U.S. Open leaderboard

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.

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.’’

Five of the top six on the leaderboard played their way onto The Country Club course through qualifying. The other was four-time major winner Rory McIlroy, who ...

“If that doesn’t scream to you it’s the Open,” then nothing will, he said. He took his drop and left himself a 12-foot birdie putt to finish with a 69. “But I’ll take the 4 and run any day of the week.” But he got up and down from the sand, making a 13-footer to save par. “Even though I’m standing up here slightly frustrated that I bogeyed the last, it’s a great start to the tournament,” he said. Johnson shot 68 to sit in a seven-way tie for seventh after 18 holes. In his attempt to win a major for the third straight year, Collin Morikawa made the turn at 3 under but didn’t make another birdie. He missed the ninth green -- his 18th hole -- and settled for his only bogey of the round. Defending U.S. Open champion John Rahm also salvaged a 69 after driving wide left on the last two holes. But the best thing he can do for the legacy circuit is to keep winning. The other was four-time major winner Rory McIlroy, who slammed and tossed aside his clubs during the round but also made enough shots with them to remain just one stroke off the lead. McIlroy was tied for second with Callum Tarren, David Lingmerth, Joel Dahmen and MJ Daffue.

Jon Rahm, Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa, Will Zalatoris and Max Homa were all able to play themselves into red figures with their Thursday performances. With ...

CBS Sports will update this story with scores and highlights below. Jon Rahm, Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa, Will Zalatoris and Max Homa were all able to play themselves into red figures with their Thursday performances. One stroke behind McIlroy are a trio of former USGA champions as Dustin Johnson, Justin Rose and Matt Fitzpatrick all signed for 2-under 68s during the breezy afternoon wave.

As a Korn Ferry Tour pro, Daffue was predominantly concerned with securing a PGA Tour card. For this reason, the seasoned golfer was fully complacent with ...

The 72 he shot on the day placed him 1-under, good enough for 12th place in the Open. On the 14th hole, Daffue slapped his tee shot onto the deck of a hospitality area. After building a three-shot lead early in Round 2, Daffue’s back-nine 40 consisted of three bogeys and a double-bogey on the 18th hole. Daffue claimed the top position the following day, striking early with three birdies and a bogey over his first five holes. The South African sat atop the leaderboard for most of the early contest and held the on-course lead, but the roller coaster eventually swung backward, as Daffue left The Country Club in Brookline, Mass., at one-under-par on Friday. “I didn’t want to skip a week,” Daffue said.

The 122nd U.S. Open gets underway Thursday with the national championship taking place at one of the oldest golf courses in the United States.

The major championship record is poor, but take out his missed cuts at the PGA Championship and The Players Championship, and Cantlay has unbelievable this year. McIlroy has top 10s in three of his last four majors and three straight U.S. Opens. The fact that he hasn't captured one of these coveted championships since 2014 is obscene given some of the low rounds he's shot, but he finally seems to be back to form. This is the best Rory has played entering a major in quite a while, and he's even coming off a title defense at the RBC Canadian Open. McIlroy also seems to feel like he has the game of golf on his back given his staunch support of the PGA Tour and the traditions of the game. If he plays his game, he'll be in the mix, and we've already seen him this season hang with the big dogs with wins at The Players Championship and the Sentry Open plus top-five finishes at the Masters and the RSM Classic. Brookline is going to demand precisely what Smith can bring: a killer short game for its lightning-quick greens and precision off the tees for the numerous blind shots golfers will be making this week. J.T. is one of the three best iron players on the planet, and his hot putter has translated to wins and near wins for the last two months. He's playing the best golf of his career and has paired an ever-present confidence that nobody in the world is better than him with a wisdom that can only be attained with age and experience. The Olympian has pulled out of the 122nd U.S. Open citing health concerns. Four days of major championship golf on a menacing course in a terrific city. Behind them are Adam Scott, Max Homa and a 75% Jordan Spieth. For those of you not in the know, the three-time major winner is experiencing some tummy issues -- pro move not wearing white pants. Those two legends of the game make way for new ones as world No. 3 Rory McIlroy begin his quest for major No. 5 in the early hours of the first round. For all the nonsense that's happened this week, what better Day 1 story could there be than a lifelong journeyman whose son is serving as caddie leading after the first 18 holes?

The Sporting News is tracking the latest scoring updates from the U.S. Open in 2022. Here's who is atop the leaderboard as action gets underway on Thursday.

The U.S. Open can be streamed using a few different options. Elsewhere, World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler will look to push Rahm and win his second major of the season. The Saudi-backed start-up held its first event last weekend and saw 2011 Masters champion Charl Schwartzel win it and take home the $4 million grand prize.

