I first want to start by saying Happy Fathers Day to my dad. A man who has always been there for me and will do anything for his family. He is truly a great man. The best memories I have with him are on the golf course and I can’t wait to get over to his house today to talk about the Saturday happenings in the US Open and what we think will happen today. The best being in 2008 for Fathers Day. We were in San Diego for the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines when Tiger forced a Monday playoff with Rocco Mediate. You can’t get any better than that.
I think it is going to be another super day at Pebble Beach. I don’t think Graeme McDowell will be in contention at the end of the day. As well as Dustin Johnson has played and as well as he played under pressure yesterday, I think he will drop back a bit. Do I think Tiger can shoot another round in the 60’s? Well we all know he CAN do it. But I don’t know if he is there yet. But I am rooting for Tiger Woods and I want to see him win it. What about Phil? Phil will need to shoot a round in the 60’s as well. I still think 3 or 4-under will win it. So that means a 67 by Phil and a 68 or 69 by Tiger.
How great would it be to see Phil and Tiger in a Monday playoff? I would definitely take off work for that tomorrow… Either way, it should be magical.
