One of my favorite all time quotes is "The purpose of the US Open is to determine the best golfer in the world, not the best Jeff Maggert in the world". I suspect Pinehurst Deux will be all tricked out-- par 70 with 2 par 5s playing as 4s. Maybe 90+ degrees and 100% humidity. If they can get the greens as slick as a bowling lane they really dont need much rough. If it's hot AND dry +2 or +3 could win it.
