A trend to consider:
6 of the last 10 Open Champs MC'd the year before winning. The others finished no better than T30.
2009- Cink (MC)
2010- Oosthuizen (MC)
2011- Clarke (T44)
2012- Els (MC)
2013- Mickelson (MC)
2014- McIlroy (MC)
2015- Johnson (T47)
2016- Stenson (T40)
2017- Spieth (T30)
2018- Molinari (MC)
Notables that MC'd last year include:
Dustin Johnson
Jon Rahm
Hideki Matsuyama
Justin Thomas
And a few other that were T30 or worse in 2018:
Henrik Stenson
Brooks Koepka
Paul Casey
Bryson DeChambeau
Marc Leishman
Rafa Cabrera Bello
Gary Woodland
At 70/1 I’ve got Gary Woodland shocking the golfing world(again) and going back to back in Majors. Move over Bruce.
My dark horse pick for First Round Leader is Sung Kang at 200/1.

Thanks a lot, McIlroy. Sooooooooo glad you shot a 61 on this course back when you were freaking 16. WTF good does that do now?

Actually calling it The Open is correct. Lots of people call it the British Open but the OP's title is correct.

The Open Championship, often referred to as The Open or the British Open, is an annual golf tournament conducted by The R&A.

Many non-British broadcasters referred to the Open as the "British" Open in their coverage until 2010, when the R&A introduced use of contractual terms in their media contracts, similar to the Masters, and now rights holders are obliged to refer to the tournament as "The Open".

Yessir, and Rahm. I think that guy will definitely win at least 1 major

Yeah I know people here call it the British Open, and they’re incorrect. Do you call it the Augusta Masters?
Our Open came later and was named The United States Open, theirs has always been tOpen

Bet 100 and win 150 so total payout is 250
