There’s nothing so tough as watching your backed selection in The Open outright betting, just fall a little bit short. Fortunately at online betting site Boylesports, your outright selection in the The Open 2016 field is covered by a nice bit of insurance. If the player you have backed in the outright market (pre-tournament) finishes second or third (which includes ties) then you will get your lost stake refunded up to the value of £50 from Boylesports!

Heading up the market as joint favourites are Dustin Johnson and Jason Day who are a 9/1 quote to go and land the title at Royal Troon over the links. Johnson is a man on fire at the moment, having claimed his first Major title over the summer and has continued that form on as well, by going straight back out and winning the WGC Bridgestone international. He has landed a top five finish in seven of his last ten tournaments and in each of his last four.

He is on fire at the moment and may take some stopping. Jason Day had a near miss in The Open last year when he lost in a three-man play off for the title to Zach Johnson. Day and Dustin Johnson are the powerhouses of the game at the moment, but that tied finish for top spot last year for Day was his best result at The Open by a country mile.

Jordan Spieth is a man with the game to contend if he is confident. He arrived early at Royal Troon to get some work in and has been flighting the ball with both irons and woods. There’s no questions about his short game and with luck a huge factor in winning on the links, he could easily rise back into the spotlight.

Spieth is a price of 12/1 to win the title at Royal Troon, with Rory McIlroy in is in at a 10/1 quote to land it. There are the four strongest market presences there, but as we have seen time and time again at The Open, it is a Major that isn’t unfamiliar with springing up surprises at all. So the are some big prices around with the likes of Rickie Fowler at 33/1 and Louis Oosthuizen at 50/1.
