The US Bank Championships

Ben Crane led wire-to-wire to win the tournament at 20 under par. I really think that playing the British Open last week hurt Kenny Perry and Scott Verplank. It seems the time changes and the weather delays took their toll. And Crane did finish early, for all those who have a problem with his slow play. I thought it was odd that with an hour of play left on tv, the final group had finished the 15th already. Usually, with an hour's worth of tv left, the final group is just starting the 15th hole. On a final note, I would just like to say that if the heat index is over 100 degrees, then the players should be given the option to wear shorts instead of those pants. Maybe they are and all of them decline, but I can't believe all the players would choose long pants in that heat.
