Nicklaus Favored To Win British Open At Turnberry
Jack Nicklaus, dominant figure in the British Open, is a heavy favorite as the 117 year championship begins at Turnberry on the Ailsa course. Bookmakers set him at 11-2, with Turnberry’s windswept layout challenging players and raising the risk of a nightmare round. Johnny Miller, defending champion, recalls harsh conditions in 1973 as rival scores fluctuate. Nicklaus has won the Open twice since 1962 and placed on the podium multiple times, while Miller notes Turnberry’s notorious ninth tee and rugged terrain testing imagination and precision. Miller, last year’s winner at Lytham, arrives in rising form.
