I scored 50 percent. I'll redeem myself come U.S. Open time!
Great quiz, Steve. Thanks for posting it!
hey Van, 50% is a good score. You did better than me and I set the quiz!
And the good news is you now have the perfect excuse (not that you need it) to surf wikipedia and watch classic reruns on ESPN to prepare for the US Open Quiz!
Have a good weekend.
