3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Rory McIlroy — the market puts it at 9%, with $3k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 25 Apr 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Rory McIlroy wins the Masters Tournament. It resolves to No if he does not win. Readers often mistake this for a prediction of his general performance rather than a specific requirement to win the tournament.
  • Will Jon Rahm win the 2026 Abu Dhabi Championship? — the market puts it at 36%, with $12k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 9 Nov 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Jon Rahm is the sole winner of the 2026 Abu Dhabi Championship, or if he wins a tie and his last name comes first alphabetically among the tied players. It resolves to No if Rahm is eliminated from contention based on official tournament rules or if another listed player wins.
  • Jon Rahm — the market puts it at 6%, with $63 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 8 Apr 2027. The outcome is Yes if Jon Rahm plays in a LIV Golf tournament between January 1 and March 31, 2027. The outcome is No if he does not play in such a tournament during that period. Readers often mistake the deadline, thinking any future departure from LIV Golf counts instead of only competing in Q1 2027.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
