Leaderboard Not Working?** ***

2007usopen_50.gifI've switched the left column link to PGATour.com's joint board with PGA.com because the ESPN.com/USGA leaderboard has been working sporadically.  

**8:20 PST  Wow, the others were even worse. GolfChannel had Ogilvy through 8 holes when he had played 11, and PGA.com had him through 3 at the same point.

Meanwhile USOpen.com seems to be working now. 

*** 8:25 - USOpen.com not working again.

Having the same problems. Is it really that hard to anticipate and prepare for a crush of visitors on the first day of the U.S. Open?

I guess after all the money Walter spent on jet fuel, the I.T. budget was a little thin...

Not just the leaderboard but the entire site? Driver must have received a letter from Gutenberg's lawyers and pulled the plug.

Maybe the USGA should hire the folks that do the Masters website.

Check out PGATour.com's link - they've awarded every player in the clubouse a 30-shot penalty, meaning they claim that so far only Nick Dougherty has broken 100. Great stuff in the IT age!

Hawkeye, that's one way to protect par...

I dont know guys, I've enjoyed watching the video from the USGA website all day. . . the high speed version seems to be freezing up quickly, but the slower/smaller version works fine. Gotta keep those billable hours up on the days I have to be in the office!
