Tiger Woods' odds to win at Kiawah Island are more than twice as good as the odds given to the next-closest competitor.
Tiger Woods still hasn't won a major since 2008. But bookmakers still see him as the odds-on choice to win every time he tees off, and that's the case 2012 PGA Championship at Kiawah Island in South Carolina is no exception.
Woods has 6-1 odds to win the championship. That's more than twice as good as the next-best odds given, which belong to Lee Westwood at 14-1. Other notables include Luke Donald and Rory McIlroy at 16-1, Adam Scott at 25-1 after his poor performance down the stretch in the British Open, Ernie Els, who eventually won that tournament, at 40-1, and Keegan Bradley, who won last year's PGA Championship and won this week's Bridgestone Invitational on the final hole of the competition, at 66-1.
Here's a more complete list of the odds:
Tiger Woods 6/1
Lee Westwood 14/1
Luke Donald 16/1
