• 6 min read
In the blink of an eye, the third major championship of the season is upon us as players will tee off at the 2022 U.S. Open later this week. Storylines are bound to be abundant as 156 competitors vie for our national championship, and even more so when considering this year’s venue: The Country Club at Brookline.
One of the most historic sites in the United States, The Country Club has played host to underdog stories, dramatic comebacks and playoffs while serving as a melting pot for some of the most memorable moments in golf. From Francis Ouimet’s victory in the 1913 U.S. Open to Justin Leonard’s clinching putt in the 1999 Ryder Cup, this year’s U.S. Open has big shoes to fill.
However, the pool of potential winners at the U.S. Open has never been deeper, and with this comes complex storylines. With so much controversy swirling around in the world of golf, history and prestige have momentarily taken a back seat in the game. Trust me when I say, though, that will not be the case for the U.S. Open at The Country Club.
Below is an all-inclusive rooting guide for the 2022 U.S. Open. Here’s a look at the nine that stand out the most with their odds provided by Caesars Sportsbook.
