Welcome into an all new betting preview for this week's Open Championship.

I'm Rick Damon, that right there, Andy Lack and Andy O'Mah. Here we go.

Yeah.

Is this your favorite major of the year?

Where does it stack up for you against the other three?

I mean, listen, there's something special about, you know, because we're going to go 260 days without a major championship.

So there's something

special about the flowers are blooming, the first major in nine months, Augusta National,

everything that comes along with that, the way that it's on the schedule and everything around

it feels very special. But this is also such a pure championship and it's so unique

in its own way. So it's hard to, I don't think I'd say like, it's my favorite, but I love it.

And honestly, if they just flip spots on the calendar, I'd probably be like, yeah, the open

championship is like the greatest major ever. I think it's the major, and you could probably make this argument for

the masters as well, but I think it's the major who knows who it is the most. I think it's the

major that has the most solidified identity, right? I think the USGA sometimes struggles with marketing the

U.S. Open as the toughest test in golf and then wondering why everyone gets upset when somebody

wins it at nine or ten under par, whereas the integrity of the Open Championship has nothing to do with the winning

score, right? Which is almost refreshing. It's a celebration of a different style of golf that we do

not get to see on the PGA tour from week to week. And I think to me, that's what makes it feel so special.

Yeah, I mean, any business tying itself to one idea, one ideology, and then not doing that

is going to have a problem, right? It would be like if Apple, you know, started offering, you know, like really cheap products and like that would

break in five, you know what I mean?
