The British Open is considered one of the four majors in terms of professional golf tournaments along with the PGA championship, the Master's, and the U.S. Open. The 2019 incarnation will be played July 18th to the 21st at Royal Portrush golf course in Northern Ireland. Technically, Ireland is still part of the United Kingdom. This golf course is known for it's challenging fairways. There are lots of sand bunkers.
The sports book odds makers have come up with odds on who will win this golf event. Living legend Tiger Woods currently has the best odds at eight to one. This is logical given his recent strong play. Native son Rory McIlroy is listed at ten to one. McIlroy certainly knows European and Irish courses. Professional golfer Dustin Johnson is around 14 to one. Jordan Spieth is another potential contender.
Another factor to keep in mind is that the odds are fluid. The British Open is the last of the annual four professional golf major championships. Odds for individual players might increase or decrease depending on how well or poorly they play the at the U.S. Open, the PGA Championship, and the Master's.
You don't have to be a golf expert to pick who you think will win. Perhaps, you really like Tiger Woods. Consider placing a bet on Him or any golfer you think will win the 2019 British Open at your online sports book today.
