It’s a short list of players without a major title to their credit that are playing well enough or have played well enough to be considered as good chances to the win the U.S. Open at North Carolina’s Pinehurst No. 2 in 11 days.

Colombia wasn’t able to keep a two-goal lead over Senegal in Argentina and ended up tying, 2-2. The game had two faces for the Colombians. A first half with a team that looked solid with a smooth buildup of attacking plays by adding numbers up front and the premise of quick passes to keep possession.

The man most able to help Lionel Messi shine at the Brazil 2014 World Cup, Fernando Gago, must start every game for Argentina. When Gago injured his left knee while playing for Boca Juniors against Colon in mid-April, there was concern that he would barely be ready for the tournament in June and July. The 28-year-old may be a little lacking in match fitness, but he is training with the squad and it...
