2 articles · Updated · AL.com · Jul 15

Summary

  • $50 is being offered to new Polymarket users who enter promo code ALCOM and trade $20 on Open Championship markets ahead of Thursday's start at Royal Birkdale.
  • The promotion requires account registration, ID verification and a qualifying location, and Polymarket says newly eligible U.S. users can also skip the platform's waitlist.
  • Polymarket frames the market as event-contract trading rather than sportsbook wagering, with prices reflecting implied probabilities set by users in an orderbook.
  • Open trading is centered on Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy as leading contenders, while Matthew Fitzpatrick and Aaron Rai are highlighted as longer-shot alternatives.
