Lee Westwood is the best backed contender and he has been cut to 14/1. Whilst defending champion Padraig Harrington is a 16/1 shot and is 2/9 to make the cut with Monty 8/15 to make the cut. "We expected our volume of bets to increase in the absence of Tiger but were not sure if turnover would be down, but as it stands both the volume and turnover are up and the Open looks set to have a record turnover of up to £30 Million." said William Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams. |
