Three Events You Need To Watch This Week
Scott Morris | April 9, 2014
No more March Madness? No problem! There is still plenty to look forward to this week and these are three options that will be hot in your sportsbook.
The Masters – Thursday, tee times TBA
The first major of the golf season is the most important to many players, and Thursday’s tee-off at Augusta National will kick off the 78th Masters. Australia’s Adam Scott is the defending champion in a loaded field featuring a slew of former champions, and by the time we get to the back nine on Sunday, there will likely be a few players battling for the Green Jacket.

The Champions League – Tuesday and Wednesday, 2:45 PM ET
Eight teams will be cut to four in Europe’s biggest club tournament and we start with Chelsea hosting Paris Saint-Germain, who will be without injured star Zlatan Ibrahimovich, who hurt his hamstring in the first leg, which was won 3-1 by PSG. Also on Tuesday, Real Madrid will look to put the finishing touches on their tie when they head to Borussia Dortmund with a 3-0 lead. Wednesday’s games feature two ties that finished at 1-1 in the first leg as Manchester United heads to Bayern Munich, while Spanish powers Barcelona and Atletico Madrid square off in Madrid.

Manny Pacquiao Vs. Timothy Bradley – Saturday, 10:00 PM ET
Bradley got a gift in a win over Pacquiao in their first meeting in 2012, but he has two solid wins since as he looks to defend the WBO welterweight title against Pacquiao, who put a beating on Brandon Rios in his last fight. The decision in the first fight was so bad that an independent panel had to watch the fight again and a rematch was ordered. The two will meet once again at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
