The US Open in Wisconsin this year is a joke. It is suppose to be a test of the best golfers in the world but it is just a birdie fest. It would be more interesting watching a putt putt tournament. Would not bet against someone winning this fiasco with a score of 30 under par.

Originally posted by Rank outsiderHere is an interesting stat. In the 116 previous US opens, only six players have ever reached 10 under par. Going into today's round we have five players at this joke of a course 10 under par. The USGA should be ashamed of itself. This US Open should be renamed the Little Sisters of the Poor golf tournament. Sad.
Should have taken the bet....

Perhaps they should move the open to this course. I'm hoping the British Open will be a bit more challenging but I doubt it. The PGA championship is the only major that gives these whinny pros even a bit of a challenge.
As a footnote the winning score in the Senior Open was something like 19 under par. These so called majors have no bite in them anymore. Wide fairways, flat greens, no hazards, no rough, par 4's you can drive, might as well just call it putt putt and be done with it.

Oh the Fescue!!! Idiots.
Always love that ball trickling into the water at Augusta after you think they made a centre of the green shot
