Dan, if Romero comes in third, how does Villegas get low S. American honors?

Villegas isn't from Argentina.  The third question is who will be low Argentine?

Westwood to win, but would he have won if Tiger was playing blah, blah, blah... I'll feel sorry for the guy that does win as he will have this asked of him forever. If not westwood then surely its time for one of the other young English lads to win a big one? Rose would be the dream alternative.

Els top previous major winner

Cabrera top Argentine

Seems to me the questions are fine.  A little cheap of you to try to pass the buck. [At which point I would insert an emoticon, if I did that sort of thing]

Splosh! One of the finest sights in the world: the other man's ball dropping in the water - preferably so that he can see it but cannot quite reach it and has therefore to leave it there, thus rendering himself so mad that he loses the next hole as well.

Matt is actually tutoring ;) us on our word problems and math skills ...

If #1 has the same qualifications as #2, then #1 must be the same golfer as #2

#1.  Justin Leonard
#2.  Justin Leonard or if we go with the next lowest Major winner - Ogilvy
#3:  Romero

Jimenez will beat Austin in a playoff.

VanDevelde will be in the top 10.

Mickelson will miss the cut as his career is clearly finished and everyone including his wife and kids and dog hate him. He will throw himself in front of a train. The bookies will understand and walk away from the gambling debts.

Sergio will finish T27.

Low major winner will be Ben Curtis.

All of the Argentenians will get sick eating at an all you can eat steakhouse and withdraw

Rich Lerner will terrorize us for the next 5 days with his imitation scots' brogue, as Brian Hewitt  tortures us with trite and hackneyed phrases

Looking at the scoring, the weather must be brutal.... Phil M - 79, Vijay 80, Ernie Els 80,   YIKES!!

Any guesses on the cut line? 

David Duval's 73 is looking pretty darn good and Tom Watson is ageless in shooting a 74!
