To begin with round review: The U.S. planning to keep the majors, inconvenience at No. 7 and that's just the beginning 

SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. - The season's second significant opens Thursday at Shinnecock Hills, with all the huge names apparently prepared to get something going. Will Dustin Johnson win two weeks in succession and proceed with the American predominance in majors? Can Phil Mickelson make one more U.S. Open run and snatch the real that has escaped him every one of these years? Is it Rickie Fowler's chance? Will Rory McIlroy's fourteen day golf stumble on Long Island - he's played apparently every enormous name course in and around the territory amid his expanded stay - result in a second U.S. Open? Gracious, and shouldn't something be said about Tiger Woods? Is the real that presently appears the hardest for him to win - the requesting, one-major error will-destroy you major - be where he gets through?

Every one of the majors in a similar place

A speedy look at the Official World Golf Rankings demonstrates the game is in various hands. Seven unique nations are spoken to in the best 20. So you'd figure the titles would be dispersed all through the world, isn't that so? All things considered, no. At the present time, the U.S. has its hands on every one of the four noteworthy titles as this U.S. Open commences. Streams Koepka is the shielding champion here. Patrick Reed won the Masters in April. Justin Thomas shut the 2017 noteworthy season by winning the PGA Championship and Jordan Spieth guaranteed The Open a year ago with a wild Sunday complete at Royal Birkdale.

The all-U.S. significant run denotes the first run through since 2003-'04 that Americans have had each of the four - Jim Furyk (U.S. Open), Ben Curtis (The Open), Shaun Micheel (PGA Championship), Phil Mickelson (Masters) - in the meantime. Prior to that, Americans held every one of the four majors in 2000-'01 when Woods held each of the four in the wake of finishing the Tiger Slam.

Try not to wager on the top pick

Taking a gander at the chances and attempting to make sense of who has the absolute best to bring home the trophy? All things considered, don't take a gander at the top choice.

The last time the wagering most loved brought home the title was 2008, when Tiger Woods limped around Torrey Pines on a severed leg and held Rocco Mediate in a Monday playoff for what was Woods' last significant title. As per ESPN Stats and Information, in the 39 majors since Woods' triumph, the wagering most loved has won just twice - Jordan Spieth at The Open a year ago and Rory McIlroy at the 2014 PGA Championship.

That is terrible news for Dustin Johnson, who enters as the most loved at 9-1.

Additionally awful for DJ? The last time the best positioned player on the planet won the U.S. Open? Better believe it, Woods in 2008.
