Understanding Hold Percentages on Masters Cut Odds

Alongside our cut odds for each golfer, we’ve included a “hold” percentage—an important metric for evaluating betting value. Hold represents the sportsbook’s margin, calculated by adding the implied probabilities of both sides of the same market (in this case, “make the cut” and “miss the cut”).

For example:

  • Dustin Johnson to make the cut: -200 (66.7%)
  • To miss the cut: +125 (44.4%)
  • Combined implied probability: 111.1%
  • Hold = 11.1%

Since one of the two outcomes must happen, anything over 100% reflects the built-in margin.

Hold Categories

Holds vary by golfer, and at the 2025 Masters, we’ve observed significant differences. Some players, often due to name value, uncertain form, or public betting volume, have much higher hold percentages.

We’ve grouped golfers based on their hold range:

  • Low: Below 6%
  • Average: 6% to below 9%
  • High: 9% to 11%
  • Very High: Above 11%

A “Very High” hold suggests less clarity around a golfer’s true cut probability. This often happens when sportsbooks anticipate or have already taken a lot of action on both sides. Notable examples include Phil Mickelson, Charl Schwartzel, and Xander Schauffele, all with some mix of volatility, injury history, or fan-driven betting volume.

We’ll display golfers in tiers based on their odds to make the cut, with hold percentages provided to help you spot uncertainty and potential inefficiencies.

  • Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy are in their own category, with odds to miss the cut substantially lower than many other golfers in the top tiers.
  • Xander Schauffele‘s recent form after his injury and Bryson DeChambeau‘s inconsistencies at Augusta are likely leading to more variability around their odds of making the cut.

  • Several LIV veterans show up here with typically higher holds, including Sergio Garcia, Patrick Reed, and Dustin Johnson.
  • Some golfers who rank higher in our golfer rankings, like Aaron Rai (No. 22), Taylor Pendrith (No. 23), and Davis Thompson (No. 41), show up lower here in “make the cut” odds, likely accounting for more risk as they are making their Masters debuts. They are still the Masters rookies with the highest relative “make the cut” odds this week.

  • Charl Schwartzel and Phil Mickelson are the two golfers in the 2025 Masters field with the highest holds, over 14% on their make-or-miss cut numbers. Both are past their primes but have played Augusta National well over their careers, likely leading to the high variation in odds offered for both.

  • Five former champions are at the bottom of the odds list to make the cut this year. That includes Angel Cabrera, who is playing for the first time since 2019 after serving jail time in Brazil and Argentina related to domestic violence charges.
  • Thriston Lawrence and Rafael Campos are the two current professionals (not former champions) with the lowest odds to make the cut.
  • Adding all 90 golfers up, we get 53.6 to make the cut. If we assume that the amateurs average a 20% to 25% chance to make the cut, that gets us to about 54.8 golfers on average to make the cut at the 2025 Masters. At the last five Masters, the median was 54.0, and the mean was 56.0, with a range of 52 and 60 golfers making the cut in recent years under the “Top 50 and ties” rule.
