Justin Rose 55/1 the Best-Backed Player for The Open as Punters Back Sentimental Storyline
Justin Rose has emerged as the most popular outright selection with punters ahead of The Open 2025, with bet365 reporting the Englishman is the best-backed player at a price of 55/1.
Despite sitting behind the market leaders in terms of odds, Rose has captured 7% of all outright bets placed with the bookmaker, more than any other golfer in the field.
The surge in support comes just a day before the tournament tees off at Royal Portrush, where Rose will hope to claim his first Claret Jug.
It’s not just outright betting where the 44-year-old is attracting money. Rose is also the best-backed player in the First Round Leader market, again at 55/1, with punters recalling his history of fast starts.

DeChambeau Backed to Bomb Out

Punters appear sceptical of his ability to adapt to Portrush’s unique demands.
