Rickie Fowler – Impressive performance at Merion last month culminated in a Top
10 finish and highlighted that the 24-year-old has the temperament to handle
the toughest of challenges. Fowler has also had success at The Open before with
a 5th place finish in 2011 at Royal St George’s showing that he has
the game for links golf. A good putting week should see him in the mix on
Sunday, so at 50/1 looks a solid bet.
Richard Sterne – Currently 4th in the Race to Dubai standings on the
European Tour, having already won this season at the Joburg Open. The South
African pushed Graeme McDowell all the way at the Open De France earlier this
month suggesting that another win is not too far away. Top 25 finishes in 9 of
his 12 events on tour this season shows that, at 90/1, he looks very good value
for an each way bet.
Ernie Els –
The defending champion and also the man that last won The Open at Muirfield in 2002. Those two experiences should see Els in
contention once more. The South African has a staggering 13 Top 10 finishes in this
tournament which makes him one of the most consistent players in Open history.
Despite a missed cut in Scotland last week, the four-time major champion has
been in impressive form with a win at the BMW International Open as well as
finishing in a tie for 4th at the US Open. Don’t be surprised to see
him defend his title this week. Great bet at 25/1.
