It’s literally impossible for the 2025 RBC Heritage to recreate the magic of last week’s 89th Masters. First, Rory McIlroy, the world’s most popular and best golfer (not counting Tiger Woods, of course), is skipping this week after spectacularly winning his first green jacket this past weekend. That immediately lowers the prestige of the RBC Heritage. On top of that, Hideki Matsuyama isn’t in the field, nor are the dozen LIV Tour golfers who teed it up at Augusta last week.

I have a little extra money in my betting accounts after hitting Rory McIlroy to win the 2025 Masters. Instead of doing the smart thing and cashing out, I'm re-investing (responsibly) in the MLB market on Monday, especially since I'm running hot in baseball right now. That said, I plan to rob Peter (MLB) to pay Paul (RBC Heritage on the PGA TOUR) later this week. Let's hope it works. MLB Betting Card: April 14The odds are the best available at the time of writing.

Rory McIlroy made history on Sunday by beating Justin Rose in a playoff to win one of the craziest Masters ever. McIlroy held a two-stroke lead after 54 holes, which he immediately gave up on Hole No. 1 in the final round. As someone who bet the Irishman to win, it was excruciating to watch because it felt like he lost the Masters five different times in Sunday's final round.
