Tony Romo and Justin Timberlake might not be qualified to play in the U.S. Open, but both proved they could break 100 on Friday on Torrey Pines’ South Course. The two joined “Today” host Matt Lauer and John Atkinson, a medical salesman from Omaha, in a foursome bent on disproving Tiger Woods’ theory that it takes a pro to beat the course. Romo, a 2-handicapper, won with a 13-over-par 84. Timberlake, right, parred the 18th to finish at 27-over 98, while Lauer shot a 100 and Atkinson, who was chosen from 56,374 essay applicants to play in the challenge hosted by Golf Digest magazine and NBC, finished with a 43-over 114.
