Another major week this week. Pebble Beach will be a welcome treat after several years of questionable courses and set ups. There are so many big names in good form right now it should be fun to watch. I'm going to go with DJ or Spieth. I also like Snedeker as a sleeper. Who are yall liking?

I think DJ gets it done. Xander and Koepka wil likely be in the mix, in my opinion.

After what Mcllroy did last weekend I would think he'd be a big favorite. Golf being a momentum sport.

Brooks Koepka 13-2
Dustin Johnson 7-1
Tiger Woods 10-1
Jordan Spieth 14-1
Rory McIlroy 16-1
Patrick Cantlay 16-1
Justin Rose 18-1
Rickie Fowler 20-1
Justin Thomas 25-1
Jon Rahm 25-1
Jason Day 25-1
Xander Schauffele 25-1
Tommy Fleetwood 25-1
Francesco Molinari 30-1
Phil Mickelson 30-1
Adam Scott 30-1
Tony Finau 30-1
Hideki Matsuyama 30-1

Thanks! I'll be pulling for Thomas and Speith.

Phil has won 5 of his 44 tourney wins at Pebble Beach (including one just 4 months ago).

Might be one of his last good chances at a major not at Augusta.

Rory has been awful at PB in the past. 2 MC's

and missed the last 3 cuts in US Opens in general.

5 missed cuts, 5 made cuts (1 win) in 10 career US Opens.

Justin Thomas

Hope his wrist is back to fully healthy.

Rooting for him.

Tiger...ideally it would be a Father's Day final pairing of Woods and Mickelson with Tiger lifting the trophy in the end and reminding Phil once and for all who his daddy is.

Phil wining a US Open at pebble would top tiger winning the masters. I’d like to see it.

Dr. B

I agree. Tiger all the way!

Latest odds:

Brooks Koepka 9/1
Dustin Johnson 9/1
Rory McIlroy 9/1
Tiger Woods 10/1
Jordan Spieth 16/1
Patrick Cantlay 16/1
Rickie Fowler 22/1
Jon Rahm 28/1
Justin Rose 28/1
Xander Schauffele 28/1
Jason Day 30/1
Justin Thomas 30/1

Xander is the best value on that board. He can flat out play.

I cut it off before I got down to him, but Tommy Fleetwood is 35-1. Another great value. His game is a good fit for PB

Going with Rose.

Koepka has his foot on the gas and on the field... again

Kopeka slowed down, finally. Looks like it will be a cramped leaderboard going into tomorrow.

Well they kinda tore Pebble Beach apart today. I hope they firm up and slicken up the greens over the next 3 days. I always like to see the pros struggle and complain at the US Open. Scores today look more like the John Deere Classic

40 players even or better. Heck of a leaderboard.

My fantasy pool team , picking 5. Lowest aggregate score.

Koepka, Rose, Ousty, Mcillroy and Speith.

If Dadgum Speith steps it up I maybe getting a new scope.

Speith's scrambling on the course because he's scrambling between his ears.

The course is definitely playing tougher today. Anything even or better is a good round today.

Wish the wind was blowing 30.

The 4 under that Furyk shot today was a great round in those conditions. I'm guessing, unless they get some rain, that the winning score will be around where the current leaders are.

Gary Woodland has it at 4 under on the round too and isn't done yet

Woodland taps in another birdie to go 5 under on the round and take the lead

Woodland rolls in about a 45 footer on his 18th hole for birdie. Another 65 today in the US Open and a 2 shot lead for him.

I dont see any way it won't take double digits in the red to win unless the usga tricks the course out. I really dont know that they can at this point with the weather. It's like Erin Hills all over again. Soft fairways and greens, no wind, and no speed on the greens.

The US open is supposed to be the "toughest test in golf" and thus far, it looks like any average PGA tournament.

Soft conditions and lack of wind have made the course gettable. I have no idea what will be the winning number but I wouldn't be shocked to see someone shoot 5 or 6 under and chase the leaders down. If Rose finds fairways he'll be hard to beat.

Koepka coming out the gates wide open. This is gonna be fun to watch!

Yep...Koepka is charging. 4 birdies in the first 5 holes.

