As expected, the 21-year-old Texan, Jordan Speith (Odds: 6 to 1), is listed as the current favorite to win the 2015 Open Championship.   Jordan continues his quest for the holy grail of legendary golf: The true Grand Slam.  Speith was offered to the public at approximately 12 to 1 for the 2015 masters & 8 to 1 for the U.S. Open.  Turns out, these were tremendous values.  At most books his odds for the British jumped after Rory McIlroy’s withdraw due to an ruptured left ankle.  You can still get Jordan currently at 6 to 1 at 5 Dimes Sportsbook.  

Free British Open Picks (Sleeper & Value Plays)
Jimmy Walker: (85 to 1 at Five Dimes)
Rickie Fowler (30 to 1 at JustBet Sportsbook)
Sergio Garcia (36 to 1 at  Five Dimes)
Graham DeLaet (385 to 1 at Five Dimes)
J.B. Holmes (95 to 1 at Five Dimes)

Other notables and their odds for the 2015 British Open include:

• Bubba Watson (36 to 1) – Bubba didn’t fair so well in the U.S. Open, but it appeared Chambers Bay wasn’t best suited for his game, as next week he went on to win the Travelers Championship at TPC River Highlands.
• J.B. Holmes (95 – 1) – We love J.B. this weekend and see 80 to 1 as a bargain.  He’s now ranked 13th in the world.  He now has 5 Top Ten finishes along with a win (at the Shell Houston Open) and two 2nd place finishes in his 24 events played.  The fact that he has played in almost every tournament this year (and made the cut in almost all of them) tells us something.  It shows that this big smasher of the golf ball is in great shape and ready for the trip across the pond.  If J.B. is going to win a major, this is the year he is going to do it.  95 to 1 is a super bargain with Holmes.
• Rickie Fowler (25 to 1) – Nobody is more due to win a major than Rickie in our opinion.  He quietly finished second in 3 of 4 majors last year including a 2nd place finish at the British.  We like him to have a strong showing at St. Andrews.
• Tiger Woods (30 to 1) – This is obviously a sell at 30 to 1 (at least it should be obvious).  He has not been able to put together a very strong weekend yet this year.  If you’re a Tiger fan, 30 to 1 odds may be temping, but you’d be betting with your heart instead of your brain.
• Phil Mickelson (38 to 1) – It seems everyone is a Phil fan and every tournament is always more exciting when the big lefty is in the hunt.  However, believe it or not, Phil hasn’t won a tournament since 2013.  If you are looking for value, it’s probably best to pass on Phil Mickelson unless you can get more than 50 to 1 odds.

Complete List of The Updated 2015 Masters Odds Can Be Found Below

Q: When is the 2015 Masters?
A: Thursday, 4/9 to 4/12/2015

Q: Which TV network can I watch the event & what time will the 2015 Masters TV Coverage Air?
A: As usual, you can watch the masters on ESPN on Thursday and Friday.  Then, the coverage will switch to CBS on Saturday & Sunday.  DirectTV also has special dedicated channels (also available in a 4-screen split) for the Masters. This includes; Featured Group, Amen Corner, Network Coverage, and more.

Q: Who Was Last Year’s Masters Champion and What is his Current Odds?
Q: Who was Last Year’s Masters Runner Up
A: Bubba Watson (2015 Masters odds: 12-1) won the Masters in 2015 as one of the favorites.  Jordan Speith (2015 Masters Odds: 10-1) went into Sunday with the lead and was outplayed by Watson.   

Q: Where will the 2015 Masters be held?
A: The Masters is always (every year) at Augusta National in Augusta, Georgia

Q: Who is Biggest Odds on Favorite to Win the 2014 Masters?
A. Most books have either the following three at the top and have this order (as of 4/1):

1. Rory McIlroy (6 to 1 at JustBet)
2. Joran Speith (10 to 1 at JustBet)
3. Bubba Watson (11 to 1 at 5 Dimes)

Q: Where can I see the rest of the 2015 Masters odds and lists of odds from reliable sportsbooks?
A: Full list of odds for the 2014 Masters can be found at the bottom of this post, courtesy of JustBet; also find odds from 5 Dimes below. We’ll also update the lists below with the latest prices as often as possible. We’ll also try to add individual 2014 Masters Prop Bets as well as heads-up lines.

Q: What are some exciting storylines to watch in this year’s Masters?
A: The biggest story is of course, the return of the great Tiger Woods.  After taking some time off, Woods will return to golf and test his game in the biggest tournament of them all.  Tiger Woods’ current odds to win the 2015 Masters is 38 to 1 (at 5 Dimes).  This seems to be on the high end (better payout than other books).  Most books will offer him at around 25 to 1.

