I missed Sectionals by 2 strokes this year.  I summarized my round here, if you or anyone is interested. June 4th is the day for Sectional Qualifying this year.  I'm not sure how many of the 500

This is kind of neat...each of the top 9 finishers had a final score (over par) that was equivalent to their finishing position:

It seems like you have to go here to get shot tracker for the tournament: http://www.usopen.com/scoring.html

It works fine, but I haven't found a way to jump to a specific hole yet. I can only scroll up and down, one hole at the time. This gets pretty annoying if you first want to look at hole 15, then hole 2.

Scoring so far indicate a difficult course. Or conditions. Or both.

Triple on a 157 yard par 3 is pretty bad by Spieth. +4 through two.

The bite in the US Open is definitely back. 

I would say there’s a chance not one person breaks par today.

Amateur Kristoffer Reitan is the first ever Norwegian to play in the US Open.

 

Spieth at +5 and McIlroy at +6 so far. Ouch. This is a tournament where you could see some random player win it.

Course is kicking ass so far. 

Spieth's ball speed with the driver has been under 170 every shot I've seen him hit. Interesting.

Me too! Much better than the standard ball-against-blue-skies that doesn't tell you anything about the shape of the shot. Especially in these windy conditions where you might see players hit more punchy shots.

Forecast shows double-digit wind speeds all week so this is likely not just to be a “one-day” carnage. This could be Winged Foot like scores by the end of week.

Up to double digits, yeah, but Thursday will be the worst. Drops below 10 after 1 PM tomorrow, and on Saturday it's around 5 from the morning. Might get some rain the following days, which will affect the course. Not that it gets flooded, but wet grass is different from dry grass.

Amazing thing is greens look really receptive right now. Quite soft. If these greens get some fire to them and you add just a 7-10 mph wind, this course will get ridiculous.

Sigh, I miss The Masters. US Open stream totally failing on me. Tried both groups, on laptop, phone and tablet. Totally unpredictable. Never had a problem with The Masters.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Same here. So I’m just using HULU for FS1. It's working well.

      Going to a Friendsgiving tomorrow and I am bringing a no-bake cheesecake. I make the crust too big, but I think it turned out good. The filling is really good.

      2024 TST Birdie Challenge

      By iacas ·

      I would say your back nine is the second nine you play that day. It's part of what makes getting some of those holes tougher. Or, if 18 holes are played pretty often, out of A, B, and C, and you often play A and C, A is the front and C is the back, regardless of the order you play them in. That way not birdieing C #7 isn't overcome by birdieing the easier A #7 on a day you played it C-A instead of A-C. But, at the end of the day, nobody really cares except yourself.

      Day 128: played 9. Nice little even 9, with 2 birdies and 2 bogeys.

      @DeadMan, I think your approach makes sense. As @dennyjones said, consistency is the key.
