At least he has ankles!
 
Good to see that Schwartzel made it :struggle:
 
I am amazed that Duval came through and qualified! I thought DLIII would breeze through and Duval would struggle. He really is starting to show progress, we'll see what Bethpage Black does to that progress though!!!

Something must be wrong with me, I don't think Daly's outfit is bad.

It's not that its horrible,it's just horrible on him. A man that fat SHOULD NOT wear cloths like that. A thinner man can pull it off.

Not trying to hurt anyone's feelings, just stating a fact

Daly has the personality to wear them; let's leave it at that.
 
A 525 yard par 4 and a 517 yard par 5....Does that seem off to you?

Elevated tee and/or elevated green, respectively?
 
Not really.
 
Don't they normally make two of the Par 5's into par 4's for the U.S. Open? The 517 yard hole is probably lower handicap hole perhaps?
 
I've got to say... I'm a big fan of Comeback John (clothes included). He's got to have one out of control part of his life. In this case crazy clothes are better than spending the night in the clink.

couldn't agree more. clothes should fit the persons personality more than their physique sometimes. I love that JD is rocking the loud fashions.

Congrats CCR. Hope you see a great finish!

Man, you are going to have a good time.
 
thanks kids...Im sure I will manage to somehow have fun. I already told the woman that if it goes to a playoff we are spending the night. I feel a repeat either way...!
 
I wish I would of gone last year. It was so close and I was so lazy.
 
DirecTV is again doing its expanded coverage of U.S. Open, including following one "Marquee Group" for all 18 holes, and coverage of all groups playing a featured hole.

Coverage will be on channels 701-705 and will be in HD.

More information: http://www.directv.com/usopengolf

For those without DirecTV, I believe the additional broadcasts will also be streamed live on USOpen.com
 
almost as good as being there!
