Anticipation is building to a crescendo for the 2013 U.S. Open, and to nobody's surprise Tiger Woods goes into the second major tournament of the year as the heavy betting favorite.

The tournament is being held at the Merion Golf Club's East Course—a legendary venue designed by Hugh Irvine Wilson that has hosted four previous U.S. Opens. 

Though it measures in at under 7,000 yards, Merion's East Course has earned the respect and admiration of many of golf's greatest stars, including Jack Nicklaus, who said, "Acre for acre, [Merion] may be the best test of golf in the world."
