With a little more than 12 hours until the first group tees off at the 2012 U.S. Open, Tiger Woods remains the favorite to win his fourth national championship. The Lake Course at The Olympic Club will certainly provide an immense challenge for the world's top players. The favorites are consolidated into two main power groups. After Woods comes the Euro trio of Lee Westwood, Luke Donald, and Rory McIlroy. All three have held the No. 1 ranking in the OWGR over the past year but Westwood and Donald are still searching for their first major championship.
Masters champion, Bubba Watson, is in the middle of the pack at 50-1. Watson has only played twice since winning the season's first major and did not sound happy with the course setup on Tuesday during his media availability. Some more odds below:
