Live Betting on the 2015 British Open Day 2: Zach Johnson, Danny Willett Lead
Sportsbook.ag will continue to offer live betting on the 2015 British Open and Friday’s Round 2 until approximately 3:30 pm EST Friday.
Dustin Johnson led the pack coming into Friday’s play while Retief Goosen was still going strong in 2nd place. By 8 am EST, Zach Johnson had taken over the lead with live odds set at 10-1.
Early favorite to win, Jordan Spieth, entered Thursday at 5-1 odds of winning the 2015 British Open. His odds were cut to 3.5-1 during the course of the day and this is where they remained throughout Friday morning. Spieth was very much in the thick of things towards the bottom of the top ten and that trend continued during the morning hours Friday. Danny Willett was in second place Friday morning with 12.5-1 odds of winning during live betting.
And in case you were wondering, the world’s one time number one Tiger Woods was woeful on Friday.
"I made so many mistakes," a dejected Woods said following his round. "I just didn't play well. It was not ideal. … It was just one of those mixed bags.
" … I know that today is a very benign day. Guys are going to go low. Guys have been shooting good numbers. Unfortunately I did not do that. Hopefully the conditions will be tough tomorrow and I can put together a good round and we'll move up the board progressively.
"I'm so far back and the leaderboard is so bunched that in order for me to get in there by Sunday, I'm going to have to have the conditions tough and then obviously put together some really solid rounds. If you shoot some good, solid rounds in tough conditions like that, players can move up the board, and hopefully I'm one of them."
You can bet throughout the day while Round 2 is in play at Sportsbook.ag here.
