JoePa's U.S. Open Championship
HUNTER MAHAN 22/1 to win outright - Mahan is having a solid season with nine (9) Top 16s on the season with a T6th at The Players, T10th at Crowne Plaza, and T13th at The Memorial in his last three starts and his best season finish at 2nd place at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. He likes Congressional as evidenced by his tournament record share 62 on the Blue Course in the 2009 AT&T National. He has a total of seven (7) Top 10s in 14 starts on the year, is 16th in driving and 5th in GIR. He's also listed with a lot less value in place betting with 11/5 odds at making the Top 10 and 5/1 odds for a Top 5 finish.
MATT KUCHAR 25/1 to win outright - Kuchar finished with a T6th in the 2010 U.S. Open and has eight (8) Top 10s in 2011, has made 14 of 14 cuts on the year, and had a season best T2nd at The Memorial just two weeks ago. He ranks 16th in fairways hit, 12th in GIR, 31st overall in putting and 2nd in bogey avoidance on tour. He is has been near the top of the leader board and that is reflected by his odds of 5/2 to finish in the Top 10 and 5/1 odds of a Top 5 finish.
KJ CHOI 33/1 to win outright - Choi quietly goes about his business on the course without much fanfare for this soft-spoken South Korean, who has chosen to win fans by interacting with them and enjoying their cheers of encouragement. He ranks 29th on tour in all-around stats, 9th in scrambling, T19th in bogey avoidance, 17th in scoring average, his GIR is 65%, driving accuracy is 62%, scrambling 65%, 6th in sand saves at 63%, and is 7th in the FedEx standings. He won at Congressional in 2007 at the AT&T National so he knows his way around the course. Choi has a win at The Players this year, to go along with a T8th at The Masters, T7th at the Northern Trust, T6th at the Arnie Palmer, and T3rd at the Zurich Classic. Currently he's valued at 3/1 for a Top 10 finish and 13/2 for a Top 5.
FREDRIK JACOBSON 100/1 to win outright, 9/1 to finish Top 10, 20/1 to finish Top 5 - Jacobson is one of the better putters on tour and one of those sneaky guys who manages to find a higher spot on the leader board when the tournament comes to a close. He's made 13 cuts in 16 starts this year and has two (2) Top 10s to show for it with a T5th in the Valero Texas Open and a T9th at the Arnie Palmer to go along with six (6) Top 25 finishes on the year. He currently ranks 45th in the FedEx standings, 14th in scoring average, 26th in strokes gained putting and 9th in 3-putt avoidance. He failed to make the cut in his last two U.S. Open events in 2008 and 2004 but did finish T5th in 2003. In 2010 he made 18 of 24 cuts to go with three top-10s and played in the first three playoff events for the FedEx Cup. His best round of the year was a 65 last week in the second round of the St. Jude Classic.
