I love the US Open. Its one of the best tournies in sports. ANYONE can win, all you have to do is qualify. Its a long shot but at least you have the opportunity. The best part about it is coverage starts at 10am and goes all day!

My buddy Jason and I always have a bet on the major golf tournies in the year. We each pick 10 guys and whomever’s team wins the most money wins the bet, usually a 6-pack or dinner at a fine dining establishment such as CiCi’s Pizza (his favorite).

Although I started out on a huge winning streak (thanks Tiger), I’m in the hole now. Lost the last two, this one is important.

Here are our picks.

jason:
tiger, goosen, scott, donald, harrington, garcia, furyk, villegas, lehman, choi, couples – alt

ev: phil, vijay, els, c campbell, immelman, timmy clark, DL3, oberholser, petterson
ames, shigeki – alt

We each get 10 guys, must pick one Asian, and we get 1 alternate in case someone gets hurt or doesn’t play.

Whose gonna win our bet and Who’s your 2006 US Open Pick?
