Just loving the fact it's a links course for a US Open!

On a side note, anyone else having problems with the "Featured Group" Live Feed on the USGA website? Plays for a minute then goes down..


No problem at my end with stream, surprisingly I've got it on the smart TV.

Was watching it earlier on the tablet with no problem.

Maybe try clearing your cache history.

BTW, does anyone know of FoxSports will be streaming starting 12 EDT or will it just be on tv?

If you are having problems with the USGA stream and using IE.....try switching to Chrome....worked for me.

Joe Buck must be out of shape.  Yeah, Cole Hammer is young.  But he jogged swiftly for about 25 yards.  Like that shit requires Olympian level fitness.

Molinari takes a commanding lead in the "dungeon" 12 over.

Go figure, I gave him the curse having him as my starter this week in Fantasy Golf.

Front nine playing a stroke tougher than the back nine so far: 36.6 to 35.6 (both par 35).

Toughest hole is #7 averaging 4.7 as a 515yd par 4. By contrast, #8 is averaging only 4.8 as a 602yd par 5.

Easiest stretch seems to be 12-15, playing a tad under par for that stretch. (0.35 under par as a group of 4 holes, but the entire course is playing +2 average).

I'm actually enjoying the Fox coverage so far.. didn't really know what to expect.

Yup ... usopen.com on my computer (using Chrome as well) and the US Open App on my phone, and so far (knock on wood) there have been no issues for me. :)

Since marijuana is legal in WA state (i think) is there any prohibition on US Open players smoking/using the stuff, either on or off the course?  And since this is not a  PGA tourney, what are the rules guiding 'drug' use at the Open?

The official answer seems to be, [URL=http://thesmokersclub.kinja.com/golfers-patrons-can-bring-weed-into-the-u-s-open-bu-1712241445]"don't worry about it (but don't you dare bring in bottled water)."[/URL]

Yeah, it's not bad. They're making a few mistakes here and there. Buck and Norman sound a little rusty at times, but as long as they show golf and show different players, I'm happy.  I love all the different angles on the course.

    • Day 200 3-4 Wider back swing, arms up a bit higher, and added in some flow work to start getting a since of a full swing. Still focusing on arching wrist through downswing. 
    • It's going to be very difficult for the 2026 Masters to match the 2025 edition for storyline. I honestly don't know that anyone else in the field could match the story of Rory finally winning after so many years and the blow ups over the years, not to mention the career slam being completed. No one this year that I can think of is remotely close to that kind of story. Combine that with the attempts at blow ups last year (Double on the 1st, 13, 18 on first try) and the stunningly good shots that he hit in the final round (7, 15, 17, 18 on second try).  Full gamut: https://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/2025-04-13/17445961638226475/every_single_shot_from_rory_mcilroys_final_round.html
    • Let's kick off the 2026 Masters talk with… a look back at 2025 (coming soon):
    • Wow, so Europe named Luke for a third term. Luke Donald named 2027 European Ryder Cup Captain Luke Donald named 2027 European Ryder Cup Captain Who will the U.S. name? I hope not Tiger Woods.
    • I am playing Arrowhead for the first time and I am pumped.  What are some things that I need to make sure and appreciate, for those that have played it before and love it? It has been a pretty dry winter so I am expecting rough to be forgiving which is nice and it will be playing much easier than it does in the late summer (I am assuming based on other colorado courses).  What should I make sure to not miss?
