Carnage at Winged Foot

First round of the US Open golf yesterday and what a battering the pros took, only ONE (!) player was under par, 22 finished 10 or more over.

Winner will be a golfer who can keep the ball on the fairway and out of the punishing rough, Jim Furyk is in a group just one off the lead. He won the Open in 2003 and this Mr Reliable of the tour, has the taylormade game for this course. I am going to take a little of the 8.80 on offer.

Serbia and Montenegro will have to be more positive against Argentina, than in their opener, the players were critical of the coach's negative approach in that game and will attack more today.This could play into the south americans hands and with Riquelme pulling the strings, we could see some goals today.

Our favourites, Ivory Coast, will be looking to get back on track with a win today, think they are evenly matched with the Dutch and can win with a little luck in front of goal, odds look fair enough.

Mexico will be looking to secure their place in the next stage with victory over a goal shy looking
Angola, they will not want to need a result in the final match verses Portugal.

2 points Jim Furyk-US Open 8.80 betfair
4 points Argentina-Serbia and Montenegro over 2 goals 1.84 asian line
2 points Ivory Coast 4.70 betfair
4 points Mexico -1 1.92 asian line

Good Luck.
