Are you excited about it? You should be.

Unfortunately, since that fateful day in November of 2009, everyone thinks that golf has slipped a bit or has become not as relevant in the sports world then as it once was when Eldrick was roaming the fairways of the Tour on a somewhat regular basis

Among the US Open records the 22-year-old from Northern Ireland set included the lowest score after 36 rounds, the lowest score after 54 and the lowest total score – a mark he shattered by four strokes.
