British Open Round 4 best bets: Picks for Xander Schauffele, Shane Lowry

Xander Schauffele to Win (+330)

9:05 a.m. ET tee time

Xander Schauffele is the favorite and we are going to buy what the books are selling us. We bet him prior to the tournament at +1900 and have a great chance to cash that ticket. He is playing tremendous golf and is in a great position to win his second major of the year. Earlier this week, I wrote about how hilarious it would be if Schauffele would have won nothing of real importance over his entire career (not really), but then popped for two majors in a single year. You can just envision talking to your buddies about that in two years.

Schauffele is the most complete golfer near the top of this leaderboard and I expect him to get the job done on Sunday. If you need a sweat, grab some Schauffele at +330.

Shane Lowry Top 5 (+250)

8:45 a.m. ET tee time

Things didn't go well for Lowry on the back nine. Outside of that, he has been playing amazing golf. Having the lead for three days is never an easy thing and I expect him to work it out on Sunday. Lowry will have the mentality of a chaser, which should free him up and allow him to tap into the amazing iron game that has treated him well thus far. Lowry is a great bounce back candidate and we have a great opportunity to bet him at plus money.
