After last tournament's poor performance (4 players missed the cut in my picks at the FedEx St. Jude Classic), I am happy with my picks in the U.S. Open. Dustin Johnson won last week at the FedEx St. Jude Classic, but couldn't muster the cut line in the U.S. Open. I picked him this week (as did Bolton), and he didn't cut it. The interesting thing is that I picked Zach (Johnson) in the FedEx St. Jude Classic (as did Bolton) and he did make the cut this week in the U.S. Open. It is funny how things roll. In any event, I was close to picking a winner in the U.S. Open as Furyk was leading the tournament with only 2 holes to go before he fall back to 4th.
