TIGER WOODS is 45/1 to win the 2020 US Open – which is one the biggest ever prices in his sensational 35-year golf career.
The superstar’s huge price is partially down to his ongoing back problems and the fact he has only played a handful of rounds so far this year.

The former world No. 1 has previously been priced as big as 65/1 but that was way back when the 44-year-old was an amateur.
But despite the bookies’ massive odds ahead of the US Open at Winged Foot in New York, we don’t think you should write off Woods just yet.
Although Woods is 45/1 to win, Ladbrokes have the American at just 9/1 to finish in the top five – meaning he clearly has potential to claim his 16th major.
And Ladbrokes are offering up to seven places on their each way bets too.
If you back Woods to finish in the top five, and bet a fiver on this tip at 9/1 and it comes in, you will win £50.
New customers who deposit and bet £5 will also be rewarded with a free £20 worth of bets (4 x £5 free bets) with Ladbrokes*.
SunSport golf writer Sam Morgan: “OK, hear me out… with so many places being paid out on for each way bets, you want someone who can offer you a decent return for 1/5 the odds.
“And with so many players so evenly ranked at the top of the rankings, let’s go for someone who has done it all before and is due four good rounds.
“Woods is a battler, a grinder, a wily veteran now at 44. He loves a tough challenge (when Ogilvy won he finished five over) and remains one of the best iron players in the game – essential at Winged Foot, where finding the correct part of the massive greens is important.”
All odds from Ladbrokes are correct at time of publication.
