-16 through 70??? Lots of jackos in dbl digits.
We like to see these overprivileged punks get smoked in this tourney don't we? where the winner finishes around -3.

These scores are looking like they are teeing off on ole muni River Creek Golf Course in Burkburnett, Tx. geez
Hope they enjoyed their run over there at the Erin Hills

There's no way anyone is watching this right now. Who are these guys? I know Koepka...but

I kept my TV on it for too long today only bec I ran a couple of errands. got to turn it off quick off this channel. Want to contribute to the low ratings if possible.
Not interested in guys I've never heard of vying for sole second place to cash $1mm+ checks

Saw an interview before the open....

McElroy said " the fairways are so wide open if we can't make good scores here we don't deserve to be a pro"

McElroy shouldn't be a pro then. Lol

Course is usually fast and wind blow. Rains and no wind except for this morn has made it relatively easy But then again some big names missed the cut. Brooks is giving a putting exhibition Was pulling for Fowler huge. Not sure he will get over the hump for a major.

Must not watch a lot of golf if golf if you haven't heard of these guys in the top 10

I watch just enough to breakeven on matchups in the majors. Until last month, I lived 3 mins from the Byron Nelson...so I usually caught some there.
So I just now looked at the top 10...but never heard of harmon kardon, fleetwood mac, xander triple X, or regular ol justin thomas
I actually tend to bet on koepka in matchups for some reason when I do bet...of course I'm hanging ceiling fans and swithing light fixtures and installing surround sound instead this weekend since we just moved.

either way...this course shouldn't see the us open for another 20+

Looks like a nice track. Already looked into a stay and play there Should be a good test to a hacker

I know this means nothing but I played equally well last year and shot 69 at Erin hills and 80 at whistling straights. Not even close imo of difficulty despite the similarity of look/layout/design. Erin hills just plays easier. Not sure how else to say it

Any US Open that the winning score isnt a couple below par is a failure.

Ricky had no balls today or for that matter very often he played very conservative on a course which he could have attacked on most holes.

It is about time that the USGA finally made The Greater Milwaukee Open a major. It has been a long wait.

when Jack Nicklaus shit on the course before the Open started I knew this would be 3 straight US Opens that they got wrong.

There are 25 other tournaments I can watch these guys hit Driver + Wedge on a par-4 and it should never be the US Open. No tree, no water hazard, and only penalized if you hit a drive 40 yards off your intended landing spot is not US Open golf.

Could be a fine course for the PGA Championship but will never host another national championship.

Most impressed with Harman as this was always going to be won by a bomber so just to stay in top 3 was a hell of an accomplishment for him.

Never again Erin, WI ....
