U.S. Open

Here i am, 45 minutes away from Pinehurst, but I'm flying home tomorrow morning, so I won't get to go to the tournament. I found out late last night that my son-in-law, who works for IBM, (who provides certain computer services for the PGA and USGA), has work friends offering him tickets for tomorrow.

On Facebook, there's a lot of the talk about whether a LIV player could win, mostly people thinking DeChambeau would be most likely. I really don't care one way or the other.

Hi Dennis ... You need to work on your timing! - I'm referring to you leaving Pinehurst when the US Open is on & worse still, with free tickets available!
As to who wins? - Anyone from Europe, as long as they aren't LIV & failing that anyone, as long as they aren't LIV

Would love to go to US Open, maybe one day. Would love to see Bryson win… anyone who finishes above Scottie likely to get the W

What makes it worse is, we were originally going home Friday, because we thought our son was staying until then. (We were here for our grandson's high school graduation last Saturday) When we heard Adam was leaving Tuesday, we changed our plans. Now, as it's turned out, his flight out got canceled due to extreme weather in Charlotte, NC, where he had to make a connection. We are now teasing him that you spend your whole life doing everything to satisfy your children, but then all they do is stab you in the back. ;-)

As I sat here quietly this morning, my grandson and son-in-law left for Pinehurst. I guess the one redeeming thing is, IF we get home tonight like we're supposed to, weather in Miami permitting, I'll be able to see all 4 rounds of the tournament on television.

Due to insane storms in Miami, I'm still in Raleigh, 45 minutes from Pinehurst, with no ticket to the U.S. Open, but worse yet, no way to watch it on tv, because my daughter's house doesn't get USA or Peacock networks. I get USA through my cable subscription and was able to log into that yesterday, but today, it's on Peacock and I only get that on my Amazon Firestick, which I can't log into remotely.

I told my wife, being this close, maybe I'll just go up on the roof and look west to see the tournament. If I can't, at least it'll be a convenient place to throw myself off and...
