Lampard, on the other hand, is a Chelsea legend from his playing days, but he only has one season in charge of the Derby on the side of the Championship in terms of his managerial experience.

Big guns could be spiked at wide-open US Open

Image
It is likely that a premium iron player wins the US Open this week at Pebble Beach, where Zach Johnson has almost the same chance of winning as Dustin Johnson in the third championship of the year. Brooks Koepka deserves his classification as favorite in the championship, with Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson right behind him, while Tiger Woods will undoubtedly attract the most attention. The consensus of the experts, however, is that dozens of players could win an Open Open, as in 2010, when the then-ranked Graeme McDowell 37 triumphed, a blow ahead of the longest of the long shots in Gregory Havret. There are likely to be many more players in the mix at Pebble than at the recent PGA Championship at Bethpage Black, a design beast that knocked out the shortest hitters in the competition even before they ended. It was not a coincidence that Koepka and Dustin Johnson finished first and second. But Pebble Beach, which will play a pair of 71 to 7,075 yards for the Open, is con...
