Jim Furyk to win 12/1 e.w. available generally  3rd
Furyk has been in great form over the last month or so and it is difficult to see him not being in contention this week. He was 5th here at the 1997 U.S. Open and 6th heading into the weekend when the weather-affected Booz Allen Classic was played here two years ago. Victory this week could see him return to 2nd place in the World Rankings for added incentive this week.

Adam Scott to win 22/1 e.w. @ Victor Chandler  mc
Have backed the No.3 in the world rankings and will now back No.4: Adam Scott. Despite his missed cut in the U.S. Open, he has become much more consistent on this Tour with a victory in the Houston Open in April and finishes of 6th, 5th and 7th before Oakmont. And then there is his performance in 2005 when he finished 2nd on this course and looked set to win for the second year in a row until his approach at the 17th hole not only bounced through the green, but managed to bounce through a bunker as well before ending up in the water. That was a tough break, but he could certainly make amends this time around.

Nick O'Hern to finish in the top-five 14/1 @ BetFred  mc
O'Hern was a full-time member of the European Tour when this course was used in 2005, but with finishes of 6th and 23rd in the last two U.S. Opens, he has shown that he can play well on some of the tougher American courses. He also played well in the PGA Tour event in Maryland last year - the Booz Allen Classic - when finishing 2nd and finished 3rd last time out (Travelers Championship), so he has clearly found his level on this Tour. Not exactly a prolific converter of winning chances in Europe and Australia, so the place option is the best one with O'Hern, but I would still have expected at least a couple of points lower than 14/1.
