U.S. Open Odds 2012: Tiger Woods Favored To Lead After Round 1

The 2012 U.S. Open is just one day away from starting, and Tiger Woods is the early favorite to win the entire tournament at the Olympic Club. But will he be the leader early in the tournament? The early odds on which golfer will lead at the conclusion of Round 1 have Woods at 10/1, the best odds for the opening-round leader.

Bovada has all the odds for the clubhouse leader after Round 1. Here are some of the notable golfers beyond Woods:

Lee Westwood, 16/1
Rory McIlroy, 16/1
Luke Donald, 18/1
Phil Mickelson, 22/1
Dustin Johnson, 33/1
Bubba Watson, 40/1

Johnson is coming off a victory at the St. Jude Classic last weekend while Watson won the first major of the year, the Masters Tournament. McIlroy is looking to defend his U.S. Open title after claiming victory last year.