No doubt but Woodland has it going, too. One hiccup from any of the top 4 or 5 could change everything. While I was typing BK rolled in another birdie. That guy is a monster.

Koepka has hit an obstacle on 8...still has a putt for bogey.

They're just plodding along. All Woodland has to do is play evenly, not screw up and unless Rose or Koepka do something spectacular he'll win.

This is about the most unenthusiastic Open that I can remember. It sounds like a Friday afternoon at the John Deere Classic.

I think Woodland will win from here. He hasn't panicked and keeps recovering from the bad shots. Brooks has started making mistakes after every birdie.

Woodland is a solid player and, if he wins, good for him.

Woodland and Koepka have both hit two of the best recovery shots onto the green that I doubt 2 other players in the world could have hit. A bunch of mistakes being made by both, though.

Whos the dumbass in the crowd that yells get in the hole as loud as he can as soon as contact is made with the ball ? Extremely annoying. Had to mute sound just to watch a few minutes of it. Think Id rather hear Beth Mowins call an awburn game.

sounds like something id do if i got drug to a golf tournament

Wheels may be falling off Woodland...

Koepka may squeeze the trophy for the third year in a row.

He's scrambling for sure. It seems the back side is playing way more difficult than the first 3 days. There were a bunch of guys who tore the front up only to give shots back on the final 9 holes. Makes for good entertainment in my opinion.

The biggest roar I've heard today was when Tiger birdied 18 to finish 11 back (at the time).

Woodland has put it in an awful spot on 17. If Koepka can birdie 18 it will be an interesting finish.

Woodland hit a hell of a chip on 17 to save par.

Yep. He deserves to win.

Woodland seems like a class guy. I really like the red white and blue outfit with the American Flag golf shoes. 👍

For the first time in 2 years it looked like the pressure finally got to Koepka. He had plenty of chances down the stretch and blew all of them.

Hell of a pressure shot for Woodland on 17.
Seems to be a good guy.

Koepka and Rose gagged this one away. Woodland's chip on the 17 green? Doggone, man. Ice blood right there. He'll be a good champion.

X2, I was glad to see him win. By all accounts he seems to be a good guy all around. He was pretty stoic today. I'm guessing that may not be his last major

That chip from basically on the green to another part of the green was amazing. 40 footer at the end was icing on the cake.

This tells me all I need to know about the guy. He’s a good one.

Very cool...thanks for sharing

What a fine young man. Congratulations to him!

Did y’all hear the fan in the gallery yell War Eagle when he hit his tee shot at 17? I kept rewinding it to make sure I wasn’t hearing things. Yelled it plain as day.

Dr. B

It was probably Dufners dumbarse. He was done pretty early today. I cant believe he actually made the cut

Woodland does seem like a good guy. I’d have been ok seeing Koepka win again too. Really all I was wanting was to see an American win. Can’t stand to see the Euro’s win. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

We heard that. Wasn't sure if that's what was said.

The USGA and PGA should eject anyone who screams idiotic crap.

I also cracked up when Woodland and Rose hit their tee shots at #6. As Woodland hit, somebody yelled "Yahtzee!" as loud and he could! When Rose hit it, the same guy yells "Krakatoa!" Made me laugh at the originality!

Dr. B

You can quickly tell how good of a guy someone is by how many of the other pros come back out to congratulate, hug, high five them after winning.

Yep. The 'neck element has definitely permeated golf now.

They are just attention whores. I was at the Masters a few years ago and only heard one dumb ass yell "mashed potatoes" on the weekend but I seriously thought it might be worth missing the tournament and the bail money if I just slapped the dog crap out of him.

Augusta national won't put up with any stupid shucks from the gallery. Do that and you're a goner, permanently, as in losing your tickets forever.

I wish 3-4 people would just be the holy dogshit out of anyone who yells like that at any tournament other than the Phoenix Open, and no one else standing around would see anything.

"Nah, was watching golf, man. I didn't see anything."

"Snitches get stiches. Didn't see chit."

"Didn't see nothing but Mrs. Crane over there. She's a little monkey woman. She's lean, mean and not too far in between."

"Was looking for the beer stand. Someone got beat up?"
