Viva los Argentinos!

Argentina have another sports victory to celebrate as Angel Cabrera held his ground on Sunday to come from behind the leaders and win the US Open. Ending up at +5, Cabrera equalled the mark set at last years US Open at Winged foot by Geoff Ogilvy of Australia. This means back to back years of winners from some place other than the USA. Europe will have to wait another year for a US Open victory as will Mr. Tiger Woods who was unable to make up any ground on the final day and made only one birdie in his last round.

It seems that this years championship was more of the same for the USGA. The course was virtually unplayable with Kate Moss skinny fairways and concrete like greens leading to high scores all around and the champion more of a "survivor" than actual "winner".