Another great story is Jordan Speith.  He has been red hot and everyone is waiting for the young tour star to win his first major. He was in contention last week and lost in a playoff to J.B. Holmes. Speith also won the Velspar Championship just two weeks ago. You can get Jordan Speith at around 10 to 1 (at JustBet). You’ll find a nice payout for J.B. Holmes as 5 Dimes is offering 50 to 1 odds for last week’s Houston Open Winner.

All the stories of the day will take the early spotlight off the world’s number one player, Rory McIlroy. The current odds to win the Masters for Rory McIlroy is roughly 5 to 1 at most books.

The fourth grand slam tournament of the 2014 PGA Tour takes place at Valhalla Country Club in Louisville, Kentucky for the 96th annual PGA Championship. Jason Dufner (PGA Championship Golf Betting Lines: 125 to 1  at 5 Dimes) will be looking to defend his 2013 championship. Dufner has had a decent year with 4 top 10 finishes this year, but has yet to grab a win and has been less consistent than most tour stars with odds lower than 50 to 1.  In the 3 major tournaments, Dufner made the cut in only one, in which he finished 51st in the British Open last month. Dufner’s average line amongst the books is around 35 to 1.  While this number may attract some golf fans, this line is not tempting in the least to any sharp futures player.

We really liked California native Rickie Fowler (PGA Championship Golf Betting Lines: 22 to 1  at 5 Dimes) in last month’s Open Championship, and he did not disappoint with an impressive 2nd place finish. Fowler has recently altered his swing for more control and is playing as well as anyone in major tournaments (this side of Rory McIlroy).  We still think Rickie has tremendous value once again at 25 to 1, with consecutive runner-up finishes in the last two major tournaments. Fowler also had a 5th place finish at the Masters.  His 3 top 5 finishes in each major tournament this season can’t be ignored. If you like him at 25 to 1, don’t hesitate to pull the trigger.

List Of Past The PGA Championship Winners (Since 2000)
2013 – Jason Dufner
2012 – Rory McIlroy
2011 – Keegan Bradley
2010 – Martin Kaymer
2009 – YE Yang
2008 – Padraig Harrington
2007 – Tiger Woods
2006 – Tiger Woods
2005 – Phil Mickelson
2004 – Vijay Singh
2003 – Shaun Micheel
2002 – Rich Beem
2001 – David Toms
2000 – Tiger Woods

It should come as no surprise that this year’s British Open winner Rory McIlory is the favorite (at 7 to 1 @ Bovada to win this year’s PGA Championship). McIlroy dominated last month’s Open Championship, jumping out to a lead and never looking back with a wire to wire win. McIlroy has had seven top 10 finishes this season, and is more likely than anyone to be in the mix to win in Valhalla.

Angel Cabrera (PGA Championship Golf Betting Lines: 80 to 1 at 5 Dimes) is a longshot, but offers some value.  We love Angel Cabrera’s controlled power.  He won the Greenbrier Classic in early July, edging the 2nd place finisher by 2 strokes. It was Cabrera’s first win since claiming the green jacket in 2009. Cabrera has two major wins under his belt, and definitely has the experience to make a run in the PGA championship. At these odds, Cabrera is worth a shot as he always seems to make some noise in majors when its least expected.

The last time the PGA championship made its way to Valhalla, it was back in 2000. The winner of that tournament was none other than Tiger Woods (PGA Championship Golf Betting Lines: 66 to 1 at 5 Dimes). Woods didn’t have the most impressive showing at last month’s Open Championship, but he was encouraged by the way he was hitting the ball and was still recovering from an injury.  He hit more fairways than most of the field at the British Open, including Rory McIlroy.  Woods’ progress should be monitored in this weekend’s WGC-Bridgestone invitational. At 10 to 1, and with Woods trying to make his way back from injury, these odds don’t offer a lot of value. But, with a strong opening round, 10 to 1 will look like a bargain.

