US Open Round 1 Thoughts

The web feed at US Open.com has experienced some severe difficulties today. Actually, the whole website has been problematic with real time scoring. Hopefully the kinks will be worked out, or everyone will be laughing about teaming up with IBM for the website.

Scoring should be a lot better than it has been today. Right now, Kevin Streelman - who had a great time playing with Woods in the Buick Invitational - leads the tournament at -4. I am predicting that is the winning score. In recent memory, though, the winning score at a US Open never goes lower than the first round leader's score. Maybe -4 could win, but I would bet -2 at this point.

More to come later...
