Adam Hadwin
Price: $6,900
Even in what will be the strongest field of the year, Hadwin feels like a bit of a steal at $6,900 with the way he's playing. Ranked fifth in the FedEx Cup standings, he has made the cut in each of his last 10 tournaments, he has six Top-25's, and in his last two starts, he won the Valspar and finished sixth at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
Moreover, his game bodes well for Augusta. He's strong with his irons (29th in strokes gained approaching the green) and even with better with his putter (sixth in strokes gained putting), he has the ability to go low (18th in birdie or better percentage) and he avoids the blowups that can be so costly at the Masters (second in bogey avoidance behind only Jordan Spieth).
Hadwin is likely to be pretty popular, but it's hard not to love his outlook. He has better odds than guys like Danny Willett ($7,800), Alex Noren ($7,500) and Branden Grace ($7,500), who are all priced well higher. (Getty)