2014 British Open – Current Odds To Win, Free Sleeper Picks & Tournament Info
2014 Open Championship Dates: Thursday, July 17^th thru Sunday, July 20^th
2014 British Open Location: Royal Liverpool Golf Club, Merseyside, England
Current Favorite To Win the 2014 British Open: Rory McIlroy (Odds: 12 to 1)
Defending British Open Champion (2013 Champ): Phil Mickelson (17 to 1)
Free Sleeper Picks: Kevin Na (150/1 at 5Dimes) & Rickie Fowler (50/1 at 5Dimes)
2014 British Open Golf Live TV Coverage: ESPN / ABC (& DirectTV Mosaic)

The third grand slam tournament of the 2014 PGA Tour takes place at Royal Liverpool Golf Club in Merseyside, England for the 154th annual British Open. Phil Mickelson (Current Odds: 17 to 1 @ 5 Dimes). will be looking to defend his 2013 championship, and will need his best effort of the year by far to be in contention. Mickelson, currently ranked 91st in the world, has had a disappointing season by his standards, with no top 10 finishes and an average score of 71 per round. Perhaps the rumors of possible insider trading has somewhat distracted him, and who knows how much that will affect his game in the upcoming months.

This year’s Open Championship may have a different sort of buzz compared to the previous major tournaments this year, and that is due to the return of Tiger Woods (Odds: 17 to 1 @ 5 Dimes). It should come as no surprise that Woods is the favorite, however with his return from injury and past performances this year, one would have to question if he is a serious contender. Woods missed the cut in his return from injury at the Quicken Loans national, and his progress leading up to the British Open should be monitored. His recent struggles shouldn’t matter as the betting public will more than likely have a lot of action on Tiger to be in the mix. It should also be pointed out that the last time Woods won the Open Championship; it was at none other than Royal Liverpool.

British Open Winners (Since 2000)
2013 – Phil Mickelson
2012 – Ernie Els
2011 – Darren Clarke
2010 – Louis Oosthuizen
2009 – Stewart Cink
2008 – Padraig Harrington
2007 – Padraig Harrington
2006 – Tiger Woods
2005 – Tiger Woods
2004 – Todd Hamilton
2003 – Ben Curtis
2002 – Ernie Els
2001 – David Duval
2000 – Tiger Woods

It should come as no surprise that US Open winner Martin Kaymer is listed at only 16 to 1 (at 5Dimes) to win this year’s Open Championship. The 29 year-old German dominated the field at Pinehurst, winning the tournament by an astounding 8 strokes. In 12 tournament appearances, Kaymer has 2 wins and 3 top 10 finishes in 2014. If Kaymer can come anywhere close to duplicating his US Open performance, he will most certainly be a serious contender.

If there is anyone in the field that is due for a major, it’s Sergio Garcia (Best Odds: 25 to 1 at Bovada). Garcia is currently ranked 9th in the world, and despite poor showings in the previous 2 majors, he has 10 top 10 finishes this year, including a 3rd place finish at the Players championship at TPC Sawgrass, and a 2nd place finish at the Travelers Championship. Garcia has been competitive in previous Open championships with 4 top 10 finishes, including placing 2nd in 2007 (Carnoustie) and 5th in 2006 (Royal Liverpool).

California native Rickie Fowler (Best Odds: 50 to 1 at Bovada) is showing some value after a 2nd place finish in the US Open. Fowler has yet to win a major but has shown signs this year that he might be ready to take the next step. Among his 4 top 10 finishes this year was finishing 6 strokes back and placing 5th at the Masters. Fowler did miss the cut in last year’s British Open championship, and will most certainly be determined to put forth a better showing.

2014 Golf US Open Odds, Picks & Info
2014 U.S. Open Scheduled Dates: June 12-15, 2014
2014 US Open Location: Pinehurst No. 2 in Pinehurst, NC
Odds On Favorite To Win The US Open: Rory McIlory (12 to 1)
Defending US Open Champion (2013 Winner): Justin Rose
2014 US Open TV Coverage – Network: ESPN & NBC

The 2014 US open takes place at Pinehurst Resort in Pinehurst, NC on the second weekend in June. Justin Rose (US Open Golf Betting Lines: 22 to 1 at BetOnline) will be defending his crown, and thus far this year Rose has been decent with five top 10 finishes. Rose won the 2013 US Open in Marion with a consistent effort through all 4 rounds to beat Aussie Jason Day and American Phil Mickelson by 2 strokes finishing at +1 for the tournament.

Rory McIlroy (Current US Open Odds: 12 to 1 at BetOnline) is the favorite in this year’s open. McIlroy will be looking to duplicate his efforts that won him the 2011 Open Championship. He has had a top 10 finish at the Masters, finishing 8th, and currently has six top 10 finishes this year and just missed a win at the Honda Classic losing on a one hole playoff. Given his current form, McIlroy is poised for a great tournament and is due for a major win.

