Welcome To The Preferred Lines Podcast. The ultimate preview detailing EVERYTHING you need to know for the 2026 Open Championship, powered by Read The Line.

The boys begin by welcoming James Nicholas, a recent Korn Ferry Tour Winner who qualified for The Open. They asked about his path in creating a brand through social media, what jealousies have been brought about from our Tour pros, and what his expectations are in preparing for the upcoming Open at Royal Birkdale. 

There have been some massive, risky changes made to Royal Birkdale since it last hosted The Open in 2017. We present a comprehensive deep dive with graphic images on the primary changes, including exploring the WHY for Royal Birkdale, and why it has positioned itself to be the flagship venue in the Open rota for years to come.

Finally, we provide a comprehensive review of the current odds board, dishing out takes on the pre-tournament favorites, as well as exploring value options and bets further down the board. We hope you enjoy the show and share with a friend!

Topics covered:

PGA Tour Championship Series
