Winged Foot Golf Club just outside New York City in Westchester County, NY was the site of Phil Mickelson's most famous collapse. In the 2006 U.S. Open, Phil was in the final group and had a 1 shot lead going into the 72nd hole. He missed the fairway leading to a double bogey and gifted Geoff Ogilvy his only major. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6d-10pjcEE  https://www.usopen.com/ Air Times (ET) Thursday 7:30am-2pm Golf Channel 2-5pm NBC 5-7pm Peacock Friday 7:30-9:30am Peacock 9:30am-4pm Golf Channel 4-7pm NBC Saturday 9-11am Peacock 11am-7:30pm NBC Sunday 8-10am Peacock 10am-12pm Golf Channel 12-6pm NBC Marquee Tee Times (Thursday ET) 1 8:07 AM Collin Morikawa Justin Thomas Tiger Woods 10 8:07 AM* Rory McIlroy Adam Scott Justin Rose 1 1:16 PM Bryson DeChambeau Dustin Johnson Tony Finau 1 1:27 PM Phil Mickelson Paul Casey Jon Rahm Odds (Ladbrokes as of 8am ET Monday) Dustin Johnson 15/2 Jon Rahm 10/1 Justin Thomas 14/1 Rory McIlroy 14/1 Xander Schauffele 16/1 Collin Morikawa 18/1 Bryson DeChambeau 20/1 Webb Simpson 25/1 Daniel Berger 28/1 Hideki Matsuyama 28/1 Patrick Cantlay 28/1 Tony Finau 28/1 Betting Pool Pick an available player who isn't one of the top 10 betting favorites.

I wouldn't be surprised if the tournament winner was one of the top 4 favorites: DJ, Rahm, JT, and Rory. Also you can pick Tiger for the pool but I didn't because he missed the cut here in 2006 and hasn't played great lately.

Phil poking fun at himself in the Callaway commercials about his 2006 debacle at this course is pretty funny, I’m surprised they got him to do that. The weather should be just about perfect. I’m a couple hours further upstate than Winged Foot and I’m probably playing every day for the next week or more.

The US Open is the only major I ever watch, I love watching these top golfers struggle. That and the Open Championship when the weather gets lovely. It tests different interstiting things then like the FedEx Cup stuff.

I'm pretty indifferent to Reed and his dumb shenanigans he gets up to, but dunking on him like this will always be funny to me.

Only 5 people were under par for the tournament. But this was the FedEx Cup event sandwiched between DJ's -30 at the Northern Trust and the Tour Championship where DJ shot -11 and Schauffele shot -15 so it's definitely not typical but you could tell it was set up like a typical US Open and it was great.

The closest comparable tournament we’ve had is the BMW Championship which players said was set up like a US Open. I wouldn’t be surprised if one of the top 25 finishers won here. https://twitter.com/golf_com/status/1305570834120146944?s=21 Conveniently, that includes top 4 betting favorites. Hitting the fairway will be at a premium, so it’s conceivable that if Tiger takes less than driver off the tee, he could perform well since he’s the best iron player of all time and still says “5 iron down I’ll take on anyone.” He finished T51 at BMW but that wasn’t as important to him.

I'm no fan of the par or worse to win a tournament. Put the best golfers on a muni, the best golfer still wins, even if it's at -45. On the contrary, courses made crazy penal don't test the best golfer, they test who can play a certain type of conservative golf, not the best golf. Yeah, penal rough makes fairways more valuable, but taking away a long players advantage isn't rewarding a better golfer. Putting holes in pin locations that will not hold an approach, or greens so fast that putts are all lag putts? Tougher rougher, faster greens, tough pin locations all make sense. The US Open has been stupid about it in the last ten years.

What odds would someone have to give you to bet Phil to win? I'm not forking over a dollar until we're approaching like +50000. https://twitter.com/darrenrovell/status/1306375784437886982 Anno fucked around with this message at 01:52 on Sep 17, 2020 |

You have until the first tee time at 6:50am to get your pick in for the pool or if you want to change it! This is the best overview of the course I’ve seen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWl3FJN4ITg The NBC USGA music is the best. GET HYPE!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3jZeu58l-A

I could’ve gotten a winning score of -1 or higher at -145. Should’ve backed up the truck on that.
