Pinehurst No. 2 alert: U.S. Open the one major Retief Goosen can win
Wednesday June 15, 2005 | 14:38:25 117 words, 4194 views
If this was Masters, British Open or PGA Championship week, Retief Goosen would have as much chance of winning as Rory Sabbatini does of collecting a Miss Manners trophy. Contending? Sure. Winning? No way. Goosen just does not have the game to win tournaments where the scores are going to go low. But because this is U.S. Open week, Goosen vaults into one of the favorites’ roles. No golfer relies on those funloving USGA groundskeepers to create their legacy more than Goosen. For more on Goosen, being a one major golfer, check out this WorldGolf.com story. For more on what the USGA’s done to Pinehurst, check out this story from National Golf Editor Tim McDonald.

I'd tend to agree with Baldwin. But remember: the U.S. Open is widely considered the most challenging of the four majors; if Goosen wins three of four of them before he's through, he's GOT to be recognized as a great one (even by U.S. media types infatuated with the over-rated likes of Phil Mickelson and Davis Love III).
By the way, what the hell ever happened to Mike Weir? You can bitch all you want about being overlooked by the press, Mikey boy, but the proof is in the puttin' - and your 'puttin''sucks these days. Leave a comment: |
