Some of the guesses for final score and the tie breaker round scores don't seem to match up well.

I noticed a few of those as well.
Hope everyone saw that par is 70

Yeah, it would mean day 2 and/or 3 had significantly better scores than their predicted tie breaker days.

Well as much as it pains me to predict this, I am going with McDowell. I hate predicting a non-American to win America's Open, but i think it is his for the taking. This is one time i will not be upset for being wrong(even though back to back wins would be sweet)

Welcome TBS members to the 3rd Annual US Open Contest!
This year's venue is staged at San Francisco's, The Olympic Club. Albeit not a staple in the rotation, Olympic has hosted some memorable US Opens from Palmer's collapse in '66(Billy Casper) to the controversial '98 event(Janzen over Payne Stewart) featuring the virtually unputtable 18th green.
Although it measures less than 7200 yards(par 70) and lacks any water or out of bounds, this gem is quite formidable. Holes 1-6 may be the toughest opening stretch in golf. The par 5 16 measures 670 and should play over par according to Lefty. Like most US Opens, Olympic demands accuracy off the tee. The uniqueness here requires accurate shaping off the tee to hold the many reverse-sloped dogleg fairways. Unpredictability has proven to be the norm when staged here and prompted journalist Dan Jenkins to quip "the wrong guy wins every time".
Contest rules: Pick the winner and and the winning score.
Tie breakers...
1st Tie breaker: Pick the winner's 1st round score 2nd Tie breaker: Pick the winner's 4th round score 3rd Tie breaker: Winner's birdie tally for the week
****In the event no one picks the winner, we'll go with the winning score and highest finish picked with that winning score.****
(No grand prize this time, but bragging rights are up for grabs!)
****Entries need to be in by 10 am Thursday to qualify!!****
Notable Thursday tee times(EST)....
10:33 am - Mickelson, Woods, B. Watson 4:29 pm - Donald, McIlroy, Westwood 4:36 pm - Kuchar, Poulter, Stricker 4:40 pm - Furyk, Garcia, McDowell 4:58 pm - Fowler, Ishikawa, D. Johnson

I have a hard time believing that anyone will finish under par in this thing. The course is set up very long i.e. 670 par 5. The greens the last time around were almost unplayable because the ball would literally not stop rolling. I really think 2 or 3 over will be good enough to hold the trophy.

Also because he was able to go from Holly Sweeney to Caroline Wozniacki in a blink of eye. Kids got serious game even with that ridiculous Fro.

Any takers for Michael Thompson, who currently sits 3 adrift, finishing in the top 10?
