List of U.S. Open (golf) champions
I'm nominating this list for featured list candidacy as I believe this list meets all the criteria, a list similar to this List of Masters Tournament champions has already passed feature status and this list is similar in style. Thanks in advance or your comments NapHit (talk) 17:39, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Comments from
 * You can make the lead image bigger (as long as the resolution supports it) per WP:MOS - it encourages lead images to be at least 300px (I think 250px in this case as the image isn't that big).
 * Try a more imaginative lead sentence than saying "This is a [TITLE OF LIST]".
 * "Tiger Woods holds the distinction of being the most strokes under par for 72 holes. He was 12 strokes under par (-12) when he won in 2000.[6]" consider merging these two sentences.
 * "(n/a) = Information not available" looks odd as it's bigger than the rest of the legend. Also, why is not available in italics?  (n/a) isn't...
 * You need to explain E for even par.
 * I see it in ref 7 (explanation of E), but you need a space before the E.
 * ref 28 appears to be missing a full stop.
 * I've fixed everything you mentioned except the image size which balloons in size when I put 250px in instead of upright. NapHit (talk) 16:07, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Comments Just a couple for now.
 * Remove "The following is a list of U.S. Open (golf) champions." which simply repeats the article title, and open with something that engages the reader.

 * besides the salmon, blue and green shaded cells, you need some kind of marker to identify, per WP:ACCESS. Asterisks, daggers and carets would be fine.
