Course History is more predictive here than at any other tournament. Players who miss the cut often do so repeatedly; players who finish Top 10 tend to do so repeatedly. The course demands a high draw (right-to-left shot) off the tee. Key Stat: 'Strokes Gained: Approach'. You cannot scramble your way to a Green Jacket; you must hit greens in regulation. Avoid betting on debutants (rookies); the last rookie to win was in 1979. Also, the 'Winner to come from the Final Pairing' on Sunday is a strong trend.
Golf is a large field over several rounds, so course setup, rough height, green speed and wind windows shape the leaderboard as much as form. Draw luck matters when conditions differ between early and late starters. Scoring format, whether strokes or matchplay, changes how aggressive players can afford to be. Attention usually sits on outright and each way prices, top finishing groups, matchups between two players and made cut markets.
