US Open Thread-***May Have Spoilers***

Chambers Bay claims its first victim. Josh Persons kicks off with a triple bogey 7 on the first. Ouch.

Tasty pin positions:

Not going to be many guys going straight at the pins today!

Patrick Reed who played in the US amateur at chambers bay in 2010, when asked about it said on the 1st hole in the 1st match he made a 9 and won the hole! :eek:

Apart from the slopes, middle of the green looks really, really simple, barely more than a 10ft putt to be seen :whistle:

Anyone going directly at some of those pins is either a buffoon or very, very lucky.
 
I thought it finished at 3/4am?

That's an early start on a Monday!!

Bugger, didn't realise it was that late/early. Had planned on watching it on Sunday evening till the end as it's fathers day and all that. But not if it's finishing at that time.
 
First impression is that it doesnt seem to be tricked up like previous US opens have been

Plenty of birdies and birdie chances over the first few holes
 
Stunning setting and such an odd 'linksy' looking course for The USA.

Looks fantastic and if GM wants to offer an all expenses paid trip for 4 then I'm in !!!:thup:
 
Well ave just watched the last 10 mins and and loved it.

sure it ain't never going to be an Augusta, but for a challenge to be the best of the best, nows the time to stand up and be a man.

Bet Seve would of loved it.

can see an outsider having a good weekend.
 
I like Butch Harmon.

"Here's Monty, who won 3 senior majors in a year, and if you're close enough he'll tell you about it." :rofl:

I heard that, but Monty is playing some really good golf, but for the putter he could be more under Par.

I doubt he will but it would be great to see him win
