Yes, the United States already has two wins in the Gold Cup and has clinched its spot in the next round. But truly, the tournament begins on Tuesday night for the Americans, as the team will face its first real test against Costa Rica.

The 2013 Open Championship is finally here, and if this year’s other major tournaments are anything to go by, we are in for a real treat at Muirfield.
