The Black Beast Awaits

The day has arrived!
Bethpage Black is the venue for the 109th US Open Championship. 156 players lay in wait with a chance to conquer what has become known as the “beast” of all golf courses. My mind is not on the balance sheet reports that lay on my desk, nor is it on my plans for the sunny weekend ahead. I think only of catapulting my ass out of this building at 3pm and planting it in front of a television showing channel 402.

Will the Tiger defend his title against the likes of Mickelson, Ogilvy, Furyk and co, or is it even possible that the aging Maori boy from Hawera, Michael Campbell can find some elusive form to push forward and grab his second US Open title? It is likely that Bethpage Black will be full of surprises to which outcomes can not be predicted. This is going to be friggin brilliant!

What sort of sporting event would it be without the odd bet though! So here we go………..Zacka’s bets for the 109th US Open Golf Tournament are as follows:

£1.00 each way on Steve Stricker @ 33/1

£1.00 each way on Camilo Villegas @ 46/1

£1.00 each way on Ian Poulter @ 67/1

£1.00 each way on Bubba Watson @ 151/1

And of course my patriotic bet goes to Michael Campbell, £1.00 each way @ a monstrous 501/1
