Open Championship: 25/1+ winner

Another previous winner, taking the title home in 2013, and another with experience to spare. Lefty has a fantastic record in this tournament, and he could very well have won again last year, with just a little more luck. The 47-year-old American led after two rounds and went on to end as runner-up, beaten three stokes by Stenson. Phil loves playing golf in this part of the world and, unlike Stenson, has proven his worth many times at the top level, that Open title sitting alongside three Masters tournament wins, most recently in 2010, and a PGA Championship gong. Is his best golf behind him? Perhaps. Is he still capable of winning this at 40/1? You bet.

Ian Poulter @ 66/1

Finishing up with the biggest price of the trio and we have our fingers crossed for an English winner at Southport. Poulter was runner-up in 2008 behind Ireland’s Padraig Harrington, missing out by four shots. That’s the closest he has come so far, but he’s good enough to improve a place this year. Back at this venue the 41-year-old will be confident, and thankfully for followers, Coral’s traders are giving out a massive 66/1. He booked his invite with the kind of no nonsense graft we have come to expect from him throughout his career, and that same work-ethic will see Ian put pressure on the leaders again.
