Spieth, Tiger, Fowler lead early US Open favorites

Patrick Reed may have stared down some of the biggest names in golf Sunday to win the Masters, but that didn’t impress the oddsmakers quite as much come Monday.

Online sportsbook Bovada on Sunday listed Reed at 40-1 odds to win the US Open in June at Shinnecock Hills in New York. On Monday, Reed’s number had improved, up to 28-1.

But the three golfers who finished directly behind him, plus Reed’s Sunday playing partner whom he beat by three strokes in the final round at Augusta, all had better odds.

The favorite is American Jordan Spieth. The 2015 US Open winner is listed at 9-1, up from his 10-1 odds on Sunday. Spieth shot a record-tying final-round 64 on Sunday to finish two strokes behind Reed. Runner-up Rickie Fowler, who lost by just one stroke to Reed, is tied with Tiger Woods at 14-1. Woods finished tied for 32nd at 1-over par last weekend.

Fourth-place Masters finisher Jon Rahm of Spain is tied with Jason Day at 18-1.

Coming in just behind Spieth at 10-1 odds to win the season’s second major are Dustin Johnson and Rory McIlroy. McIlroy teed off with Reed in the final pairing on Sunday, but was inconsistent on his front 9 and never challenged down the stretch. He finished tied for fifth with Bubba Watson and Henrik Stenson, six shots behind Reed.

Defending US Open champion Brooks Koepka is listed at 40-1.
