If in recent times the ideal US Open contender has been a long, strong driver of the ball, it would make sense to include Englishman Casey on the shortlist of likely contenders. And yet in seven US Opens his best efforts remain a 10th place at Winged Foot and 15th at Oakmont. This time last year he arrived at the US Open having won twice in Europe and once in America - his first win on the PGA Tour. He looked on the brink of making the step up to major class. Since when injury has struck and 2010 has become a season of what-ifs: he lost the final of the WGC-World Matchplay to Ian Poulter and, although he has seven top-20s in 11 strokeplay starts, the win stubbornly refuses to come. He has twice played at Pebble Beach in the AT&T Pro-am, missing the cut on both occasions, but since the last of those was back in 2002 we can take the results with a pinch of salt. More of a concern is his short game from thick grass - something the US Open specialises in and he doesn't.
