While the clamor of the masses to see the space outside the ropes, several lucky volunteers get to see Tiger Woods up close and personal inside the ropes. And I'm not talking to the commissioners to see him play a hole. I can beat this.

I'm talking about the standard-bearers - The guys carrying the scoreboards, with each group, for fans to see can see where the players are in the day and overall.

The champions have access to everything inside the ropes on the golf course. They have a place in the tees, walking on the stand beside the fairways and greens. Probably not a single spectator in the U.S. Open Bethpage 109th in points would not change with the standard-bearers.

Jim Steigerwald is in charge of all the champions in the Open this year, and recalls the thrill of being inside the ropes with the players.

"I did it for the group of Tiger at Shinnecock in '95," he said. "I had Tiger, Nick Price and Ernie Els in the first round - as a group, what an experience! "

Steigerwald is now in charge of WHO gets to walk with Tiger on the Black Course. Do you have to deal with any attempt bribery of volunteers who want to walk with the world No. 1?

"It's consistent," he said.

All this goes for nothing, however, because the assignments are made three or four months before the tournament.

Steigerwald pairs of names with the group numbers, and only once the USGA announces departure times that the flag actually learns that he or she gets to walk the course.

Like everything else in the event this year, the weather has caused havoc on their tasks. It has Causio some people to cancel, forcing Steigerwald to make last minute adjustments, such as placing himself in a group.

Kyle DeCanio, 32, of Setauket, NY, was the beneficiary of one of those cancellations. Another person was assigned to a group of tiger for Round 2, but do not appear.

"A child canceled, "said DeCanio." When that boy rescued, got ".

Did you know that was in the group before he was offered to step in?

"Uh, yes, I was a little to do with it," he replied with a smile.

So what was the experience?

"He's like a nice guy, very kind," DeCanio said. "He introduced himself and said," Hello, I am the tiger. "What am I supposed to say to that? "Uh, yeah, I know." That was very cool. "

In Round 1, while all players have complained to leave half of the entire course and wait in the clubhouse to see if I would do it or not, there was a person standing on a cloud.

Matt Leslie, age 20, Albany, New York, was the bearer of the Tiger group in Round 1, and said he had a blast going out with his players while waiting for the rain on Thursday.

"I sat next to [Tiger] in the trailer of emergency in seven [after play was initially suspended Thursday]," said Leslie. "He is like a different person off the field. He was laughing, joking, eating Chex Mix as anyone else. It's like night and day between the field and off. "

Leslie also has to wait around their group until the game was suspended for the day. Is expected to arrive to walk 18 holes with the best golfer in the world, but to get to be with him in the locker room was, to say the least, the icing on the cake.

Leslie and her dad worked in the store of goods in the Open U.S. last year at Torrey Pines. Needless to say, had a bit more exciting this time of year.

So fat the wheel a bit to get a pair Tiger?

"You know, I went to [Steigerwald] and asked if it was enough to make me $ 20 Tiger group," said Leslie. "He just laughed and asked me my name to see who had. I said, 'Matt Leslie, "and he looked up Leslie and said I was in Group 7 of the first tee. It is complete luck of the draw that this is Tiger's group. "

Leslie said he was enrolled as a volunteer in Bethpage, before the start Open 2008. Therefore, if you want to walk the course with Tiger at Pebble Beach next year, register now and "flag" as their first preference. You just get lucky enough to go inside the ropes for 18 holes with the world better.

Who knows? Maybe even get to hang out with him, too.
