Move over Tiger Woods, there's a few new sheriffs in town. Well, we don't actually think that, but Winged Foot is taming Tiger at an alarming rate, as he is +9 through 27 holes.
Once you get past Steve Stricker (who lost his tour card a few years ago and had to resort to only selling his clothing line at Kohl's), you do have some big names that are easily used with the word "leaderboard."
Big Phil Mickelson is two strokes off the lead at even par, and EH! Mike Weir and Vijay Singh finished up their rounds yesterday at +1.
Even par could win this tournament, since it is only getting more difficult. One problem yesterday was that the greens were too slow, something not seen at a U.S. Golf Open probably ever. Leave it to USGA Executive Director, David Fay, to take care of that, he is like The Joker when it comes to fooling professional golfers.
