U.S. Open
 
Looks like a soggy weekend. They just showed Tigers drive on #1, he ended up behind a hospitality tent. Getting out of that wet rough will make for some high scores.

ESPN barely started their coverage, n' Tiger lets go with "OHHH...... GOD DAMN IT!!"

double bogey on #5

could be the toughest par 4 in the world scuds , tight driving area, cross bunker down the right side , if you are too far left off the tee you get blocked from going for the greeen. once you get to the uphill green it's small and slopes severly back to front, anything long is death

Hey Gales:

Arent you going to this?

I thought for sure you'd take one of those bunnies running around your office to see some golf this morning, then a trip to Belmont for the late Pick 4. Put on a jacket and join your buddy Carlos in the paddock?

You take her out for breakfast, then to Bethpage Black (not the horse, the course) to see Tiger and Phil, have some drinks, get in your call, hit belmont for the late races, then on to Don Pepes for some chicken parmesan and clams, then to that place in Manhattan that sells the $100 deserts. No problem for you Gales.

I doubt you'd be able to break 120 there today Gales. That is if you werent cheating and kicking your ball out from under a tree when no one is looking.
Those tee boxes are far back and they say not even Tiger can reach par 4's in 2 today. You'd need 4 shots to get on the green!

I agree. The greens they're showing look like lakes and the fairways are rivers. They're now saying 2pm, but from what I see, they'll be lucky to be able to restart it at about 4-5pm... if they're lucky.

with all the rain they've got forcasted for Sat/Sun... they might finish Tuesday.

My home course for 10 years and my absolute favorite course anywhere... hopefully the rain stops and they can play under reasonable conditions. Otherwise it'll be just too difficult, even for the US Open.

Furyk, Curtis, Hart, Z Johnson, Perry?
