1) Tiger Woods (probably)

2) Niclas Fasth (very probably - those of a betting persuasion should check out his pretty serious form in the last couple of months)

Tiger
Fasth

I almost wrote in Furyk, but it too hard to bet against Tiger.

1) Ian Poulter (as likely as Cabrera winning at Oakmont)
2) Robert KARLSSON (I'm sure Norway will be displeased)


I expect Mickelson to bomb, though I hope he won't.

First:  I'll take the field against Tiger.

Second: Mickleson if in contention wil do as he did at Winged foot and Loch Lomand, he cannot handle that finish.

Re: THE GAME!
Winner: Els

Low Swede: Stenson

Cheers and all in fun.  We all know Carnoustie will win.  8)
