Rough Talk

Who's afraid of the big, bad rough? Seems like all the professionals playing in the Open are, as well as all the announcers. We can't wait to see those prissy boys hacking and slashing in the jungle just to move their ball into the daylight. Then we can't wait to hear them say how unfair the rough is. Or, were they not fair to themselves by skipping a few more lessons in driving accuracy? Muh-ha-ha. I can't wait!

Phil or Tiger?

Phil or Tiger? Tiger or Phil? Is it an even match? Is there a sleeper player waiting in the wings to snatch it all?

Phil is up for three majors in a row. Tiger is up for a fresh kill.

I say neither of them win. I say someone else creeps in and steals the prize. But who? Hmmm.. Can't wait to find out!

The Golf Blog wonders if David Duval will win the Open. Here, from ESPN, are the world's top 200 players. David is not among them. We'd all love to see him win. He needs his game back first.

But wait....Sports Illustrated's Gary Van Sickle gives David a 90-1 shot at winning. Check out all his odds here.
