There are still three spots left open in the field, with speculation running wild on who the players that take those spots will be.

The betting odds above were released by PaddyPower, a British bookmaker, and it’s notable that the three men at the top of it are all hugely negative, with three spots left open in the field.

“I don’t know, mate. My team around me worries about all that stuff. I’m here to win golf tournaments.”
It’s very possible that those three golfers could be filling out the field at Bedminster when the tournament kicks off next Wednesday.
Donald Trump Weighs In
Former President Donald Trump, the owner of Bedminster, weighed in on the dispute between the PGA and LIV.
“All of those golfers that remain ‘loyal’ to the very disloyal PGA, in all of its different forms, will pay a big price when the inevitable MERGER with LIV comes, and you get nothing but a big ‘thank you’ from PGA officials who are making millions of dollars a year,” Trump wrote. “If you don’t take the money now, you will get nothing after the merger takes place, and only say how smart the original signees were.”
The former President certainly seems to be in favor of golfers like Smith, Scott and Matsuyama jumping ship, due to his predicted merger.
