2020 US Open

Reed tough with very high stats in both scrambling (2nd) and putting. Hideki and Wolff look impressive, too, today.

feels like the best scrambler will win, rather than the king of fairways and greens...

How would your swing fare starting your takeaway from this position?

Reed is staying alive with the putter. His long game is going to need to improve or it's eventually going to catch up with him.

 

Just needs to hit the rope hook 3wd

I'm pulling for anyone but him, no matter where he is.

Matt Wolff seems to be playing a different course than anyone else, lol.

He's doing Bryson like things......out-Brysoning Bryson?

I’m with you Blade.  The Arnie helicopter fade driver, the little knockdown shaped iron shots...he may be a heel, but I enjoy watching Reed golf his ball.

A few others can drive it nearly as far without having to bulk up or chug 'tein shakes every other hole. Dechambeau is still impressive, but I feel like he didn't have to take it as far as he has.

[James the Hogan Fan]

So Wolff hit 2 of 7 fairways on the front 9, and shot 5 under. Did he just win the rough lie lottery or does the rough not matter?

[BAlberstadt]

Xander at 12% (and rising). Wolff, Reed now in a dead heat, per Data Golf.

[CantJumpHighHandicap]

Callaway getting nervous yet with Xander probably having been the smart pick on their driver giveaway promo?

[JD3]

Incredible leaderboard of younger players. No offense to the HoF careers of tiger and Phil but they don't belong up there anymore.

No kidding, it’s pretty well known out there that Woodland and Finau among a few others could tune it up into the 180’s for ball speed if they wanted to swing that hard.  Bryson just wanted to make sure we were all very impressed with him doing a few isolated dumbbell lifts while he ate his way to a 40 pound weight gain. 
 

I’m more impressed with his improved short game than I am his distance gains.

It’s been weird watching this tournament for this very reason.  I keep expecting carnage from the rough and they just keep hitting the green.  I know I’m not seeing every shot but I do know that the shots I’ve seen have greatly favored players getting out of the rough with not much issue.

Wonder how many folks bought a driver & picked Xander during the 2 weeks of that contest? 

[Fischputza]

Today the course and especially the greens look a lot easier than yesterday........

Who just said derriere on live television?!
