Gonna tape it and lean on the FF to avoid all the Tigermania. That 2d shot on 18 was pretty amazing, tho.

Will have to see if DJ can hold it together. If he does, they may need to rename the course…

Time shifting on TiVO is the only way to watch golf.

Pause the telecast. Walk the dog, Get back on your recliner. skip the BS, Catchup

Pause the telecast. Go pull some weeds out of the garden. Back on recliner, skip the commercials. Catchup

Lather, Rinse, Repeat.

Actually, that is how I watch most of my TV programs.

yeah, that works real well for golf. There are 6 hours of coverage today, and probably about 2-3 hours of something I want to watch.

Tiger was interesting yesterday. He showed flashes of the old Tiger. But he was in position to do some real moving and did not quite capitalize. Like sinking the putt on 18. It would have given him a real charge. But Dustin appears to very comfortable out there. Phil can not keep it together, but he can still reach the top with a good round today.

Sunday meltdown at the U.S. Open.

Massive choke. Dustin gave 5 back in the first 5 holes.

The Americans are fading, but the internationals are getting it done.

Go Ernie!

Oops. I many have jinxed him!

You better not have, I need the points!

This tournament is still pretty wide open.

14 green is kind of tough.

Kind of tough? Brutal!

Nice recovery by Ernie.

The last group hitting onto the 14th green. This should be interesting.

I’m thinking Havret.

I’m still thinking McDowell.

A pint of Guinness goes to Sam Stone for winning the US Open Golf Pool.

Congrats to Sam Stone and Graeme McDowell. Which no one picked BTW!!

brochevsky and Yeticus Rex get to share a pint for their 2nd and 3rd place finishes.

Thanks everyone for playing. I am glad everyone scored!!

I have no idea how I did that. I’d like to say it was my intricate knowledge of the current state of the PGA, but really I kind of guessed at most of them.
