2009 US Open Morning Line
There are only three certainties in life: death, taxes and that Tiger Woods will be the favorite in any of the golf “majors.”
The only question is how big of a favorite he will be. The 2009 US Open odds have Woods a 3-2 favorite at most sportsbooks.
Phil Mickelson, widely considered the second best golfer in the world, is 10-1. Mickelson will face the burden of playing as his wife fights a courageous battle against cancer.
It’s safe to say that all other contenders will be considered a long shot. Geoff Ogilvy is 16-1, Jim Furyk at 20-1, and Paul Casey at 22-1.
For those who want to hedge their online bets, one can wager on whether or not each entrant will finish in the Top 5. Woods is costly at 2-7.
At the other sports wagering extreme, Tiger Woods pays 12-1 if he does not make the cut.
Who will be the top European player? Paul Casey checks in at 5-1, Rory McIlroy 7-1 and Sergio Garcia 8-1.
There are odds posted on the Top British and Irish finisher, ditto for Australian, or South African players.
Other options are on how many majors Tiger Woods will win in 2009. In fact, online gamblers only need to wager 2-1 on Woods winning at least one Major.
