Live betting on The Open 2015 was available at Sportsbook.ag, where one can actually place wagers on the tournament while it is in progress.
A visit to the 463-year-old St. Andrews course will bring about the third major championship of the year as the players look to put their best foot forward at the Open Championship. This is the oldest of the four majors, visiting some of Europe’s most famed and historic courses since 1860 (155 years) and will be played at the Old Course once again for the first time since 2010. It is also among the most wagered on events in the UK and has become quite popular among gamblers and Fantasy Sports players alike.
Day One began at 3 am EST and will continue until around 3 pm EST. Dustin Johnson led early followed by Retief Goosen and Paul Lawrie.
Jordan Spieth was favored at 5-1 early to win this year’s British Open. As of 12:15 pm EST, Spieth was within the top 10 on the leaderboard. Live wagering at this time had Johnson at +275 odds and Spieth at +350 while Retief Goosen would pay out $350 for every $10 bet with a win. Continue to monitor throughout the day.
