Before the Masters last month The Action Network’s Darren Rovell reported that some insane dude bet $85,000 on 14-1 odds that Tiger Woods was going to win the tournament.
JUST IN: A William Hill sportsbook in Nevada just took an $85,000 wager on Tiger to win the Masters. At 14-1, pays out $1.19 million if he puts on another green jacket on Sunday.

Tiger went on to win the Masters and made James Adducci a lot of money in the process.

Today, Tiger was asked what he thought about Adducci’s Masters’ bet while he was getting in some practice drives at Pebble Beach ahead of the U.S. Open and he had a great answer.
“Fucking great bet”.

Tiger did go on to call Adducci a “dumbass” for placing 100-1 bet on him to win the grand slam.
James Adducci, the bettor who won $1.19 million off an $85,000 bet on Tiger Woods to win the Masters is back at it.
He placed a $100,000 bet at 100-1 odds this afternoon on Tiger to win the Grand Slam this year at William Hill's SLS sportsbook.
The bet would win $10 million.
