golf odds betting

What does “the field” refer to for golf betting odds?
I thought it was something like the odds for the players below the top 15? And top 15 refers to the top 15 odds? Or is it something else?
The field refers to all of the players in the tournament. If you made a wager with a friend about the outcome of a tournament and he or she says I’ll take Tiger and you can have the field, that means that Tiger has to beat the rest of the players in the tournament in order for you to lose.
