European Tour Betting – Local Hopes High On Irish Open Odds

Rory McIlroy is the 6.890* favourite  at Bet365 Sportsbook on their odds to win the Irish Open for the event at the Killarney Golf & Fishing Club, but he’ll be in tough against the likes of Justin Rose (15.09*), Graeme McDowell (15.61*), and Padraig Harrington (17.69*).

McIlroy was third at the Open Championship at St. Andrew’s, where he recorded a record-low 63 in the first round, while McDowell won the U.S. Open, and Rose has won twice on the PGA Tour this season, with both wins since June.

Harrington hasn’t played his best golf lately, but he’ll look to ride the luck of the Irish in Killarney this week, and replicate his success at this event in 2007 when it was held in Adare. Irish-born players have taken home four of the last 13 major championship titles, while McIlroy is seen as a major winner in waiting. His chances at the PGA Championship could well be dictated by whether he can continue his good form at the Irish Open.
