“It becomes a distraction and you don’t want to be focused on this or that. A field of 156 will compete at the same club where 20-year-old hometown hero Francis Ouimet became the first amateur to win the US Open back in 1913. As a result, US stars Dustin Johnson, Phil Mickelson, Patrick Reed and Bryson DeChambeau are among the LIV Golf rebels teeing off in a unique sub-plot to the quest for a major title -- the first LIV-PGA showdown.
Defending champion Jon Rahm is one of the favorites, along with McIlroy, PGA Championship winner Justin Thomas and Masters winner Scottie Scheffler. As of 7:55 ...
Plenty of PGA mainstays are also in Boston, led by Rory McIlroy, the 2011 U.S. Open champ, who has been outspoken in opposing LIV Golf. This time, he’s doing it with Saudi money. Men’s golf remains at the center of the sporting universe this week, as the world’s top players converge on the Country Club in Brookline, Mass. for the 122nd U.S. Open. After a tumultuous stretch that’s seen multiple star players defect from the PGA Tour in favor of the lucrative, Saudi-backed LIV Golf International Series, the USGA can only hope that the competition now seizes the spotlight.

That's going to play as basically a 100-yard shot for the pros, I think, and that's just ... *chef's kiss.* He has a solo second and a T8 at the first two major tournaments this year, and this course is a really nice setup for him. The 2022 U.S. Open will be available via streaming on Peacock with exclusive windows as well as featured groups. In what has been somewhat of a downturn of a season after last year’s best-in-class form, this is the perfect opportunity for Rahm to get back on track. He has bogeyed Nos. 1, 3 and now 4, with a par at No. 2. None of this is secret anymore — hell, two decades have passed — but in Boston, old habits die hard, and when one guy from the neighborhood tells a story about another guy from the neighborhood, it’s best not to blab. Curtis Strange won the last U.S. Open at The Country Club, which was held in 1988. Like Southern Hills, designer Gil Hanse has been working with The Country Club to prepare for this U.S. Open. The ball rams into the jar and Leonard takes off running. “See over there,” the caddie says, pointing to a spot on the green. Those are the stories in the annals. A Rory or JT or Speith or Rahm. I think they all have a good chance.
The first day of the US Open starts, the toughest test in golf from Brookline Country Club.
If you want to see what every hole looks like, I recommend watching the video below... Diamond was absent last week at the RBC Canadian Open as he and his wife welcomed the arrival of their second child. For someone who is so good a lot of the time, Patrick Cantlay's Major record is pedestrian to say the least. Measuring at just 315 yards and downwind, this hole will see a lot of birdies today I think. After chopping it down the par-4 13th, Rory makes an excellent seven-foot putt for par to stay at level. A slight cut and he has 10 feet or so to get to one-under. Homa made his birdie putt by the way on the 6th and he is also to one-under. Amateur Travis Vick just missed a short birdie putt to do the same. Unfortunately I didn't see it because Sky wanted to take us down to the driving range instead... Great to see Rory start well again, just like he did at Southern Hills last month. Great to see him starting well after four consecutive Major missed cuts. England's Callum Tarren gets into the red thanks to a birdie at the 16th.
Defending champion Jon Rahm, PGA Championship winner Justin Thomas and two-time major title-holder Collin Morikawa are all only three strokes back at 1 under, ...
T42. Joaquin Niemann, Sam Burns, Bryson DeChambeau, Corey Conners and eight others (+1): After an eagle on the par-5 eighth, it appeared that Niemann would threaten the first page of the leaderboard as he stood at 2 under for the day. It felt as if he was all over the place Thursday as he carded four birdies to offset four bogeys. In his five U.S. Open appearances, he has five top-10 finishes; however, he has yet to truly contend as his average deficit entering the final round has been 5.4 strokes. While Young was in a similar spot as Spieth from a statistical standpoint, Cantlay was not as his iron play was simply dreadful. Having been in the final pairing at the 2022 PGA Championship, it is possible the heartache from Southern Hills leads to jubilation in Brookline. He has been knocking on the door for what seems like an eternity and on paper the 2022 version of Fitzpatrick is different. He will need this area of the bag to rebound as he has had some trouble backing up one great round with another. Leading the field in strokes gained tee to green, there is still room for improvement as the 34-year-old ranked 60th in strokes gained putting in Round 1. The Canadian is in the midst of a sneaky strong season, which at one point included three consecutive top-10 finishes but has yet to taste contention in a major championship. He continued his fine play Thursday at The Country Club, but it was not without some head scratching moments. Defending champion Jon Rahm, PGA Championship winner Justin Thomas and two-time major title-holder Collin Morikawa are all only three strokes back at 1 under, and they will look to ascend up the leaderboard in Friday's second round. Dropping a shot late in his round, McIlroy would later be matched by by Joel Dahmen, MJ Daffue and a pair of European counterparts at 3 under.
The 2022 U.S. Open has no shortage of storylines this year — but only a few of them have to do with who will take home the third major of the 2021-22 PGA ...

Can Woodland secure another U.S. Open title? Really solid showing for a player who is still seeking his first win on the PGA Tour. Hadwin led the pack for much of his round. He was less than pleased about it.

Rory McIlroy posted a 3-under-par 67 in the first round Thursday at The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts, to put himself in contention.
“You feel like you’re right in the tournament from the start of the week, which is nice,” McIlroy said about getting off to a good start in a major. And McIlroy could become the first in the game’s history to win a PGA Tour event the week before winning the U.S. Open. “I’m going into tomorrow with the mindset of let’s keep it going, rather than where is the cut line or whatever, if you don’t get off to a great start those thoughts start to creep in. Joining McIlroy at 67 WERE Callum Tarren, Joel Dahmen, David Lingmerth and MJ Daufee. The week didn’t start well for Tarren as his clubs didn’t arrive with him from Toronto. It was the second time at a U.S. Open his clubs weren’t with him after a flight. In the 2019 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, he didn’t get his clubs until the day before the tournament started. Just basically did everything that you need to do at a U.S. Open.” Adam Hadwin was atop the leaderboard for most of his afternoon round. But McIlroy collected himself and made a 13-footer for par to keep momentum on his side. Even though I’m standing up here slightly frustrated that I bogeyed the last, it’s a great start to the tournament. So I was sort of cursing the USGA. “The thickest rough on the course is around the edges of the bunkers. And then he swatted the ball 10 yards into another bunker and took some mighty whacks at the sand in frustration.
Raise your hand if you've ever heard of Callum Tarren, MJ Daffue, Hayden Buckley, Matthew NeSmith and David Lingmerth.
I’ve got great memories of the place, and the whole time I’ve been out, I see shots that I hit and I see the places I was. “I’m just trying not to put any pressure on myself. Fran Quinn, the 57-year-old Massachusetts resident who got into the field via local and sectional qualifying, shot 76. Golf Channel reported that Spieth hit just three balls on the range on Tuesday, and played very little after that. Overall pressure when you don’t have any status and you are playing a Monday qualifier, that’s a lot more pressure because you know you’ve got to go shoot 6-under par just to have a chance. “Just excited with my start, and let’s see what the next few days holds.’’
