According to the link below, the top three ranked players in the world (Woods, Mickelson and Scott) will be paired the first two rounds of the U.S.Open next week. I believe that they will also televise the Saturday and Sunday rounds in prime time on the East coast.

I think Tiger may make the cut, but I don't expect too much more. Wasn't yesterday his first full round and even then he carted it?

First off let me say that you should never, ever underestimate Tiger Woods. He is almost superhuman. However, realistically speaking, do you really think he can compete for the win given that he has played one round of golf in the last two months?
Maybe if it was a regular tour event, but we are talking about the US Open. I expect him to make the cut but that's about it.
I'll start a poll and see how everyone thinks Tiger will fare.

Tiger Tiger Tiger Tiger Phil Tiger. Tiger Tiger, Phil Tiger Tiger Tiger Tiger Tiger. Phil Tiger Tiger? Tiger Tiger Phil Tiger Tiger Tiger!
Shocking fact of the day: 154 golfers at this year's U.S. Open will be neither Tiger Woods nor Phil Mickelson.
