By Thursday evening, German golfer Martin Kaymer sat atop The Players Championship leaderboard. He had huge odds of winning at 85-1 early on. His odds should still be decent come Friday morning and can be locked in here.

Why the long odds is a mystery considering Kaymer has won a PGA Championship.

He tied the course record with a 9-under 63 to take a two-shot lead.

Justin Rose at early 22-1 odds was among the top five on the leaderboard coming into Friday. Lee Westwood was also in the top five and had 33-1 odds of winning it all.

You can still bet on this year’s Players Championship before and after play through Sunday morning here.
