Rory McIlroy, of Northern Ireland, greets fans on the 18th hole during a practice round ahead of the Masters golf tournament at the Augusta National Golf Club, Wednesday, April 8, 2026, in Augusta, Ga. AP The Masters brings the golf season’s peak betting week and the BetMGM bonus code NYPDM1500 is perfect to stock up value via a 20 percent first-deposit match up to a maximum of $1,500.
Rory McIlroy, the reigning champion and latest Grand Slam winner, opened with much longer odds than last year at 13/1.
This is the first time since 1994 that both Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson are not competing in the tournament, so popular players such as McIlroy are bound to see increased public action.
By entering the BetMGM bonus code NYPDM1500 during sign-up, you will receive a 20 percent first deposit match worth up to $1,500 in sports bonus.
If I deposit $100, I get a $20 bonus in my account. I’d need to deposit $7,500 to get $1,500.

Rory McIlroy is set to make his 18th appearance at The Masters in 2026 following his historic victory in 2025, where he defeated Justin Rose in a playoff.
That win made him just the sixth player ever to complete the career Grand Slam, joining legends like Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods.
He also became the first European and only the second international player, alongside Player, to achieve this milestone.
