Amongst the many sports which have become quite popular, there is in the sport which is not all about raw strength and bulwark.
It is more about skills, staying power, patience, and perseverance. Yes, we are talking about golf which today is as closely followed as other big games like tennis, baseball, basketball, and tennis.
It has millions of fans across the world, and as we read this article, it is quite possible that there will be some international golf games taking place in some corner of the world.
There are a few countries like the USA, almost the entire European Union, Australia, China, Hong Kong, Dubai and other such places where one can get to see the some of the best matches being played.
However, in this article, we will try and have a look at the US Open golf and try to find out about some players who could be movers and shakers.
The US Open Golf
There is no denying the fact that as far as quality golf is concerned, the US golf is considered to the best in more ways than one. This is because it is an extremely old tournament which has stood the test of time for many decades now.
The prize money is also quite decent, and it has seen some of the legends participating, and Tiger Woods is one such golfing legend. However, much water has followed down ever since Tiger Woods got broiled into a number of personal problems.
Today, however, many new players have replaced the likes of Tiger Woods. Hence if you are one of those who is keen on learning more about the odds for the US Open golf, it is important to have a look at the odds of some important players.
Day Jason
There is no doubt, that talk of modern day golfing cannot go further without mention being of Day Jason. This Australian today is the best in terms of world ranking, and as far as 2016 is concerned, there is no doubt that it has been fantastic and exhilarating, to say the least.
He certainly has set the stage on fire with some stunning performances, to say the least. Hence as far as the US Open is concerned, he has a very healthy off 8/1 in his favor.
Rory McIlroy
He is from Northern Ireland, and he continues to hold one of the topmost positions as far as the year 2016 is concerned. Hence, it would not be a bad idea to learn more about the reasons why he continues to have a healthy.
It would be pertinent to mention that he was in number position for 95 weeks and being 27 years of age he has a lot of golf left ahead of him. Hence, as far as the year 2017 is concerned, he still has the same 8/1 odd in his favor which is the same as that of Day Jason
Johnson Dustin
Americans have many reasons to cheer because of the presence of Johnson Dustin. Aged 32 years, this American golfer is extremely popular as far as the PGA tournaments are concerned.
Amongst the many famous wins, his win in the 2016 US Open at Oakmont Country Club is something which is one of the best achievements in his highly successful career.
Though he may not have won too many matches, many believe that this win alone is enough to warrant 8/1 odds in his favor.
However, it is likely that he could be a dark horse and playing in his home turf would certainly be a great advantage.
Spieth Jordan
One of the youngest players in the US Open circuit it would be wrong to write him off because of his age. He weighs 84 kgs and has a reasonably good height of 1.85 meters.
He has a number of wins to his credit within this short career. The most notable are perhaps his ability to win the 2015 FedEx Cup not once but twice.
This happened in 2015, and his achievements in 2016 perhaps are not very exciting as they were in the previous years.
However, given his age and his ability to fight against odds and come out with flying colors, there is no doubt that he will be able to justify his odd of 9/1.
Hideki Matsuyama
He is just 24 years old, and it would be pertinent to mention here that he has been able to make his presence felt very strongly in Asia.
He has won the Asian Amateur Championship in the years 2010 and 2011. He also is a winner of the PGT tour and has done it three times.
Further, he has the distinction of winning the Japan Golf Tour Winner eight times. Therefore, he certainly has much to offer as far as US Open for 2017 is concerned.
Therefore, there are many reasons as to why his 16/1 could be a bit of injustice to him. However, this might perhaps be because US circuits are totally different from Asian and Japanese circuits.
Justin Rose
He is an English professional golfer, and at 36 he might not be in the same league as that of Spieth Jordan and other young players.
However, he has experience in playing many PGA tours while keeping his European Tour membership.
Though he does not have much of a record to show as far as his wins are concerned, it would be wrong to disregard his form and his ability to win over the best of players. He, however, has a not so impressive odd of 25/1.
Adam Scott
Finally, we will have a closer look at Adam Scott as far as odds on the US Open Golf. He is around 36 years old, and he was a top-ranked golfer for a short period of 2014.
He has an impressive record of 29 professional tournament wins across the world and that too in some of the most impressive and famous tournaments across the world. He has an odd of 25/1 which may not be the right way to judge his form.
