Tiger Woods Currently Has Best Odds To Win

The 2013 British Open gets underway this weekend at Muirfield in the United Kingdom.

There are many stories that will play out this weekend, but one of the biggest is the health of the world's #1 golfer, Tiger Woods. Tiger, who is battling a left elbow injury that impacted his performance at the US Open, has said that he is good to go. Tiger has surged in the past year but is still looking for his first major championship since his personal life blew up a few years ago.

The field is loaded with great players, all of whom will be looking to take down the British Open this weekend.

As you can probably expect, Tiger Woods is the current favourite to win, as he is currently listed at 10.00 to win. This means that a successful £100 bet on Tiger would return you a total profit of £900.

Here are some of the other odds that might be of interest:

Phil Mickelson, 19.00
Justin Rose, 19.00
Adam Scott, 21.00
Graeme McDowell, 26.00
Rory McIlroy, 29.00
Ernie Els, 29.00
Sergio Garcia, 29.00
Jason Day, 34.00
Charl Schwartzel, 36.00
