Do online betting sites know something that we don't?

Across the board, Tiger Woods has been installed as the favorite to win the US Masters at the Augusta National Golf Club, taking place from April 7 - 10.

However, considering Woods' dismal track record since November 2009, the question on everyone's lips is 'why?'

Bodog has odds of 8.00 for Woods to take the championship title.

If he does so, it will be first time after fifteen straight tournament losses since his last win in November, 2009.

Only four weeks later, Woods went into self-imposed exile when stories of his multiple affairs went public and he went through a very tabloid divorce from his wife.

In addition, Woods is now ranked fifth overall, behind players such as Martin Kaymer, Lee Westwood and Luke Donald.

Phil "Lefty" Mickelson is second favorite at betting sites, and although he hasn't been playing well recently, he still has the advantage of having won two Masters since Woods won his last one in 2005.

Odds on the Outright Winner of the US Masters 2011 at Bodog:

Tiger Woods - 8.00
Phil Mickelson - 9.00
Nick Watney - 15.00
Lee Westwood - 15.00
Martin Kaymer - 17.00
Dustin Johnson - 21.00
