Zach Johnson, USA (50-1)
Truly, it’s remarkable that Johnson is being given such long odds to win this year’s British Open.
Last year’s champion also has a Masters victory under his belt, finished in a tie for eighth place at the U.S. Open last month and has two other top-10 finishes at The Open Championship in 2012-13.
Additionally, Johnson is hot, having followed up his excellent showing at the U.S. Open with a top-10 finish at Firestone just a couple weeks ago.
His steady play off the tee, stalwart demeanor and championship experience make him one of the most interesting players to watch this weekend.
