Golf is different from other sports in that, the rooting interests aren't nearly as passionate, there isn't the "my guy" or "my team" and screw everybody else mentality. But, golf fans still have their favorites. Tiger is intruguing for obvious reasons and will be cheered by many (maybe boo'd by more), Phil Mickelson is always a fan favorite, Rory McIlroy always sees a strong gallery...is there anyone else you find yourself cheering for? Maybe a random swinger of the golf club, like my buddy who for some reason is pulling for Ian Poulter, or maybe you want Sergio Garcia to repeat...
Here's who Vegas likes...
- Jordan Spieth 10-1
- Justin Thomas 10-1

But I don't want to know who you are betting on, I want to know who you're cheering for.
