2022 US Open Thread

[MU82]

As Rico stated, his performance in majors the last 3 years is not good. He has 5 wins on Tour since 2020, but not one Top-10 in a major championship.

To be honest, I like Rahm to repeat. Currently, #1 in strokes gain off the tee and keeping it in the fairway looks to be at a premium this week.

Callaway's running a deal that if you buy a new Callaway driver and correctly pick a Callaway pro as winner of the Open, you'll get reimbursed what you paid for the driver.

So if you feel strongly about Rahm and you could use a new driver ... have at it!

That's fair but didn't he win the Tour Championship?  Who will have a hot putter this weekend?  Rose hasn't won forever it seems but looked good in Toronto.

He didn't really win the Tour Championship

Pulling for Rory, Rahm or JT

I was already a big Rory fan, but now even moreso. Like watching the other 2 guys play, too.

Contending in the majors is his next step

Nah. I'm currently playing the Titleist TSi3. Fantastic driver. And, I have never really gotten along with Callaway clubs.

I believe Callaway ran this promotion last year too, prior to Rahm's win at the U.S. Open. Rahm has been a very good signing for them.

I wonder how many drivers they ended up giving away.

You don't have to buy the driver, mail-in your pick as long as it's postmarked tomorrow.

Thanks. I'll check it out. Could use a new driver to get me tour ready.

Cantlay and Spieth +2 early.  Henley -2.  It's over

Sounds like this course is playing brutal.  Makes you wonder what it would be like if it was warm in Boston. 

[MuggsyB]

Good start for Morikawa. 

[MuggsyB]

Coverage right now on USA fyi.  I guess I was wrong about Cantlay.  Morikawa and Rahm looking strong early.

USA Network is the only one covering this? Sad.

I think it moves to NBC?  Not sure.  Ya...I was searching fot it and was like WTF?  Great to watch a few hours of golf before  work.

[Uncle Rico]

It's all over the place because NBC has the rights.  Sticking with the app

[Herman Cain]

Seems like a lot of players under par so far

[tower912]

But nobody really going low.

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

Think the wind is picking up a bit. Completely pushed Morikawa's tee shot right.

Afternoon guys are gonna have their hands full.

[PGsHeroes32]

Last hole put a bit of a blemish on a hell of a opening round for Rory as he tries to get back to winning majors.

[MuggsyB]

Just saw the score.  Tarren?  I assume the  afternoon will be more difficult.  Rory, Rahm, and Morikawa in excellent position.
