Jon Rahm is still ranked first for something.

A week since Rahm, who’s looking for his first victory in 2022, lost the No. 1 spot in the world rankings, the Spaniard still holds the best odds to come away with the green jacket at the end of Masters week.

Rahm is listed at +1100 by PointsBet. Justin Thomas, who has four top-10s in seven starts this year, shares the second-best odds at +1400 with Scottie Scheffler, who overtook Rahm as the No. 1 player in the world last week after his victory at the WGC-Match Play, his third PGA Tour win in 42 days.

Cam Smith, making his first start since winning The Players last month, has the next-best odds at +1600, with 2020 Masters champion Dustin Johnson following him at +1700.

Defending champion Hideki Matsuyama is listed at +5000 — tied for the field’s 10th-best odds — as he continues to battle a nagging neck injury.

Tiger Woods, still listed as playing, is at +8000. And if you decide to put an early wager down on the Big Cat, but his “game-time decision” is that he won’t play, you won’t lose anything as you will get your wager back.

Here is a look at the notable odds to win the 86th Masters Tournament:
