Outrights:Zach Johnson(66/1) e.w. 143rd Open Championship
- - It would take a perfect storm of firm conditions and difficult weather for me to ever put Zach on the short list of favorites at Augusta, and then, probably not. Pinehurst also seems a stretch as being a good fit for Zach. On the other hand, Royal Liverpool, whether firm and fast, or thick from downpours, seems a decent fit (and easily offers the best odds), so I'm lumping on, and I believe there is a good chance Zach will also be flexing his Ryder Cup chops around the time of the John Deere Classic.