List Of Past US Open Golf Winners (Since 2000)

2013 US Open Winner – Justin Rose
2012 US Open Winner – Webb Simpson
2011 US Open Winner – Rory McIlroy
2010 US Open Winner – Graeme McDowell
2009 US Open Winner – Lucas Glover
2008 US Open Winner – Tiger Woods
2007 US Open Winner – Angel Cabrera
2006 US Open Winner – Geoff Ogilvy
2005 US Open Winner – Michael Campbell
2004 US Open Winner – Retief Goosen
2003 US Open Winner – Jim Furyk
2002 US Open Winner – Tiger Woods
2001 US Open Winner – Retief Goosen
2000 US Open Winner – Tiger Woods

After the Masters this season, many were talking about Bubba Watson’s second win at Augusta. However, the real story was the performance of the young American sensation Jordan Spieth (US Open Golf Betting Lines: 22 to 1 at BetOnline). Spieth had a second place finish at Augusta National, and a month later followed that performance up with a 4th place finish at The Players championship at TPC Sawgrass. This season, Spieth has 6 top 10 finishes, and is certainly proving that his performance at the Masters was no fluke. The 20-year-old definitely has the talent and poise to win a major, and could definitely be among the serious contenders at Pinehurst this year.

Speaking of the Masters, Bubba Watson (US Open Golf Betting Lines: 28 to 1 at BetOnline) is definitely playing at a high level this season, with two wins and six top 10 finishes this season. Watson was inactive for a month after his Masters victory, and his next tournament was a disappointing 48th place finish at TPC Sawgrass. Watson’s form should be monitored in the week leading up to Pinehurst, but he could very well be in the mix. Watson’s best performance in the US Open was in 2007 when he tied for 5th.

A: The first major golf tournament of the 2014 Season is here and there may be a lot more things to watch than there usually are for a major championship. All of these stories to follow make the 2014 Masters more watchable than this year’s final four. Not only that, these stories make it a very interesting major tournament in the Vegas sportsbook circle.

Here are just a few question and players to watch that are looming over August National. Come April 10th, all of these questions will all be answered;

• Can the current #2 player in the world and defending Masters Champ, Adam Scott (10 to 1 at WagerWeb) repeat after an impressive win in last year’s Masters and an amazing career changing season in 2013?
• Will the injured Tiger Woods (9 to 1 at 5 Dimes) at even play in this 2014 Masters? If so, you may actually be able to get some value in him right now. Something tells me he’ll endure some serious pain to win another Masters title & avoid losing his world #1 ranking
• Can Rory McIlroy (7 to 1 at WagerWeb) put his 2011 collapse at August behind him and finally get a Green Jacket? Will Tiger Woods even compete?
• Is this the year that the ball-smashing Dustin Johnson (18 to 1 @ 5 Dimes) finally puts a major win together. Is this the year Johnson carries his hotsreak into a major championship . Johnson has been one of the best players on the tour as of recent. He is finally starting to show us what the golf experts were raving about when his career started.

Q: Who are the players that you may have some good value on the board?
A: Here just a few I think are solid:

• Bubba Watson at 20 to 1 (at  Wagerweb):
  2012 Masters champion Bubba Watson may have some real some value at 20/1. In 2013 Watson had his struggles, and managed only 3 top 10 finishes, and was never a factor in any major. 2014 has been a different story though. He did withdraw from last weekend’s Arnold Palmer Invitational, but before that had managed three top 3 finishes, and shot a -15 to capture the Northern Trust Open at Riviera Country Club. Watson looks to be even better than his 2012 form and could definitely make a run in the tournament.
• Adam Scott at 10 to 1 (at Wagerweb):
  Defending champion Adam Scott is currently listed at 10/1 to win, where a win would put an end Tiger Wood’s ridiculously long run as the #1 player in the wold. He is very likely to be in the running for the green jacket and the World Golf Rankings give him so extra incentive. Thus far in 2014, Scott has had three top 3 finishes. He finished 3rd at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, after a disappointing 25th place finish at Cadillac championship at Doral. For the most part throughout the past 3 years, the 33 year old Australian has averaged 6 top 10 finishes, with a total of 7 of them being in majors. More often than not, Scott’s name will be mentioned as a definite factor.
• Patrick Reed at 55 to 1 (at 5Dimes):
  23 year old San Antonio native, Patrick Reed has a very good price tag at 45 to 1. 2013 was a pretty solid year 5 top 10 finishes, but his 2014 has been a lot more successful thus far. The Augusta State graduate currently has 2 PGA tour wins under his belt this year, winning the Humana Challenge and the Cadillac championship at Doral. One would have to think that he’d like to get his win in a major at the place of where he went to school
• Webb Simpson at 95 to 1: (at 5 Dimes):
  Finally, we’ll put Webb Simpson at 95/1 under consideration for a smaller play with big reward. Simpson won the 2012 US Open at the Olympic Club. Since that victory Simpson has 7 top 10 finishes, and in 2014 Simpson won the Shriners open winning by 6 strokes and dominating the field with a -24. Simpson has had only 1 appearance at Augusta, finishing 44th with a +6. Simpson certainly isn’t a favorite, but at these odds, Simpson is certainly capable of putting a fantastic weekend together.

