Vegas Sportsbooks Suffer “Biggest Loss EVER” After Tiger Woods Wins Masters (TWEETS)

It was a great day for Tiger Woods and the golfing world…

And a horrible day for Las Vegas and sportsbooks everywhere.

While Tiger was slipping on the green jacket and celebrating his fifth career title at The Masters earlier today, sportsbooks around the world were busy counting their losses, with some of them reportedly suffering their biggest loss ever.

MANY sportsbooks suffered their biggest golf betting loss EVER with Tiger's victory today.

Among those getting hit hard by Tiger’s win was popular sportsbook William Hill, who had to pay out over $1-million to a bettor who wagered $85,000 on Woods to win the tournament before The Masters began on Thursday.

“It’s great to see Tiger back. It’s a painful day for William Hill – our biggest golf loss ever – but a great day for golf.”

– Nick Bogdanovich, William Hill US Director of Trading

Tough loss, although I can’t quite say I feel sorry for any of these sportsbooks…because I don’t.

Chalk this weekend up as one for the good guys.
