I think Annika is better conditioned, mentally and physically, and will prevail. Hurst won't keep making as many putts as she has so far to stay in it.

I was very impressed by three people's rounds today: Wie, Hurst, and Prammanasudh. The last one of the three hit FIVE greens all day and took only 23 (I think) putts. Wow. Horrible play, but great short game.

And Wie didn't fare much better on the hitting greens thing, either, missing greens with wedges in her hand several times. Poor showing there, great with the putter. She can't get it all together.

-2 for Hurst speaks for itself.

First one for Hurst!

I feel that Hurst deserves this one. Sorenstam wins too much.

Going back to reality...I believe Hurst is more calm. Although Sorenstam has a tremendous amount of patience, Hurst seems wiser in my opinion.

GO HURST!!

In The Bag:

Irons: Mizuno MP-60 (Dynamic Gold) Gap Wedge: Titleist Vokey SM Oilcan (Dynamic Gold) Sand Wedge: Cleveland Tour Action (Dynam. G) Putter:...

Yeah, I like Sorenstam, but I may jump on the Hurst Train tomorrow. The announcers were getting on my nerves... as if Hurst was just a speed bump on Annika's path to reclaiming her third US Open.

When I have no vested interest in the race (read: "no money riding on it anymore because my horse Wie lost"), I tend to pull for the underdog, anyway.

Dear lord I hope Annie wins, watching Hurst play made me vomit in my mouth just a little bit. The woman can obviously play, but watching it isn't pretty.

I think Annika is going to take it. Like someone said earlier I dont think that Hurst is going to be making those putts that she was making yesterday, and if she keeps it in the rough like she did yesterday she will have a tough time. Look for Annika to win.

I'm going to go out on a limb (they're on 17) and go with Sorenstam. I know, I know. Call me crazy.

Hurst apparently equals speed bump. My bad.

A large bump at that...
