British Open first round leader odds, predictions & best bets: Fox can set early pace

If you don’t want to wait 4 days for a winning bet on the 151st Open Championship, there is always the option to bet simply on the player who has the best opening round.

With 156 players set to step up to the first tee at Royal Liverpool Golf Club on Thursday morning (starting from 1:35 am ET, which is 6:35 am local time) the odds if you get it right are always rewarding and longshots can make their mark if conditions fall in their favor, even if they can’t keep up their form for the full tournament.

Conditions may well play a part in determining the Thursday night leaderboard, too, as the forecasr suggests the early starters could be greeted by a rain-softened course, with the later starters having a tougher time as the fairways and greens become firmer and the wind gets up.
