The course should be the course, no matter the weather conditions. It might play a little more difficult in bad weather, or a little easier in good weather, but there's no way Players should be firing the rounds they were in the first 3 days for a US Open. Today is going to be interesting for sure.

I gotta say, I have never understood the fascination with "protecting" an arbitrary number.
The leader after 3 round has taken 204 shots. The leader at this stage last year at the mighty Oakmont had taken 203. Relabeling par 5s as par 4s does not make a course a true test of golf or a good US Open venue. Happy Father's Day to al of you, hope you enjoy it. |

This course is beautiful when the wind blows. Love seeing the waves in the fescue.

Man you guys are being too tough on this tourney. I find it quite exciting. I don't care what the final score is as long as multiple guys have a chance till the end.

I know rooting for Fowler is pointless, but here's hoping.

I picked Fleetwood, oosthuizen and Casey at the start. My kid picked Harman, Koepka and Ricky. He obviously knows more than me...

Surprised they are scoring this easily. Was hoping for a tournament closer to par and some movement on the last day.

Scores aside, Koepka put the hammer down, always nice to watch that.

Koepka just hit a 380 yard 3 wood. We live in a video game world.

But who knows... there seemed to be a lot of blowback after the last two setups. Like Adam Scott saying a few weeks ago the USGA needs to worry about growing the game and instead of worrying so much about par. Seems like a lot of guys feel that way. But then again they're playing with equipment that allows them to do things no one has ever done before. |
