The US Open at Torrey Pines 2008, San Diego, CA.
Finally I will see in High Definition what I have only seen previously on Playstation 2's Tiger Woods 2003! The real course at Torrey Pines.
As for those of you who live near the course, you lucky lucky ba...
...people.
The US Open will be hosted at the South Course of Torrey Pines (courtesy of Torrey Pines' official website):
This is what the players will be faced with right from the start. Here is the layout of the first hole:
Easy no? I'm completely sure of my ability to play this hole with no problems... as long as it's on Playstation!
It would be truly amazing to be there to watch the world's #1, #2 and #3 golfers all in the same championship. According to PGA's website, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and Adam Scott will be playing together in the same group on the Thursday and Friday.
My pick? I would actually love Tiger to win it but to see an Australian win the US Open would be a treat! Adam Scott is yet to smash through that glass ceiling. And let's not forget Phil Mickelson and Trevor Immelman and all the other incredible players in the field.
Most of the time I'm just happy to be watching golf, regardless who wins. But.. GO TIGER!!!

If you are without a HD set top box, perhaps now would be a good time to purchase one. In the magic that is High Definition TV you can almost see the players' eyebrow hairs blowing in the breeze.