The 2013 PGA Championship odds are going to be challenged at the East Course of the Oak Hill Country Club starting on August 8th, as some of the best PGA expert handicappers try to beat the golf odds for this event. Join us as all of the best golfers on the planet try to claim the fourth and final major tournament title of the year in golf betting action!

Over the course of the last several years, the man that we have been waiting to bust out and become a force in the sport of golf has been Rory McIlroy (Defending PGA Championship Champion, PGA Championship Odds: 25 to 1 SportBet Sportsbook). McIlroy, to his credit, did win the PGA Championship last season, but this year has been the nightmare of all nightmares. He didn’t make the cut in his first tournament of the year at the Honda Classic, and he didn’t make the cut in the Open Championship just a few weeks ago as well. Even last week at the Bridgestone Invitational, the Northern Ireland native only managed to finish at +2, and he only had one round below par on Saturday. McIlroy hasn’t been a serious contender in an event on a Sunday since the Players Championship when he finished eighth, and he only has one Top 5 finish this year at the Valero Texas Open, a tournament which, under normal circumstances, he probably wouldn’t have played. We can’t really recommend playing McIlroy at this point, though we know that many will.

Most of the bets in the PGA Championship though, are going to come in on Tiger Woods (PGA Championship Betting Odds: 3.75 to 1 @ SportBet Sportsbook). Woods is still waiting for that elusive major title, one which has gotten away from him for a half of a decade at this point. Woods did win the PGA in 2000, 2006, and 2007, so he definitely knows what he is doing at this event. That said, this is a really cheap price for a man that hasn’t won a major in quite somet ime. Tiger though, won last week at the Bridgestone Invitational going away, and he has to be poised and ready to go for this one. He was in the second to last group at the Open Championship a few weeks back, and though he didn’t win and sort of shriveled a bit on Sunday, he was still right in the thick of the fight and would have been right there had Phil Mickelson not gone on his outrageous tear on Sunday to win the event. There is going to be a point that Tiger tames the world and wins that major tournament he has craved, and this very well could be the week that happens.

List Of Past The PGA Championship Winners (Since 2000)
2012 – Rory McIlroy
2011 – Keegan Bradley
2010 – Martin Kaymer
2009 – YE Yang
2008 – Padraig Harrington

2002 – Rich Beem
2001 – David Toms
2000 – Tiger Woods

Lee Westwood (Odds to Win PGA Championship: 30 to 1 @ SportBet Sportsbook) has never won a major tournament in his career, and he hasn’t won a single event this year on the PGA Tour calendar, but he has done a remarkable job in these majors and is certainly due. In all three of the major tournaments this year, Westwood has finished tied for 15th or better, something that hardly anyone in the world can boast. Alas, Westwood is a bit scary right now after he finished 40th at the Bridgestone Invitational last week, but in typical Westy fashion, but he finished with very consistent rounds, shooting 71, 71, 71, 72 in his four days. The truth of the matter is if he is able to keep his score right in line with the rest of the pack early in this tournament, don’t be shocked if Westwood is right there come Sunday again. This is a man that just doesn’t beat himself up on the links, and though he rarely puts together that flashy round of 63, he is a consistent golfer who is always in the thick of the fight as well.

With one major under his belt already this year, Phil Mickelson (Odds to Win The PGA Championship: 13.50 to 1 @ SportBet Sportsbook) is going to have a shot to complete the career Grand Slam in this one. It’s really hard to ignore the man they call Lefty. He won the Open Championship in Scotland, he finished second at the US Open at Medinah, and though he stunk it up at the Masters, there is no taking away what he has been able to do elsewhere this year as well. Mickelson won the Waste Management Phoenix Open by shooting -28, he finished tied for third at the Cadillac Championship, he was third at the Wells Fargo Championship and then finished tied for second at the FedEx St. Jude Classic. A 21st place finish at last week’s Bridgestone Invitational wasn’t a bad outing either considering how difficult the course was. Could Mickelson find a way to capture this crown and finish that coveted career Grand Slam? We aren’t going to count Mickelson out, especially after that huge run he went on at the end of at the British Open just a few weeks ago when virtually everyone counted him out of the running.
