Hey AG
There have been a few consistent players of late to follow in the US OPen but with the Tiger there I would suggest cauion wth any bets.
A few I like would include Paul Casey, Camillo Villegas, Robert Karlsson and of course Geoff Ogilvy has been warming up for a big week. Shot a 63 2 tournaments ago in tough conditions so I think he will be the man to challenge Tiger.
A few roughies for you Ian Poulter, Kenny Perry and old Vijay Singh.
Let me know what your thoughts are on the US Open.

Stuey Appleby has been in great touch recently in the major championships -At $151 the win ,$15 top 10, $5 top 25 - I think he represents super value. No matter what form he has leading up to recent majors, he always seem to be around the mark. Great mental strength and prepares for the majors better than anyone.

I generally pick 6-10 guys with $5 on each to win the six i have this year are
S.Garcia @ $41
C.Villegas $51
R.Allenby @ $61
R.Sabbatini @ $101
B.Weekley @ $126
J.Nitties @ $251
R.Barnes @ $1001
Have gone for Garcia as his always a threat if his putter is on.
Camillo Villegas is a huge talent and have a felling he may due for a real breakout victory.
Allenby & Sabbatini have been in real good form in the last couple of tournaments so hope they can continue.
Weekley is a danger on a course which apparentley will suit the big hitters, which he certainly is.
Nitties, i have backed since he began playing in Australia, so would hate to see him win and me not be on him especially at big odds. Has improved dramatically this season.
Barnes, i always like to have someone at massive odds for the what if factor (we could all do with an extra $5000) To be honesty he was the only one at those odds that i have really heard of performing well at any stage.

Start of the first round has been delayed due to rain, they expect play to commence in around 3 hours. Though there is already talk they may struggle to get a result as rain is expected for the next three days.

Barnes is now -4 one stroke of the lead mid 2nd round, but i very much doubt that he will be able to continue this form for the rest of his round let alone the rest of the open

End of second day now, with half the pack started their second round the leader is
Lucas Glover -6
Ricky Barnes -5
Adam Scott is the best of the Aussies at 2 under while Tiger Woods has only played one round and is +4
Ricky Barnes has gone from 1000-1 into 34-1 while the Tiger is now paying $6, i wouldn't rule him out just yet especially if the course plays the same as it did today with the very soft greens.

Alright the second has just been completed, the cut has been made and im down to 5 players left
Leading is Ricky Barnes @ -8 surely he can't win it
Hunter Mahon @ -1 i really like his chances here i think his in with a real show.
Sergio Garcia @ E has been fairly inconsistent but is still at even does have the game to make up 7 shots
Camillo Villegas @ +2 has been disapointing despite getting of to a great start in round 1, no chance
K.J Choi @ +4 always makes the cuts but is just making up the numbers here.
