Dela golfers in the mix: Nate (The Champ) Doss will be looking to show once again that he's one of the best in the world. Myles Harding is working to make the step up into the elite ranks. Steve Lonhart making his first USDGC appearance has the game and could surprise a lot of people. Marty Hapner is testing the yellow rope once again. Carrie "Burl" Berloger recieved a sponsers exemption and will be looking to beat lot's of guys out there and make the cut.
Other California golfers to watch: Steve Rico. I think Stevie has a great chance to win this year. I'm looking for him to do a Dave Feldburg and prove that he's a champion. Kyle Crabtree was the 2005 Nor Cal rookie of the year and is playing really well. Josh Anthon is coming off of his best season yet and will definitely playing to win. Gregg Barsby is another California young gun that can bring it to the elite level.
