LAS VEGAS - Ryan Moore, the golf fan, will try his best not to gawk at the PGA Tour professionals he sees this week at the U.S. Open.

Moore won't be a spectator at one of golf's greatest championships that begins Thursday -- he'll be one of the 156 competitors at the Bethpage State Park's Black Course in Farmingdale, N.Y., sharing the stage with the likes of Lehman, defending champion Retief Goosen and 2000 champion Tiger Woods.
