Rory McIlroy Leads After Day One at US Masters With 18-1 Odds
Rory McIlroy came into the 2011 US Masters with odds of 18/1 of winning. After Day One, he led the pack.

Tiger Woods Odds To Win 2010 PGA Championship Now At Lucky 13
SBG Global has just moved Tiger Woods odds to win the 2010 PGA Championship from 12/1 to 13/1 on Wednesday. The payout would be $130 for every $10 bet.

“It remains to be seen whether Woods odds will get even longer before the tournament starts on Thursday,” said Don Shapiro of Gambling911.com.
