Our View: Williamson was part of the three-man playoff at last week's John Deere Classic but put his approach in the drink and ended on a disappointing note.

|
Heath Slocum has officially withdrawn from this week's US Bank Championship in Milwaukee, hoping to gain entry into the Open Championship in England.
Our View: Slocum has been playing rather well of late and, with Pat Perez and Jerry Kelly added to the field at the Open Championship, now sits as the first alternative for the major championship. He's prepared to make the leap into that competition if the call comes and thus had to be replaced in the US Bank by Mark Brooks. |
