The Masters 2026 tips: Three best each-way bets for Augusta

It is Masters week and the greats of golf head to Augusta National to attempt to win the first Major of the year and claim a coveted Green Jacket.

World number one Scottie Scheffler, who triumphed at the Georgia course in 2024, is at the head of the market with defending champion Rory McIlroy not too far behind

However, there is always plenty of excitement and drama and plenty of unfancied runners have triumphed in the past.

Bryson DeChambeau and former champion Jon Rahm lead the charge from the players who left to join LIV Golf, but there are a host of others who have strong each-way claims, with Betway offering a fifth of the odds for the first seven places this week.

Here are our three golf betting each-way selections for the first Major of the year.

Three best each-way bets

  • Brooks Koepka each‑way @ 40/1

  • Jake Knapp each‑way @ 66/1

  • Sungjae Im each-way @ 80/1

Koepka could be bubbling under

It has been a year of change for five-time Major champion Brooks Koepka after he rejoined the PGA Tour from LIV, but he is a player who tends to rise to the big occasion and should be trusted to mount a strong bid this week.

Koepka has admitted in the past that he has motivation problems for lower-profile tournaments, but that should not be a problem this week.

The American overcame a few teething troubles to finish ninth at the Cognizant Classic,13th at the Players Championship and 18th at the Valspar Championship recently.

He missed the cut last time out at the Houston Open, but he should be firmly on the ball this week and can make a strong impression.

Tip 1: Brooks Koepka each‑way @ 40/1

Knapp looks like a changed man

Jake Knapp was 55th on his only Augusta appearance two years ago and that is the only time he has made a Major cut, but his recent results have been excellent, so we can expect a much better showing this time around.

He has had seven top-ten finishes since June, including fifth at the Farmers Insurance Open, eighth at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am and sixth at the Genesis Invitational.

Knapp recovered from missing the cut at the Players to finish sixth at the Houston Open, when he carded a 62 in his final round and he could have a memorable week.

Tip 2: Jake Knapp each‑way @ 66/1

Im can enjoy Augusta return

Sungjae Im has had a difficult start to 2026 as a wrist injury forced him out of the PGA Tour’s first seven tournaments, but he tends to come to life at Augusta and is a big price to get into the frame.

The South Korean hopeful was second on his debut when the tournament was played in November 2020, was eighth two years later and fifth last year when he emerged from some indifferent form.

It has been a similar story this year, but he should have taken something from the fourth place he attained in last month’s Valspar Championship, so don’t be surprised if he rises to the occasion.

Tip 3: Sungjae Im each-way @ 80/1
