One other thing, these Poa greens will get really bumpy as the day goes on and they dry out. Putting will not be fun.

They interviewed The Silvy-Looking Rocco Mediate (SHARK vibe) about the 2008 US Open. He seems to have a decent reflection on it but I think I recall him saying Tiger was “beatable” back in those days and Tiger made him eat those words.

I’ve seen some nice puts in the last few minutes.

Got to like it when a guy named Dick Bland is leading it.

To me the ideal US Open has the second place score at -1 alone, or a tie at even.

I love a par or +1 or 2 winner. The pros bitching about course difficulty is highly entertaining.

That said it's even more fun if one guy goes nuts the last day and shoots a 66 to land at -3, while everyone else is either even or plus. Because it makes the bitching even more futile.

Coming out of the last break, not including the promo package, there was 6 minutes and 50 seconds of live golf coverage before a playing through ad break now on its 5th spot. Gotta love NBC coverage

Having so many guys near the top trumps a score near par. Anyone at even or better has a shot and if someone goes bananas with a perfect round 67 or better you can win it all. I don’t love this course but it does have a few eagle holes and the par threes are very tough. Looking forward to the coverage.

Tees are up on 18 today. Could make for an exciting finish.

Yeah the leaderboard is bunched. Some star power too. Rory is my guy, but I've always liked Oosthuizen as well.

Dustin Johnson and Collin Morikawa have the exact same caddy and no one can tell me otherwise.

Same. Beyond those guys I’m good with everyone but Bryson.

Agree. No Koepka, no Bryson with some excitement? I'm good.

Hadn't really noticed, but you are right. Tons of commercials with NBCs coverage.

Yeah I wasn't a huge fan of Fox's coverage, but at least they had a good amount of time in between commercial breaks.

Bryson and Koepa heating up. Not good.

And from what I recall yesterday most of those playing through commercials were full :60 spots. They're flirting way too much with a true 1:1 content/commercials ratio.

You should be a fan of Bryson. He’s a lot like Tim Anderson . An arrogant douche who backs up his mouth most of the time . Though I don’t know if Bryson has actually called another golfer the n word .

Huge par save for Rory.


Shakes' take is ridiculous. As the final group makes the turn Sunday at the US Open, there are nine guys within three shots of the lead.