On Friday those windows are 6:45-9:30 a.m., and again after 7 p.m. He's started his round double bogey, bogey to drop to 1-over, leaving valuable strokes all over the greens. Woo buddy, that would have been one hell of a clubhouse bar tab. That's 217 yardage on the tee sheet, maybe closer to 230 in the wind, and Burns hit it to within six inches. Mickelson enjoyed a cordial welcome at Brookline. Matt Fitzpatrick returned to the site of his 2013 U.S. Amateur victory and posted a solid 2-under, sitting two strokes back. Daffue is originally from South Africa. When he was a youth, his career appeared predestined. It's amazing, and still relevant as the current U.S. Open leader — by three strokes! It also hosted the 2013 U.S. Amateur which saw Matt Fitzpatrick win that event. Curtis Strange won the last U.S. Open at The Country Club, which was held in 1988. U.S. Open leader MJ Daffue has gone out in a 32, taking a three-stroke lead over the field. Like Southern Hills, designer Gil Hanse has been working with The Country Club to prepare for this U.S. Open.

The first day of the US Open has really set up the tournament, with Adam Hadwin a shot clear on 4-under-par. But with a host of big names lurking just ...

We’ve had seven winners all-time who trailed by seven or more shots after round one – 101 players shot 73 or lower on Thursday, keeping them in that historic shouting distance. The first round scoring average of the last ten U.S. Open champions was 69.1. Perhaps even more telling, 21 of the last 23 winners of this championship were inside the top-20 after 18 holes. Or maybe a more fired up one as people drowned their sorrows in beer? Yeah we have Rory, Rahm, DJ and other stars at the top of the leaderboard, but we also get total randomers On the par-3 11th he three-putts and drops back to one-under. He is on the move with two birdies in four holes. It would not be surprising to see that go up to five or six come days end. Both US champions of the past, Rose and Johnson both have putts slide by to fall back to one-under. Two similar shots can leave a straight forward trap shot or an unplayable ball in the lip. With a sensational par putt on the 9th he is out in 32 and three shots clear. Well he split the fairway and nearly found the green in two, before hitting a couple of pitch shots, and four-putting. To be fair, so much has gone his way today already that it isn't surprising to see the golfing god's take something away.

MJ Daffue, while leading the U.S. Open, hit a beautiful 3-wood from a hospitality tent at The Country Club on Friday.

and was leading the tournament by one shot over a large group at 3 under. Despite the heroics, he went on to make bogey. Well, it came to rest on the deck of a hospitality tent.

Phil Mickelson has created notable storylines at the 2022 U.S. Open. Now, he is unlikely to survive the cut.

The most golfers ever to make the U.S. Open cut is 108 in 1996. The cut will be for the top 60 scores (including ties), meaning that a minimum of 60 golfers will advance and more will likely make the cut. At least 60 of those 156 golfers will make the cut. The line will move throughout the second round with the 60th-place player. Jordan Spieth, Patrick Cantlay, Shane Lowry, Tony Finau and Brooks Koepka are all flirting with the cut line as well. Missing the cut would turn this major tournament into a major disappointment for Mickelson, who is playing in just his second event since his controversial comments about the tour.

Two-time major winner Collin Morikawa fired a four-under-par 66 to seize the lead late in the second round of the US Open, with fellow big guns Jon Rahm and ...

The Queenslander’s frustrations boiled over on the 15th hole when he broke a club in anger. Six-time major winner Phil Mickelson missed the cut on 11-over 151. I’ve just got to figure out a way to focus a little bit deeper and really get dialed in for the next 36.” I’ve got to focus on tomorrow,” Morikawa said. Buckley, a 26-year-old American developmental tour player, missed the cut in last year’s US Open in his only prior major start Top-ranked Masters champion Scottie Scheffler, with an eagle and two birdies in the last six holes, was in a pack on 137. Rahm, a back-nine starter, holed a 12-foot eagle putt at par-5 14th, drove the green to set up a birdie at the par-4 fifth and chipped from the rough to set up a tap-in birdie at the eighth.

An awesome mix of established PGA Tour veterans, former major championship winners, great underdog stories and even a local favorite are in contention after two ...

For every Collin Morikawa and his back-to-back years winning a major is a Joel Dahmen, who only four years ago would have thrilled to even play in one.

Some of them require some introductions to major championship contention on the weekend. "The last few days is a huge confidence booster for me heading into this weekend, and hopefully we can kind of make some separation somehow." Rahm had a 67 and was in the group of five players one shot behind. Start with Dahmen, who will never be accused of taking himself too seriously, even if he takes his game seriously. Jon Rahm is the defending U.S. Open champion, one shot out of the lead. That included McIlroy, coming of a win at the Canadian Open, who hit his stride on the back nine with three birdies over his last four holes for a 69.
