We're getting closer to the Masters, and there are only so many chances remaining to get into form for those who aren't.
This week's Houston Open presents such an opportunity, with World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy headlining an otherwise thin field at Memorial Park.

Houston Open field
Scottie Scheffler will be a rightful betting favorite at Memorial Park this week, considering his solid form and the fact he's finished runner-up in two of his last three trips to Houston. His odds are running as short as +333.
Rory McIlroy is also in the field for what will be his Houston Open debut. He took a much-deserved week off last week after winning THE PLAYERS Championship the week prior in what was his third worldwide over his last six starts.
This field is otherwise a mixed bag, with Aaron Rai (+2500), Jason Day (+3300), and 2022 champion Tony Finau (+3300) rounding out the Top 5. Defending champion Stephen Jaeger is available between +3300 to +4500.
