US Open Thoughts

Wow, is the US Open turing into another case of survival or what ? One player at even par after two rounds. Saturday is typically moving day but in this case it might be "Holding Day". Stephen Ames I see is sitting in a good spot just a couple of shots back. He's got a great swing and mentality to handle Oakmont or at least handle it better than others. In the end the golf course will be the winner as it's not looking like anyone will end up under par. Here's our prediction with 2 rounds (3 rounds if it's a play-off) to go. Ames, Tiger Woods and Jim Furyk will be the guys left hanging around come Sunday afternoon. With Tiger set to become a father perhaps it's fitting he should take it, one thing we know for sure is that big Phil wont' choke coming down 18 this year as Lefty missed the cut by one shot. We give him credit for giving it whirl however, bad wrist and all.
