US Open
 
Tiger's out. He was better when he was banging everything in sight.

ET, this is NA worthy.





That just might be the problem.

Wow, just saw that Ty Tryon got in up at the qualifier in Maryland. He's been trying to Monday qualify on the Nationwide.

KJ Choi will be in the mix. Stricker, and Kuchar too... those three are playing the most consistent golf on the tour.

I'll set his 36 hole O/U line at 155. What you taking?

Fred Funk also qualified in Md. Let's go old guys!

For what it's worth, I wouldn't be surprised if it's a totally off the wall player winning this one. The top 2 in the world are extremely consistent, and obviously in form, but also have been proven to be less than clutch in majors thus far. If I'm taking an American, it'd be Kuchar, but I could definitely see it as someone who is 100-1 in the Vegas sportsbooks.

Dude, go to the USGA website and check out the different qualifying sites and see who DIDN'T qualify, especially the Columbus, OH site. Unreal some of the names that didn't get in.

So I turn on the TV to watch a little of the Open and the first voice I hear is Chris Berman's. Are you kidding me? Keep Chris Berman away from golf. Didn't he jump the shark with Steve Forever Young or one of those other stupid names he crowbars into a highlight?

Yeah, Chris Bermans act is old. Enjoyed him for a long time, but he needs to distinguish himself in another sport....or stick to highlights

These guys get on my damn nerves with how far they hit it. Rory hits Driver, 8 iron to the 523 yard par 4 18th.:wf

I would hit Driver, 8 iron and then another 8 iron:o

FTFY.

This course is a joke. US Open should be won at near par.

USGA will put a hurting on these guys next year in San Fran. like no other. Complete lunacy at the Olympic Club. Be ready for 6-8 inch rough with greens rolling 15 on holes sloped to make putting impossible. The USGA can be cruel if they want to and now they are embarassed.

Too much heat the last couple weeks before the rain. With the recent heatwave (since replaced by rain), they were afraid to cut the greens US Open close because they didn't want another Shinnecock incident where they had to hose the 7th green down between groups on Sunday. Also, the rough didn't grow as expected in the searing heat.

Did anybody see the feature they did on Pinehurst No. 2 they ran yesterday? They are trying to go green and are minimizing the watering. They are irrigating tees, fairways and greens only. The rough is rough, it almost looks like the desert courses in the Southwest. You miss the fairway, you are in a giant waste bunker. 2014 should be interesting too.
