• For those waiting until after round one to place a wager, it's worth noting that only one of the last 18 Masters' champions was outside the top-10 thru 18 holes;
• And 14 of these 18 winners were inside the top six;
• Only two of the 18 opened with a round worse than 70 and, since 2000, only one eventual winner has fired a first round that was over par;
• Since 2006, only one champion was more than four shots adrift after 18 holes.
