New Coral customers can get treble odds on US Masters winner

With the US Masters, one of golf’s flagship tournaments, approaching, Coral are offering an outstanding new customer offer of treble odds on any golfer to win the Green Jacket, staking £5.

This means that 2014 winner Bubba Watson would be available at 30/1 currently, and with a fiver staked, if he did win, it would mean a staggering return of £150!

Current favourite Rory McIlroy is available at 17/1 and he only needs this tournament to complete a Grand Slam of Majors. The Northern Irishman said it would be unthinkable if he didn’t win in Augusta at some point.

“If I was to look back as a 60-year-old at my career and had not won a green jacket I would be very disappointed,” said McIlroy.

“It is the only one left and it is a course I feel I can do well at. I feel I could win multiple times, but getting that first one is the most important thing.

“Winning all four Majors means you are a complete player. I can achieve something special.”

Jordan Spieth, at 21, is one to watch after his second tour win recently, and current odds would also see him priced at 30/1 with the American golfer targeting McIlroy’s world number one spot.

“I like studying the game, being a historian of the game,” Spieth said in the run-up to the tournament. “It’s really cool to have my name go alongside those.

“But right now currently what I’m really focused on is McIlroy and the No.1 in the world. That’s who everyone is trying to chase.

“That’s our ultimate goal to eventually be the best in the world and this is a great, great stepping stone. But going into the four Majors of the year, to have closed one out in this kind of fashion is going to give me a lot of confidence.”
