2008 US Open betting odds were still available at SBG Global with plenty of options in addition to betting on the outright winner.

There were odds being offered on which country/region would win this year's US Open.  The USA with Tiger Woods a factor comes in as the -150 favorite.  Europe would pay out $325 for every $100 bet if a European golfer were to win.  Australia pays $1000.  A great value might be the Rest of the World option that would pay $550 for every $100 bet. 

Will Tiger Woods lead after the first round?  This one would pay out $400 for every $100 if he does lead.

Will There Be A Hole In One In The 2008 US Open Championship?  YES pays $150 for every $100 bet.

Significant betting was expected on this event. 

Below are the 2008 US Open betting odds (updated as of Thursday evening).  *+150 means that a $100 bet would pay out $150.  +700 means a $100 bet would pay out $700 and so on.
