There aren’t many tournaments if any in the world that can rival the anticipation of the US Open Gambling experience for golf gambling buffs.

Grand Slam tournaments and specifically the US Open odds contest seem to tower above the rest with regards to quality and contest, though there are numerous golf gambling tournaments every week of the year. Diehard golf gambling buffs wait for months at a time for these tournaments to come around and at last, the 2010 US Open gambling contest is here.

On Thursday morning, when the best golfers in the world assemble at Pebble Beach to tee off in the 116th US Open odds competition, it will likely be just about as close to heaven on earth as most golf gambling buffs will get.

This year there will be a bit of additional drama when the US Open gambling unfolds as Tiger Woods, the #1 rated golfer on earth will be the favorite in the US Open odds, and all the more scrutinized and under the media lens than normal after the tumultuous turn his private life has taken in the last six months.

Woods has not looked amazing in any of the few events that he’s played since Thanksgiving of 2009. In fact, he did not finish back-to-back events for the first time in his golf gambling career and has finished well out of the money in his latest tournaments. No one actually appreciates how he’ll perform when the US Open gambling event gets underway. He’s also parted ways with his long time swing guru.

But Tiger has proved time and time again that nobody has a larger heart than he does and nobody plays as hard as he does. And with the 2010 US Open gambling competition set to get underway in just a few days you’d be crazy to bet vs Woods.

Nonetheless, there are plenty of other gifted participants in the US Open odds this year too. Phil Mickelson, Community #2 and the greatest player on the Tour at this time, has finished 2nd in the US Open gambling event a record 4 times but has never sealed the deal. Look for him to be specifically amazing at Pebble Beach and be in the hunt on Sunday. Ernie Els is an additional dark horse and Major winner who’s paid his dues and could make a substantial run in the golf gambling too.

Els’ is seeking his 3rd US Open championship while he keeps one eye on the FIFA World Cup, where his home country of South Africa is competing. The inspiration he’s feeling at this time for his country’s possibilities in the World Cup just may carry over to his golfing in the US Open.

But at the end of the day, specifically considering the difficulty of the course and the way Tiger Woods played previous time the US Open odds competition was held here, Tiger is still the man to conquer in this year’s US Open betting.
