2. U.S. Open Prop Bets - 6/13/2013
The Tour returns to Merion for the first time since 1981, and this has the makings of a unique tournament. The par-70 course will play at less than 7,000 yards, and the forecast is calling for a soggy week in the Philly suburb. With that in mind, here are the best prop bets for the second major of the season.

3. Woods favored heavily to win U.S. Open - 6/13/2013
The PGA Tour returns to Merion Golf Club for the first time in 22 years, when the 1981 U.S. Open was held in Ardmore. The course hasn’t evolved much in the past 32 years, and at 6,996 yards, it will be one of the shortest major courses in recent years, and the shortest U.S Open course since 2004. Tiger Woods is the prohibitive favorite (4-to-1 odds) to win his 15th major, and first since 2008.

|
7. Day favored to win Byron Nelson Championship - 5/16/2013
The Tour swings back to Texas for the Byron Nelson Championship. TPC Four Seasons is traditionally one of the toughest Par 70’s on the Tour, and two of the past three champions (Keegan Bradley in 2011, Jason Day in 2010) won on their first visit to Irving. Jason Dufner is the defending champion of this event, but Day is the favorite to win at 12-to-1 odds.
