I have the 2nd pick in my 25 man snake draft. DJ went first and I am stumped as to who to take. I had it pegged down to two players, Justin Thomas or Brooks Koepka. I was so stuck on it that I had to enlist the help of my daughter. I wrote both names down and told her to pick one of them.
LOOKS LIKE WE’RE ROOTING FOR A BACK TO BACK US OPEN WINNER TO HAPPEN IN THE FIRST TIME IN OVER 30 YEARS! Let’s Phuckin Goooooooooo BK!!

You mean Charley Hoffman doesn’t lead every event after Thursday?!?! Could’ve fooled me!
![]() I wouldn’t bet Rahm with YOUR money! His first major win will come with me against. He doesn’t have the mental fortitude to survive a bad shot or two. Speith & JT suffered from this as well, but they were able to change that. Rahm would need to show me he has a major caliber win in his repertoire before I leave my stance of staunchly opposing him at every major. GL this weekend guys!

I'll take a lineup of
DJ Dechambeau Grace Walker R. Cabrera-Bello Grillo add McIllroy, Koepka as major contenders. Sentimental Picks: Snedeker - Coming off good tournament, is he finally in form? Furyk - as consistent as a US Open competitor can get, but age and lack of distance caught up to him? Dylan Meyer - Clark Kent, Tom Kite's son. 1st tournament as a Professional. Doesn't have the distance, but excellent short game.

Charlie Hoffman is leading. Great call by Declan!
Rory and Spieth are both off to terrible starts. Rory is 6 over after 5 holes. Spieth is 5 over after 5 holes. |

Thanks Herk!
Me being the idiot that I am, had Daniel Berger all but chosen with the 49th pick and let my brother talk me off of him (and Henley) and onto Kisner. I would’ve swept the entire pool had I stuck with my gut. Saratogadew knows the deal! I HAD EM & I LET EM OFF THE HOOK! ![]() It does help, however, that out of 478 people in my “one and done” pool that has to be chosen by January 11th, only 20 others took Koepka to win here. The 2.1 million catapults me from 180 up into top 15 for sure. One more win in the next 9 weeks and I’m sitting pretty for the top prize.

Good job Dec and good luck!
I just want to add my two bits worth of discontent with how the USGA handled slippery phil. He should have been tossed from the tournament, no question. I heard all the rules and explanations and I still say bull crap. He did what he did and gained an advantage, no telling how much further it would have rolled plus after he smacked the ball, it almost dropped in the cup...and then what would have happened??? As pissed as he was, it may have taken 3-4 more putts to get out of that mess. What little respect I did have for him was as a player but not anymore. Keep smiling slippery phil, enjoy your millions, how you have any fans left will amaze the crap out of me.

![]() I agree..and if that ball went in the hole, no way is a 2 stroke penalty enough... total BS. Would love to hear GPK's take, but he's never around unless some harness legend dies. ![]() |

Let’s be honest, that type of crap doesn’t even fly on most pitch & putt courses, let alone the grand stage!
