Grand Slam tournaments and particularly the US Open odds competition seem to tower above the rest when it comes to quality and competition, though there are several golf betting tournaments every week of the year. Diehard golf betting devotees wait for months at a time for these tournaments to come around and ultimately, the 2010 US Open betting action has arrived.

On Thursday morning, it will be just about as close to heaven on earth as most golf betting devotees will get when the greatest golfers on the planet round up at Pebble Beach to tee off in the 116th US Open odds competition.

This year there will be a bit of additional drama once the US Open betting gets going as Tiger Woods, the #1 rated golfer in the world will be the fave in the US Open odds, and much 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 sharp in any of the few tournaments that he’s played since Thanksgiving of 2009. In fact, he didn’t finish back-to-back tournaments for the first time in his golf betting career and has ended well out of the money in his most recent tournaments. No one truly knows how he’ll compete when the US Open betting action gets moving. He has additionally parted ways with his long time swing guru.

But Tiger has established over and again that nobody competes as hard as he does and that nobody has a larger heart than he does. And with the 2010 US Open betting competition set to get underway in just a few days you’d be ridiculous to bet versus Woods.

Still, there are lots of other talented participants in the US Open odds this year as well. World #2 and the greatest player on the Tour at this time, Phil Mickelson, has ended 2nd in the US Open betting action a record 4 times but has never closed the deal. Look for him to be particularly sharp at Pebble Beach and be in the hunt on Sunday. Ernie Els is another dark horse and Major winner who has paid his dues and might make a major run in the golf betting as well.

Els’ is seeking his 3rd US Open championship at the same time that he keeps one eye on the FIFA World Cup, where his home nation of South Africa is now contending. The passion he’s feeling right now for his nation’s chances in the World Cup just might carry over to his golfing in the US Open.

But at the conclusion of the day, particularly considering the complexity of the course and the way Tiger Woods played past time the US Open odds competition was held here, Tiger remains the man to beat in this year’s US Open betting.

As any sports gambling fan that has ever bet on US Open odds understands, this event and this golf course have a quite unique relationship. Actually, there is no doubt that Pebble Beach would be its site of choice if the US Open gambling tournament were to ever choose a perpetual site rather than the traditional rotation between top courses.

The US Open gambling event holds a special place in the hearts and minds of all golf gambling fans. It’s undeniably the most challenging of any of the Majors and in several years the most challenging layout of any competition on the golf gambling calendar.

This year Pebble Beach will be as beautiful and exceptional as ever with its sweeping views of the rugged Pacific Coast line and its spectacular signature holes.

But do not be fooled by what you see. This is still the US Open gambling tournament and this is still the hardest course layout of the year. Apart from being as challenging as ever, Pebble Beach will play especially challenging throughout the US Open gambling competition as the tee boxes will be moved back, pin placements stretched and the challengers are going to have to cover 7,040 yards in 18 holes following the Arnold Palmer renovations.

As soon as you combine the possibility for wind gust to spray balls everywhere and that sort of distance with a links style course layout there is extremely little room for error.

Obviously when you’re dealing with that sort of distance it prefers the lengthy ball hitters and just about takes the European-style participants from the golf gambling hunt.

It’s little wonder that Tiger Woods is the US Open odds favorite at 6:1. And it’s also no surprise that world #2 Phil Mickelson is second in the US Open odds at approximately 7:1. These two men are part of an elite group that is both lengthy enough off the tee and exact enough with their wedges to conquer the Pebble Beach course, as well as obviously being the top participants in the world.

Even so, the possibility for disaster is so high that just a few bad shots may undo their US Open gambling championship hopes and that leaves a lot of space for a dark horse contender to arise in this year’s gambling.

The US Open this year will be held from June 17-20. It’s the fifth time that it will likely be played at the lovely Pebble Beach Golf Links, however the 1st time to be held there since 2000. It’s also going to be the 1st year to test a new guideline on grooves. Under the new rule, grooves in clubs will need to have less volume and more rounded edges in an effort to limit the amount of spin. The concept is to pressure the golf player to concentrate more on keeping the ball in the fairway than driving it long. It is still to be seen if this new guideline has any influence at all on the US Open.

Since coming back from his self-imposed exile from the PGA wagering event Woods’ play in the few tourneys he’s played in has been erratic and tricky for golf wagering handicappers to get a handle on. Sometimes he’s looked awful, sometimes he’s looked outstanding. But Tiger continues to be Tiger and it would be pretty tricky to bet against him, particularly in the US Open wagering.

In any case, 2010′s US Open odds event will happen at Pebble Beach, an ideal location for the US Open wagering action; if the PGA were to select a permanent home for the US Open wagering action, it would be right here.

And Woods was the victor the last time that the US Open odds action unfolded at this idyllic golf course. But he didn’t only secure the event, he dominated it, shattering almost every US Open wagering record in the deal and pretty much launching himself as the greatest player on earth. He has dominated golf wagering around the community since that time.

Obviously this course is a unique place full of unique memories for Woods and he’ll be looking to use the past success to fuel him to present day success in this year’s US Open wagering action.

But he’ll have lots of event. Chief contender number 1 in the golf wagering action is of course his old nemesis Phil Mickelson. Lefty already has one Major title under his belt thus far this year and would love to add another. Despite what the community rankings could say, Phil has been the best and most consistent golfer on earth over the past six months, as Tiger has been more or less missing from golf wagering.

Watching Woods play in the Memorial is a superb barometer for his likely success in the US Open odds event. All the largest names in golf wagering will be there and sports wagering devotees will discover how he holds up against a talented field and also how his recuperation from a neck injury is coming along.

We’ll know that Woods is indeed the favorite in the US Open wagering action if he holds his own or even wins at the Memorial.

Woods has won the US Open three times and has the record for being the most strokes under par. Mickelson has never claimed the US Open. Nonetheless, he’s rated number 2 worldwide right under Woods, and Woods has experienced a tough last few months. Woods might not be as on top of his game as he could have been lacking his neck injury and marital difficulties and the media scandal that went with them. At any rate the neck injury might be getting better.

“I’m good enough to play, definitely,” Woods said. “The swelling has gone down. I’ve got range of motion. I’m just a little bit sore at the end of the day after good practice sessions. But I’ve been able to recover for the next day, which I wasn’t able to do prior to this. That’s a good sign.”

This year’s US Open Golf championship is going to be held from June 17-20.
