We have seen some pretty wild bets over the past few years but this one lucky punter may top the list.
For reasons only known to the better, some guy placed $50 on Henrik Stenson to win the British Open and Aaron Baddeley to win the Barbasol Championship.
For context, Stenson had missed three consecutive PGA Tour cuts prior to the Open and 35-year-old Baddeley hadn’t won on the PGA Tour since 2011.
However, that didn’t faze one punter, who is now walking around with $86.7k in his pocket after winning one of the more bizarre bets in recent memory.

Stenson held off the legendary Phil Mickelson in the final round of the Open, while Baddeley topped Si Woo Kim in four playoff holes at the Barbasol Championships.
