Jordan Spieth
Young Tex has turned into The Gang That Couldn’t Shoot Straight with his driver. That’s not gonna work at Oakmont, where the rough is deeper than Philosophy 303 at Bryn Mawr.
Jason Day
An Aussie hasn’t won the U.S. Open since Greg Norman shot… no, wait. The last Aussie winner was Geoff Ogilvy in 2006 at Winged Foot, where Phil Mickelson and Colin Montgomerie conspired to hand it to him. Monty’s not playing. Therefore, Day can’t win.
Rory McIlroy
Oakmont is the hardest Open track and Rory’s majors have come at most of the major sites with easy scoring conditions—Congressional, the Ocean Course, Valhalla and Royal Liverpool. Oakmont might be easier with soft greens, due to forecast rain, but it’ll never be easy. Sorry, Rors.
Danny Willett
Who wins the Masters and the U.S. Open the same year? Only six players, among them Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Arnold Palmer and Ben Hogan. Pretty sure Dan-O isn’t them. Nice player, though.
Bubba Watson
The Open is about discipline, patience, strategy—OMG Bubba just dropped an L-wedge shot onto the back of a dump truck going by on the Pennsylvania Turnpike! Never mind.
Phil Mickelson
Bad karma haunts Phil after whining about how the big mean rough hurt his widdle wrist in ’07. Awww.
Jim Furyk
He coulda-shoulda won the ’07 Open here and he’s originally a Pittsburgh yinzer-guy who loves da Stillers. Oakmont doesn’t do encores.
