From a player on site today at Shinnecock Hills: "If the wind is blowing during the tournament like it is today, the 11th green is unplayable."
Transcript
I don't think people truly understand how crazy the US Open is going to be. From the storylines to course conditions, we are in for an incredible week of golf. We've got a ton of drama surrounding Bryson DeChambeau, who is expected to play great at the Masters and the PGA championship, missing both cuts. After missing both of those cuts, it looks like he will be switching drivers from his crank driver to a tailor made driver. Can Scottie Scheffler complete his rank slam at Shinnecock? Can Rory win his second major of the year? Will Brooks Koepka, the last major champion at Shinnecock, step back into the winner's circle? And there are so many other incredible tier lines, but course conditions will be a major topic of discussion. Take just a second and listen to this clip of Rory teeing off this morning. I mean, the wind is howling. And we've already got some reports from players saying if the wind is blowing like it is today, that some of these greens will be unplayable. And also, if you wanna stay up to date on everything happening at the US Open, make sure you're following. So if you're looking for a golf tournament that will not have a score of 20 under par, you want to see some drama and watch professional golfers struggle, tune in to the US Open this week because it is going to be absolute current. But I do wanna hear your thoughts on these course conditions and who you want to see win the twenty twenty six US Open.
