Two of the biggest names in golf, Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods, were among the top 10 on the leaderboard heading into Friday’s play.  McIlroy topped the board.

On Friday morning, McIlroy had odds of 4/1, slashed nearly four times from 15/1. 

But the Irishman has not had much luck playing on Fridays.

"When you go out on Thursday, there are not many expectations. I've got to approach it like that," he said.

"But it's not like I've shot good scores and haven't backed them up before. I just haven't done it recently."

Woods, meanwhile, had the longest opening odds of his career at 18-1 and was 10th on the leaderboard entering Friday’s play.

He’s an absolute bargain at Bookmaker at nearly 12-1.
