It’s the eve of the Open Championship at Royal Birkdale in Southport, England and nothing much has changed about the latest odds to win the golf season’s final major championship.
Defending champion Scottie Scheffler is +750 on the moneyline by BetMGM with just hours to go before the first tee time at 1:35 a.m. (EDT). Scheffler, who enters the week leading the PGA Tour in earnings and the FedEx Cup standings, won last year at Royal Portrush, tees off at 4:58 a.m., playing with LIV Golf members Bryson DeChambeau and Tyrrell Hatton.
The next favorite is Rory McIlroy at +900, followed by Matt Fitzpatrick and Tommy Fleetwood, both at +1600. McIlroy is a past British Open champion, Fitzpatrick has a U.S. Open title to his name and Fleetwood is searching for his first major title.
