British Open Golf Odds

The British Open, simply referred to as the Open, is the oldest, and in many people’s eyes, the greatest of the four Major championships. There are nine courses in Scotland and England that host the Open in a nine-year cycle, and all the courses are links courses providing the professionals with the truest test in golf. First played in 1860 at Prestwick Golf Club, the favourite Old Tom Morris was beaten by Willie Park Senior who was rewarded with the Champion’s Belt.
