The US Open: Who'll Win on the Toughest Course in the Game?








As practice rounds begin there's no clear cut favorite, just general agreement that whoever does win at Chokemont Oakmont will have done so on an ultra-challenging course.

I'm not telling you which player I'm betting on rooting for, because any time I choose a player to win an event, that player inevitably flounders. So I won't even mention the name of my favorite.

It's OK if you tell me yours though.

    I'd love to see Phil win, and I doubt I'm the only one.

    How about Jimmy Furyk.

    It's easy to pick, Tiger, Phil, Ernie, or Sergio, but I'll give you Paul Casey!, I like Luke Donald and KJ Choi too (too bad KJ just won or he would be my pick).

    This is going to be Phil's year. I know it.

    Out of the four majors, Tiger has had the least success (and consistency) at the US Open. Of course, his US Open record is a career for most players. I like Goosen this week - especially with everything I've read about the greens. I also like David Toms, as a semi-sleeper.

    Hmmm... you know who's been flying under the radar? I like the Goose, and I suppose that's an easy pick but everyone is complaining how hard the course is going to be. And that only bodes well for him because he plays ridiculously tough golf courses well.

    That was a great pick!..PC played amazingly today!!!! I hope you have a bit of $$$ on him. ;o)

    Shocking what happend to Retief though, isn't it? I was pretty sure he'd fare well at Oakmont. Goes to show you.

    Well, Casey didn't do very well on Sunday, but were happy w/ El pato!
    ;)!

    Everyone played well and it was good to see an event with a number of people w/ a chance to win!

    We'll see who we can pick for the next even (Other than Tiger because that's just too easy of a pick)! I think alot of people will be picking Furyk.
