Welcome in, all new Wednesday live chat for this week's US Open. This time is yours. Clearly, I'm in the media center. I'm here at LACC. I'll do my best to kind of limit some of the background noise or anything else that might be happening. I'm working off the laptop, so bear with me. We'll go through as many of these questions as possible and kind of give the best insight

that I can for what I've seen this week.

So let's not waste any more time.

Let's jump right into it.

Brandon says debating two things, Rose or Scott, and then one of Rogers Putnam,

Cole and Hadwin to fill it out.

So a couple of items here.

So first off, this is my site, Rick Rungood.com. Should probably subscribe to it out. So a couple of items here. So first off, this is my site, Rickrungoode.com.

Should probably subscribe to all. Everything you see is going to be from my website right here.

Slightly prefer Justin Rose to Adam Scott. He's just been playing great golf. It's, it's fairly

close. I think it's like 60, 40. You get an experienced golf for a major championship where

things are probably going to be pretty

difficult. I don't mind Adam Scott, but I think Rosie is probably the better option here.

And then as far as the other ones, I probably go one Eric Cole to Andrew Putnam.

You know, what Eric Cole has been up to is pretty unbelievable stuff here.

So you've got the T6 of the Canadian

opened the T24 at the Memorial, but go back further than that. Played well to PGA Championship,

got off to a hot start, didn't fade after kind of getting a bad, not a weather draw, but remember

they delayed play on Thursday. He had to come back out and start on number six, was still able to

kind of bounce back and play well. The T degree metrics are essentially phenomenal for Eric Cole, and he's just kind of always

in the mix.

So I'd probably go in those directions.
