LONDON -- Tiger Woods has been installed as 11-8 favorite to win The Masters, starting at Augusta National on Thursday.

British bookmaker William Hill also quotes Woods at 12-1 to win all four majors this year, of which The Masters is the first. He already holds the U.S. Open, British Open and PGA Championship titles from last season.

Defending Masters champion Vijay Singh and Phil Mickelson are second favorites at 12-1.

Others with top odds are Davis Love III (14-1), Ernie Els (22-1), David Duval (28-1) and Jim Furyk (33-1).

The bookmaker holds out little hope of a European victory with Colin Montgomerie, Sergio Garcia, Jesper Parnevik at 40-1, and 1999 champion Jose Maria Olazabal at 50-1.
