Jason Day and Jordan Spieth are favorites to win the 2016 US Open at 7-1 and 8-1 odds, respectively.
Day, the current world number one, says he is recovering from a cold but that shouldn’t affect his performance these next four days.
“I'm at the back end of a cold. You can probably hear it in my voice, but I'm fine. I'm going to do fine. It's not an excuse. I'm going to be ready for the start Thursday,” Day said. “It's just that things happen. I was just going to say that I've never been more stressed in my life than right now. It's just because being No. 1 in the world, having a lot of expectations on you, having to practice so hard to keep that No. 1 spot, trying to win as many tournaments as I can puts a lot of stress and pressure on your shoulders.
“Sometimes your immune system gets a little heated, and you're more susceptible to getting some illnesses that way. … So it is what it is.”
The U.S. Open stands apart because of its unpredictability, Spieth noted.
“Winning a U.S. Open is a different experience than winning at any other venue,” Spieth added. “You learn that literally anything can happen, especially out here where the way the course is set up right now, the way the rough and the bunkers, with the amount of sand that’s in the bunkers, the fact that it’s very rare to be able to hit a green in regulation from a fairway bunker.
“If you don’t hit fairways on the last five holes, you could lose a 4- or 5-shot lead like that. Just not even doing anything wrong. You can hit decent shots that just barely miss the fairway. And all of a sudden, you have to do well to have 10 feet for par. ...
“So as much as I speak to major championships being like two events in one, you have to have the patience for two rounds each round.”
Betting on golf tournaments offers the promise of substantial payouts with even the favorites offering the potential for a $700 starting pay day.
