We all know stories of a buddy who has won big on a sporting event. Whether it's the Kentucky Derby, or perhaps a punt on the Super Bowl, there are instances where someone has picked up a small fortune via a silly bet.
Although the favorites were firing at the US Open, we are unlikely to see a better bet than this one from X/Twitter user, @joshuadasilva, who netted himself almost $61,000 from a $5 stake during the third round at Pinehurst No.2.
