Marquee Pairing for next week's US Open

Yep, you heard it hear first: Tiger Woods, Rory Mcilroy and Stevie Williams.

The race continues toward 19 majors for both Tiger and Stevie. Both have 14 major wins under their belts but Tiger has the advantage of being much younger. Stevie is getting into his twilight years and in a few years will be eligible for the senior tour. Still, though, Stevie has the advantage of having won the first major of the year at Augusta and heads into the US Open brimming with confidence.

Rory no doubt will play second fiddle in this match of the ages. He's still getting used to Nike equipment and clothing and hasn't shown any of the flare from last year.

Stevie is undoubtedly still fuming over the complete meltdown from his guy on the bag at last year's British Open. Hopefully he'll keep his man from thinking and tell him exactly what to do throughout the round. One can only hope.

As long as Stevie is forced to work with that stiff Adam Scott he'll be vulnerable to the choke. But it isn't just age that factors it's also the extent to which one sees cheap, trampy women with huge bolt-ons as walking pussies.

Rory: M/C.
Tiger: M/C
Scott: T-58
Webb Simpson: T-61
14 Year Old Chinese Boy (Chin? Wang?): M/C
Luke Donald: M/C
Boo: T-5
Johnny Miller: #1 Announcer
Silly Phil: Damned if he might not win it.

Why do they call it a pairing when there are 3 of them.

Because, of the three, only two are now considered marquee players...Woods and Stevie.

The think that the prime paring, to substitute a homophone, will be done by the course itself. My cousin who still lives up in that 'hood just emailed me saying that he was there at today's practice round and that the course has gotten about as much rain water as it can stand. While this could make the greens very soft, it also made the rough extremely gnarly and with the fairways tucked in, its going to be a real bear.
