Toronto, June 13, 2005 ? www.bowmans.com oddsmakers have once again selected golf?s current ?fab four?, led by Tiger Woods, as the favourites heading into this week?s US Open Golf Championship at Pinehurst, North Carolina.
www.bowmans.com, the worldwide leader in online gaming for more than twenty years, has installed Woods, the reigning Masters Champion, as the favourite at 4-1 to collect his tenth career major at the 105th Open, beginning Thursday. Woods is followed by 2004 Masters Champion Phil Mickelson at 6-1 and World Number One Vijay Singh at 7-1. Ernie Els rounds out the Top Four picks at 8-1.
?Woods has got his ?major mojo? back,? says Scott Kaminsky, lines manager at www.bowmans.com. ?With his win at Augusta after a two-year major drought, Bowmans? feels Tiger may be ready to start another major championship run and we have set our odds accordingly.?
Canadian Mike Weir, 2003 Masters Champion and a top ten finisher in six of his last ten majors, but who is struggling and has missed his last four cuts, is listed by Bowmans at 35-1. Stephen Ames of Calgary is listed at 75-1, while the two other Canadians competing this week, Ian Leggatt and David Hearn, are amongst the rest of the field odds at 50-1.
Defending US Open Champion Retief Goosen is listed by Bowmans at 14-1, with David Toms at 20-1, Sergio Garcia at 30-1, and Chris DiMarco at 35-1. For those interested in long shots, Bowmans? odds on former British Open Champion Ben Curtis are 200-1 and former World Number One David Duval is at 500-1.
