    I like Snedeker. Not sure Dufner can get it done, though I think he'll be in the mix on Sunday. PGA always seems to have somebody who comes out of nowhere to contend. Not sure if Mahan's mind will be on it with the new baby and everything. Two guys who are due; Kuchar and Graeme McDowell.

    Not if Mickelson, Rose or Scott win the PGA. Two majors trumps Tiger easily.

    Sure. Who's one player you take instead of him to win? Mickelson, is pretty much it.

    That being said: Tiger v. the Field .. I'll take the field allllllllllllllllll day and double down Sunday afternoon.

    The field is always the bet in golf. Zach Johnson is playing really well, but you have to be kind of long at Oak Hill.

    In Vegas, the field bet is not very good simply because they post odds on about half the field. Only time i consider the field bet is at the British Open. I actually won on a field bet there when Paul Lawrie won. Now, Tiger vs. the field, always take the field.

    It *should* be Tiger. But the PGA almost always produces an out-of-the-blue winner.

    Meanwhile, the USGA dicked the PGA with the announcement today of the new rights broadcaster in two years. Payback for the PGA's defiant stand in favor of the anchored putter?

    Still ... Fox? Doing the U.S. Open? Seriously. It has joke written all over it. But on a happier note ... No more Berman on the U.S. Open.

    British bookmaker William Hill said earlier this week a bettor placed a win wager of £30,000 (about $45,000) on Tiger at odds of 9-to-2.

    Who's gonna be in that booth? Presumably not Johnny Miller, as NBC still has plenty of PGA Tour golf including The Players Championship. Count me as very skeptical too.

    Doesn't one major trump Tiger's year?
