The final men’s major championship of the year is almost here as the best players in the world are set to descend upon Royal Liverpool for the 151st Open Championship.

Last year, Cameron Smith — who has since joined the LIV Golf League — chased down Rory McIlroy at St. Andrews to become the Champion Golfer of the Year.

The Aussie has played in all three majors so far in 2023 and has bettered his finish each time. First, he tied for 34th at the Masters, then finished T-9 at the PGA Championship before a solo fourth outing at the U.S. Open.

McIlroy, after a missed cut at Augusta National, has finished T-7 at the PGA and solo second at the U.S. Open. The Northern Irishman is looking for his first major since 2014 — which came at Royal Liverpool. He’s the betting favorite across sportsbooks.

Here are the odds for the 151st Open.

Report: Tiger Woods will not play in the 2023 Open Championship at Royal Liverpool

Woods underwent ankle surgery in April.

[connatix div_id=”3f8b015acdd24c648befc5d5dac47469″ player_id=”b5b22055-8c69-4186-8375-d8426b37ec56″ cid=”7cbcea0d-4ce2-4c75-9a8d-fbe02a192c24″]

Tiger Woods underwent ankle surgery shortly after the Masters in April and hasn’t played on the PGA Tour since. And it doesn’t sound like he’ll be back anytime soon.

According to Bob Harig of Sports Illustrated, Woods will not be in the field for the 2023 Open Championship at Royal Liverpool, July 20-23.

“We have been advised that he won’t be playing at Hoylake,” said Mike Woodcock of the R&A via email to SI.

Woods is a three-time Champion Golfer of the Year: 2000 and 2005 at St Andrews and 2006 at Royal Liverpool. The 15-time major champion played in the 150th edition of the Open last year, but missed the cut at the Old Course.
