Tony Romo-10,000/1

Just kidding. I don’t think Tony Romo has any chance to beat the professionals.

It is worth noting that this is something that he is taking seriously, as this is his third event that he has played in as an amateur this year, receiving exemptions to play in each of them.

I do think that Romo is someone who is interesting to watch though, if only for the story. He is an incredible athlete, and makes for a decent golfer as well.

It would be insane if Romo won the event, not just for the odds, but for the fact that the winner of the event gets into the PGA Championship next week at Bethpage Black.

Imagine, the former starting quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys playing in a golf major. It’s pretty hard to think about and imagine.

At 10,000/1, I don’t think it is something that we need to worry about.
