I guess Marlon Manalo is the next in line for the WPC Title.

Remember only two non-Americans have won the US Open. While the field is mostly Americans, Busta, Immonen, Luat, etc. have never won it and even Efren lost three years in a row in the finals I think.

22nd US Open - 1997 Earl Strickland – Efren Reyes
