    On my honor, I have neither looked at the scoreboard nor have I seen any coverage so far. Here are my picks:

    McDowell
    Rose
    Harrington
    Phil
    Westwood

    There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

        Spoiler for Spoiler:
        Damn! I was so close to picking Adam Scott, but I didn't think his game would fit the conditions. And he's the leader in the clubhouse at -4. EDIT: Make that -6.

          Is it just me... or are the ABC/ESPN guys total hacks at golf announcing. Azinger and Strange seems like they would be the last guys on earth I'd like to play golf with. ('cepting Scott VanPelt, although he gets a little flowery at times.)

            ABC is clearly at the bottom of the golf-announcing hierarchy. I rank them as follows:

            1. NBC- Hicks and Miller are a great combo. I wish NBC had more golf.

            2. CBS- Nantz and Faldo are behind NBC's guys, but only slightly.

            3. ABC- Tirico is a Tiger-worshiping whore. I can't stand that guy. Van Pelt is the only guy I like (and you are absolutely right about him getting flowery).

              A Saturday, or especially Sunday, Scott and Tiger pairing would be fun to watch. Has Tiger been grouped with AS, since Stevie started looping for him? It would add a different type of vibe to an already stressul situation.

                How do you rank the majors as far as what is your favorite?

                me:

                1. Master's
                2. British Open
                3. US Open
                4. PGA

                big drop between 3 and 4.

                    Played a quick 9 this morning before work. Was 5 over through 3, but finished birdie, par, par, par, par, par. I had 14 putts, continuing my streak of 7 straight rounds without more than 15 putts per 9 holes. Sadly, I tweaked my hand golfing last week when I held up on the follow through of a really hard chip out from some deep rough. At first it felt like I had fractured a bone in my hand, but a week later it feels more like I tweaked a ligament or something. Still, it is quite painful to swing my long irons and driver ( though I don't notice it on the shorter clubs-less torque I suppose). At any rate, I think I'll probably have to take a few weeks off to let it heal, as it definitely caused me to hit some really poor shots today.

                      I'm pretty much the same as this, except that I prefer Big Break: Ladies Only.

                        I debated putting the ladies only on there. Dang - we could've spent the last two months debating Selanee versus Marcela. (Selanee)

                              Tom Watson is one likeable dude. Impossible not to root for that guy.
