    Rory McIlroy to win -115

    Hard to see this being a bad bet. We all know Wiesberger isn't going to do anything so it's basically him against a handful of others who he has at least a 2 shot lead against. Normally you have to factor in the possibility of a choke by the leader along with someone coming from behind but Rory's form gives no indication that's going to happen.

    He only has a one stroke lead, don't know why anybody would bet on him at -115. I would just wait and bet on it live.

    I'm a Rory fan, but I think someone gets hi today. Maybe in a playoff? I'm just not sure who it will be.

    The one stroke lead is against Wiesberger, and just to put that into perspective 5dimes has him as a heavily juiced +1200 to win

    Looking at lines, it appears it's Rory or Rickie.

    And I wouldn't take +1200 with monopoly money. Correct line probably closer to +1600. He will fold like a tent today.

    Betting against Rory is difficult today - 1) Rory has to lose and 2) you have to pick the guy who's going to win it.

    A week ago Rory teed off on Sunday 3 strokes behind Garcia. He birdied the first 3 holes and nearly the fourth - then grinded his way to the win. It was near perfect execution that isn't fully explained by the score - confidence to have a plan and execute and take the tourney away from the best players in the game. He's red hot and my bet would be he does it again today. Chalk sunday.

    The announcers don't stop talking about - he's hitting monster drives dead center and accurate with his irons, not even particularly hot with the putter and he's ahead of everyone. It's gonna be a big deal if he wins today.

    SNO

    A few years ago, at the British after 36, me and a buddy hammered the field @-150 vs. Tiger and Rory (leading)
    We maxed it out for a nickel.

    Your bet is looking good.BOL.

    Ricky Fowler is not going to be denied. I have to root for anyone that can rock that white trash mustache on the PGA tour.

    The field bet is basically 3 players at this point.

    Stenson, Phil, Fowler, and Rory all within 1 shot.

    field collapsing..
