Before the big dance starts next week, the Fed Ex St. Jude Classic still has to be played. This will give some players the chance to tune their games prior to the U.S. Open, while others will be playing for the money and fed ex points. Lee Westwood comes in as the defending champ and will have a chance to win a regular tour event this week before he doesn't win a major next week.
Here are some notable player betting odds from Bodog:
Lee Westwood: 7-1
David Toms: 9-1
Zach Johnson: 14-1
Sergio Garcia: 25-1
Geoff Ogilvy: 40-1
Retief Goosen: 40-1
Padraig Harrington: 50-1
Y.E. Yang: 66-1
Anthony Kim: 66-1
Camillo Villegas: 80-1
Pick: I'll take Sergio this week. His game has slowly been rounding into form, he just hasn't been able to put four rounds together yet. His should have a lot of confidence after shooting two great rounds earlier in the week to qualify for the U.S. Open.
Update: Great pick by me. He shot 78 in first round.
