US Open 2012

And if that was not difficult enough already, they expect the weather to be more windy over the weekend. Making victory here a remarkable achievement and a true test of all facets of one's golf skills.

Scoring average so far is 74.78, 4.78 over par.

Nobody picked McDowell?

He's one of the rare few who finished under par, -1.

How about this for a SUPER VEGAS hole!!! I Like....

Thinking about WDing from US Open cause I want to watch @TigerWoods & Phil on tv. But I forgot I got the best seat in da house!!

Tiger leaves Phil and Bubba in his dust ... For those who missed the excitment last nite ...

I'll say Kuchar is playing very well. Highest number of GIRs in first round and decent number of fairways hit.

This shot is exquisite. How did he get a low stinger draw to hold the green?

by landing it on the fringe...?

The green was uphill all the way, that helped. Otherwise, with that low landing angle, hitting the fringe was not a given.

Tiger playing very well last night. Are we going to witness another 4 days of what he did in US Open 00 @ pebble beach?

This is an interesting writeup.

How to world top 3 performed, article.

Check out the size of the crowd.

Hilarious interview with Bubba:

Olympic wasn't that simple for most everyone else.

Watson was asked about his strategy of hitting his pink-painted driver. ''I shot 8 over, so not very good,'' he said. The next question was how he played out of the rough with short irons in his hand. ''I shot 8 over, so not very good,'' he said.

''You could answer these yourself,'' he said.

Both Bubba and Mickelson played their games in a very aggressive fashion ... This is obviously not the way to play in a course like The Olympic Club. Ability to change strategy in the midst of the round is vital for success ...

while the pros play way over par
