2010 Memorial Tournament Odds |

The Memorial Tournament is played at Muirfield Village Golf Club in Columbus, Ohio. The course was designed by Jack Nicklaus with Desmond Muirhead on a piece of property that Nicklaus' father took him hunting on when he was a young boy. The course opened on Memorial Day in 1974, and The Memorial Tournament was first played in 1976.
Jack Nicklaus won his own tournament in its second year, 1977, then in 1984 became the first two-time winner of this event.
Founded by and hosted by Jack Nicklaus, at the golf course he designed, The Memorial Tournament is one of the most important "regular" PGA Tour events (outside of the majors, Players Championship and WGC events) on the schedule. It's Jack's tournament, after all. And each year The Memorial honors golfers, living or dead, who made a significant contribution to the game (hence the tournament's name).
