Few players in the field command as much respect at a US Open as the 41-year-old South African. A winner in 2001 at Southern Hills and 2004 at Shinnecock Hills he became known as the world's greatest putter on ultra fast greens which, added to his phlegmatic character and straight long game, made him a perfect fit for the brutal demands of US Open venues. It is also worth noting that when the US Open was last held at Pebble Beach in 2000 Goosen was tied for 100th after round one before storming through the field to finish 12th. And were it not for the fact that he is recovering from both hand and foot injuries, you would be keen to follow him this week because he had undoubtedly recovered his once-famed consistency. Until the first injury struck after the Masters he had collected six top-10 finishes in just nine starts in 2010. That injury is a big concern however.
