Open Pairings

Always a good time trying to figure out what they've done here. 

Ian Poulter, Justin Leonard, Robert Allenby
* Three guys who have won a lot less than you would think.

Vijay Singh, Jeev Milkha Singh, K.J. Choi
* Quietest.  Threesome.  Ever.

Sergio Garcia, Camilo Villegas, Adam Scott
* Heartthrobs without trophies.

Rocco Mediate, Kenny Perry, Tom Lehman
* Old Farts (too easy)

Henrik Stenson, Robert Karlsson, Steve Stricker
* Two Scandinavians and an American who looks like one.

Geoff Ogilvy, Jim Furyk, Paul Casey
* The "Flying Under the Radar" pairing.  All three can readily win this.

Luke Donald, Trevor Immelman, Tim Clark
* Another "Guys who win less than they should."

Kevin Sutherland, Dudley Hart, Ken Duke
* PGA TOUR Pros that nobody wants to follow

Anthony Kim, Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson
* The Next Wave

Retief Goosen, Ernie Els, Phil Mickelson
* Vanquished by Tiger

...any others?
