The Open

In the past 11 majors, there have been 11 different winners. Based on this and my gut feeling, this eliminates Rory and a lot of others. Taking this into consideration, lets get into the picks.

Im rather upset that I'm getting shitty odds on a few of these guys (Laird & Cabrera), but I'd rather take the risk of knowing that my book will pay, rather than having my funds appropriated to the US govt. Anyways, here are the picks.

Martin Laird 125:1 (saw other people got him at 200. I think this course sets up good for his long ball game) .2 units

Angel Cabrera- 70:1 (saw him at 90+) Had him on the US Open and I like him here as well. The cool handed Argentinian smokes em when he has em. I know that he can handle the pressure and won't buckle .3 units

Furyk- 90:1 Of all the people I've got, I believe this one has by far the most value. Yes, Furyk has not had the best year so far and has had past trouble in the open, although he has two top 5's in the past 5 years, I think this is incredible value. Nobody is talking about him. .25 units

Mick- 35:1 Okay, so this is the only bet that is coming straight from my heart, but I do believe there is some value in this one. Yes, Mick has his troubles at the Open, but you never know with Mick. He either contends or misses the cut. At 35:1, I'll take my chances on a small bet.

These are my 4 picks and I'll be back Wednesday night with Thursday matchup plays. Good luck to all and comments are appr... [More]
