2015 GRAND SLAM CONTEST - THE U.S. OPEN - NoVa WINS!

I'm sure most know, but Speith's caddy is from the Pacific NW and used to work Chambers Bay all the time. I assume that he gives him a huge leg up.

I think it helps a bit, but he never caddied it in conditions remotely resembling what they are playing in now with the exception of the 2010 Amateur.
 
If Bubba did like the course, I'm not sure he's going to anymore after the first hole. About to make at least double after he bombed a drive in the fairway.

Any idea on how close that resembles what it's like today?

It was harder back then. Bone dry August weather. Course was setup poorly and scoring average was close to 80.

Bubba is done. #prayfortedscott
 
So far I've seen wedges and short irons stopping quickly if they fly onto the green. I think the USGA dumped water on the course last night to be safe. Expect some low scores today and by Sunday it's going to be insanely firm.
 
He's quietly having his best year. If a career journeyman is gonna pull a Mike Donald this week, it's Hoffman.

Absolutely, his name seems to be on a lot of leaderboards this year, even though he hasn't won this year.
 
This looks so much like a British Open. Rory just teed off wearing a jacket, the brown fairways, the heather off the fairways, no trees in sight, odd for a US Open. Here's hoping it ends up being an exciting tournament and not a run away like Kaymer's win last year.
 
I haven't seen any updates, Ill post my team just for fun. Feel free to include me in the scoring. I can pretty much guarantee I won't win:

8 - Speith
33 - Walker
80 - Haas
80 - Simpson
100 - Molinari
100 - Woodland

401 Total Score
 
Anyone want to step up to volunteer to host the scoring spreadsheet, so everyone can follow along?!
 
Completely caught off guard by this revelation, since I thought the contest was off. I threw together a team in about 5 minutes. I'm pretty sure it won't be accepted, so just for the hell of it:

Spieth
Day
Na
Woodland
Hoffman
Holmes
 
Rory McIlroy - 7
Jordan Spieth - 8
Jim Furyk - 33
J.B. Holmes - 66
Thongchai Jaidee - 150

Dustin Johnson - 18
Henrik Stenson - 25
Jimmy Walker - 33
Brooks Koepka - 50
Brendon Todd - 125

Total = 401

Nobody wants to host the spreadsheet?

Question: If only four of my players make the cut, and one of them subsequently withdraws, do I just play with three?
