In complicated times in the LIV, world golf returns to its origin, to one of its most legendary courses throughout the history of this beautiful sport, Saint Andrews, in Scotland, to celebrate what will be the 150th edition of the British Open, also known as the Open Championship, where Collin Morikawa will seek to defend the title of champion, Scottie Scheffler being his main rival arriving as leader of the world ranking and where the Spanish and former #1 in the world, Jon Rahm, starts as a contender for the title.
World golf will live this week in the dispute of the British Open 2022, which is the last Grand Slam of the year and one of the most prized on the circuit.
The Open is the most prestigious and oldest golf tournament in the world. It is, therefore, the event par excellence of this sport, the one that all players want to win, and, in addition, there is the additional ingredient that they are on their 150th anniversary, so it will be a spectacular tournament.
The British Open 2022 will be played today, Thursday 14 July 2022 and will last until Sunday 17, at the Old Course of St. Andrews, known as the cradle of golf, after beginning its idyll with the Open in 1873.
British Open 2022 – Golf – Info
When: July 14 – 17, 2022.
Where? St. Andrews, Scotland
Collin Morikawa, who has dropped from fourth to eighth in the world ranking, will defend the title he won as a rookie last year at Royal St. George’s Golf Club, in Kent. He will start the defense with Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy (won in 2014) and American Xander Schauffele, a brand-new winner of the Scottish Open, as playing partners.
Rory McIlroy, a strong ambassador for the PGA Tour and a critic of the other athletes who left for the controversial league, is the favorite for the 2022 Open Championship in what will be a historic final. Rory McIlroy is the +1000 favorite at the latest odds.
Xander Schauffele, who has won the last two tournaments he has played in, including the Scottish Open, contested last week, is the second choice at +1400. Jordan Spieth (+1500), Scottie Scheffler (+1600), and Jon Rahm (+1600), followed by Justin Thomas (+1800) and Matt Fitzpatrick (+1800).
Another bet we could make is on the veteran and historic Tiger Woods, who returns to the professional fields after several years of absence. Woods is a remote possibility with a betting (odds) of +6000, but the experience could be decisive in this type of complicated tournament.
Now, next, we will show the TOP 15 in this British Open 2022 and their respective betting odds.
- Rory McIlroy +1000
