Turnberry will host its fourth British Open from July 16-19. The three previous majors held at the club on the west coast of Scotland were won by Nick Price in 1994, Greg Norman in 1986, and Tom Watson in 1977.

The long-term forecast suggests that the sky, for the most part, will be overcast, with a bit of wind and rain thrown in.

Sounds pretty typical for the oldest Major in golf.

Many of the experts argue that Turnberry is too easy a course for the players of today.

It is not as tough as Carnoustie and Birkdale, where Padraig Harrington (+2000) won the first two legs of what so many Irish bettors hope will be a hat trick.

If the weather is fine, it is entirely possible that the course will play into the critics' hands and be ripe for the picking.

Tiger Woods is the favorite, listed at +162.50 to win the title.
