Masters Field 2016: Odds, Favorites and Tournament Preview

Is it still a tradition unlike any other if Tiger Woods isn't playing in it?

The clock is ticking before golfers everywhere gather at the first tee at Augusta National for the 80th edition of the Masters on Thursday. The best golfers in the world will be looking to don the green jacket, but Woods will not be one of them due to his ailing back.

Despite his early-season struggles, reigning Masters champion Jordan Spieth is listed as one of three favorites on Odds Shark. Rory McIlroy and Jason Day are not far behind as men who could potentially dethrone the young star and win the green jacket.
