Here are my outside tips for the 2012 Open Golf Championship at Royal Lytham. This links course starts with a Par 3 which is rare for a golf major and the reports are that the rough is brutal so keeping it straight off the tee is a big advantage.
The favourite for the 2012 Open is Tiger Woods at 10-1 best price with Ladbrokes. The odds on Tiger to win the open at 10-1 are a far cry from the 4-1 odds you would get in his prime so it is tempting.
Rory McIlroy has drifted to 25-1 with Betfred and Ladbrokes which reflects his dislike of playing in wind and rain.
Surely Westwood at 16-1 and Donald at 20-1 with Bet Victor must have a chance of their first major ?
The best outside bets for the 2012 open are to be found placing each way bets for first 6 places at most bookies. Here are a few tips.
G McDowell 33-1 with Paddy Power paying 7 places each way
F Molinari 40-1 with Paddy Power paying 7 places each way
Louis Oosthuizen 50-1 with Ladbrokes 6 places each way
Cabrera Bello 125-1 with Paddy Power paying 7 places each way
Raphael Jacquelin 150-1 with Ladbrokes
