The world's top golfers will take on Royal Troon this weekend at the 145th running of The Open.

Players will tackle deep bunkers, tall fescue, and unpredictable weather - all staples of the historic tournament - as the third major of the year gets underway Thursday morning.

The field is deep, but here are the players at the top of the betting odds list:

Player World Golf Ranking Odds
Dustin Johnson No. 2 +800
Jason Day No. 1 +850
Rory McIlroy No. 4 +1000
Jordan Spieth No. 3 +1100
Adam Scott No. 8 +2000
Sergio Garcia No. 12 +2200
Branden Grace No. 10 +2500
Henrik Stenson No. 6 +2800
Justin Rose No. 11 +3000
Rickie Fowler No. 7 +3300
Phil Mickelson No.19 +4000
Lee Westwood No. 39 +4000
Louis Oosthuizen No. 14 +4500
Shane Lowry No. 27 +4500
Martin Kaymer No. 52 +4500

Dustin Johnson comes in as the favorite, as the world No. 2 has won his last two starts, including the U.S. Open in June.

Jason Day, in search of his second major and first Claret Jug, is hot on DJ's trail heading into the weekend.

While the biggest names are at the top, there's notable names with reasonable betting lines down the list.

Reigning Masters winner Danny Willett is slotted at +5500, while last year's Open champion, Zach Johnson, comes in at +6000.
