Despite the fact that he's only played four golf betting competitions in the last seven months, Tiger is still ruling the betting odds conversation leading up the 2010 US Open betting competition, demonstrating what a transformative figure in sports betting he is.

Since returning from his self-imposed exile from the PGA betting contest Woods' play in the few competitions he's taken part in has been irregular and challenging for golf betting handicappers to get a grip on. Sometimes he's looked dreadful, at other times he's looked outstanding. But Tiger continues to be Tiger and it will be pretty challenging to bet vs him, especially in the US Open betting.

After all, 2010's US Open odds contest will be held at Pebble Beach, the ideal location for the US Open betting competition; if the PGA were to choose a permanent home for the US Open betting competition, it will be right here.

And the last time that the US Open odds competition played out at this idyllic golf course Tiger Woods was the winner. However he didn't only win the event, he dominated it, shattering nearly every US Open betting record in the process and pretty much announcing himself as the top player in the world. He has dominated golf betting around the world ever since.

Naturally this course is a special place full of special memories for Woods and he'll be looking to use the past achievement to fuel him to present day achievement in this year's US Open betting competition.

But he'll have plenty of contest. Chief contender in the golf betting competition is of course his old nemesis Phil Mickelson. Lefty already has in one Major title under his belt thus far this year and would love to add another. Despite what the world rankings might say, Phil has been the best and most consistent golfer in the world over the last six months, as Tiger has been pretty much gone from golf betting.

A superb barometer for Woods likely achievement in the US Open odds contest is observing him play in the Memorial. All the largest names in golf betting will be present and sports betting devotees will learn how he holds up vs a gifted field as well as how his recuperation from a neck injury is coming along.

We'll know that Woods is indeed the favorite in the US Open betting competition if he holds his own or even wins at the Memorial.

Woods has the record for being the most strokes under par and has won the US Open 3 times. Mickelson has never secured the US Open. However, he's ranked number two worldwide just under Woods, and Woods has had a rough last few months. Between his neck injury and marital problems and the media scandal that went with them, Woods might not be as on top of his game as he might have been otherwise. At any rate the neck injury may be improving.

"I'm good enough to play, definitely," Woods said. "The swelling has gone down. I've got range of motion. I'm just a little bit sore at the end of the day after good practice sessions. But I've been able to recover for the next day, which I wasn't able to do prior to this. That's a good sign."

This year's US Open Golf tournament will be hosted from June 17-20.
