Ten years ago, Tiger Woods won by 15 shots at Pebble Beach, but for the rest of the field there were other distractions.
This is the US Open and there is a Tiger in the room. It is just that nobody really wants to make eyes at him any more. Padraig Harrington nods and walks by. Lee Westwood makes a bit of small talk. But these days everyone is in love with Pebble and not with the man who 10 years ago turned it into his own beachfront property.

Instead of adding 20 yds, I would like a short wedge that guarantees my pitch to within 5 feet of the cup, as this would probably knock 5-8 strokes off my game.
I’m going with Phil. Five runner-ups... hopefully he learned something from Winged Foot in 2006.

The next challenge for Hank, none other than our hero RUSH LIMBAUGH!!! Yes it’s true, Rush was on Live From at 10:00 to make the big announcement!!!
And we found out that his very good friend, Tom Watson was in the same room with Hannity, Levin, Elton and the other guests at the wedding!!!!
watch the ratings touch the clouds
you go Rush
I can’t wait!!
Of course John Feinstein and Notah Begay couldn’t wait to take some shots at him...
We’ll see what pro players come on the show with him....
the Golf Channel is a puke fest for me.....
What is up with Kelly Thilghman and that man-voice? Gad, I switch the station whenever she appears.
and I wish she would open her eyes...she always looks like the 2nd shot on a par 5 into the sun
K J Choi out of the gates quickly, -3 after 14. Phil is struggling at +4. Time to tune on the action.
all over it...K J was =3 to start
+ 3 oops
Anyone in the clubhouse at even to +3 are dancing a jig right now. I’ll bet a dime the score goes no lower than the -1 it is now by the end of the day....
Tiger is still a great golf player, and as he settles his recent history, he will come back with domination.
