The Claret Jug is up for grabs.
Following the Masters Tournament, PGA Championship and U.S. Open, last up for golf majors in 2024 is the Open Championship.
After American Brian Harman cruised to victory in 2023 going under 13 to par, he'll be hoping to reclaim the Claret Jug for another year.
But there are plenty of top golfers who will look to dethrone Harman at the Royal Troon in Scotland. Here's a look at the players to watch, odds and more for the 2024 Open Championship:
