The 111th US Open commences at the Congressional Country Club on Thursday – only the third time the Major has headed to Maryland. In a field missing Tiger Woods, Lee Westwood is favourite to lift the trophy – although there will be stiff competition from Luke Donald, Phil Michelson and Rory McIlory.
The second major of 2011 returns to the Blue Course at Congressional for the first time since 1997. As you’d expect from a U.S. Open track, hitting fairways, scrambling and avoiding bogeys are crucial. A score around even par always has a chance to win.
The favorite for this year’s United States Open championship is – surprise, Tiger Woods at +125 but does that make him a lock to win this weekend’s prestigious major tournament?
