Final round at Winged Foot .....

Round 4 of the US Open today, on what must be the hardest course most pros have EVER played. The leaders stand at +2, yes, that is over par, if we have normal Sunday tee positions, scoring could go through the roof.

Mickleson is in pole position and is on my short list, alongside Furyk, Singh and Ogilvy. Looking for a little value, I am going to take the Aussie each way, "without" big Phil.

Furyk did not drive the ball too well yesterday and VJ misses too many makeable putts.

Ogilvy is having a fantastic year, currently lies 5th on the money list and already has a win and 2nd place to his name. The victory coming in a very big tournament, the WGC Matchplay, proving that he can handle the pressure, with the eyes of the golfing world upon him .

A steady player, long off the tee, he is one of the very few to have kept a double bogey off his card this week. Think he has the right temperament to deal with whatever the course throws up tonight and is a player ready to move up to the next level.

I expect Ogilvy to go close to winning, but feel that the w/o market is the better option.

2.5 points each way 1/4 123 OGILVY 4.50 w/o MICKLESON Stan James

Good Luck.
