The U.S. Open will be held September 17-20 at Winged Foot Golf Club in Mamaroneck, NY. The same rules as usual apply. Here are the basics: Pick six of the golfers from the list below (note that this list is the current projected field -- scratches and additions may occur, so make sure that your entry is not affected before the deadline). Any golfer not listed or added to the field is 150 points. Points must add up to at least 400 or higher. Scoring is determined by the best four of your selections who make the cut. Top 20 plus ties receive Grand Slam points for the season championship. Ties for first place only will be broken by highest point total (of the six selections).

Enter your selections in a PM prior to the first tee time on Thursday morning. Entries or changes made after the deadline will NOT be accepted.

Cool, in. Gonna watch a lot of it but will probably have to turn back and forth with football on Sunday.
 
In. Sent via PM but I'll make my picks open for transparency:

Kevin Na 150
Bubba Watson 125
Phil Mickelson 80
Dustin Johnson 8
Colin Morikawa 18
Webb Simpson 28

Total 409

I’d love to see Phil win the thing, but he hit 1 fairway in the third round of the freaking Safeway Open Saturday. Unless he has the greatest 4 days off the tee of his life, he’ll be lucky to make the cut.
 
15 entries so far.

Looks like Willett is my only hope for having enough players on my team make the cut for me to be around on the weekend. As Dodgers fans said in Brooklyn years ago, wait till next year.

Nah, you still have November. I lost my 2 150 guys. But I hate that it could come down to DeChambeau and Reed. Rory and JT have to keep up in order to have a rooting interest.

I'd forgotten that we still have The Masters (which will be one unlike any other) to come. It will seem very strange keeping up with who may be on a roll during October.
