at the players contending for the coveted Green Jacket. Which players provide betting value and which are bad bets? Read on.

Course History

The plainspoken Hatton has made it clear that he doesn’t particularly care for Augusta National, even though he’s gotten better at navigating it. After either missing the cut or finishing outside the top 40 in five of his first six Masters, Hatton has cracked the top 15 in each of the last two years.

Recent Form

Hatton isn’t having an especially good year on the LIV Tour. He finished third at LIV Golf Adelaide in February, but he’s finished 45th, 10th and 38th in the three events he’s played over the last month. Hatton ranks 43rd on the LIV Tour in driving accuracy and 33rd in greens in regulation, suggesting that his ballstriking needs fine-tuning.

2026 Masters Outlook & Predictions

Hatton finished 16th or better in three of the four 2025 majors, including The Masters. He finished fourth at the U.S, Open and was in contention until the end. But Hatton has a fraught relationship with Augusta National, and it’s hard to see him breaking through at a course that’s vexed him when his form has been substandard,
