Big Dusty played extremely well. Yes, a few breaks, but a few unlucky ones too.
As it stands I won't be adding any more to my team at the minute.
Burns +1 and Noren +2.....well maybe a couple of £ on Beef at 380 (+3)
Fascinating stuff!

anyone else think that the two leaders are juiced? 
Brooks major record in general is exceptional, rare type who is better in the big ones than the week to week stuff.
score that amazes me is Kiradech shooting -2 with the dodginess off the tee
know he's streaky,fair play

re Lefty,bit naughty,had given up basically
are u telling me he would've done that had he been leading?

Thats a joke Poulters bunker shot. Cracker rolls of the green
Yeah, some of these greens / positions on the back 9 are bang off.
On some of these greens the golfers should be wearing ice skates rather than spikes 
See Brooks now, great shot rolls into bunker, can't stop it on the way out. Berger and Finau looking better all the time with Dusty getting into the tough stretch
great shot though Dusty, bout the best on 13 in a while
Traditionally you dont go too far back for the winner on Sunday at the US Open, based off today the winner could come from anywhere tomorrow.
Thought Rose was about to go off the cliff earlier, very impressive.
all too pally with the comms sticking up 4 their homies
it's the SAME 4 EVERYONE...as the USGA once said replying to the accusatory question
'are u trying to embarrass the best players in the world?'
'no,merely trying to identify them'

mental beast rose licking his lips at a sunday showdown.
if this was sunday berger and finau would be getting ready for the play-off.
just backed dustin leader after R3 and straight away gonna make bogey or double
More utterly brain dead golf from Mr muscle....
Blame course all you want but that's a cop out for half of this nonsense,most totally self inflicted.
Dj iron off tee,40yds right, Brooks downhill 20ft for birdie,one off lead,smashes it 15 feet past.
Ludicrous golf,not all course here, players at it...

DJ has played some very sensible shots since the turn.
reed freerolling for his second major of the year will obviously be dangerous tomorrow.
Berger and Finau could yet be the final pair tomorrow.
Went out at 10.13 am and 10.57 am respectively today.

Lot of Beevis and Butthead fans riddled around the course.
fairness to DJ he has had the worse of it all 3 days. Still up there.
one thing i've learnt from this tournament, is under these sort of conditions you should give the explosive players, the spieths, the mcilroys a miss. instead the leaderboard is dominated by the grinders, rose, stenson furyk etc.
At least one of Berger/Finau now guaranteed to be in the final group, only DJ has a say now.
Bit disappointed from Poulter there, thought we were going to get both barrels, he actually understated it a bit.
Big Kiradech looks the price at the moment, wouldn't surprise me to see the big lad win a major at some point.
2 players 11 shots back, going out early could both end up in final group.
Shows you the huge scoreing differences between the early and late starters.
Though no doubt they are 2 great rounds.

one big advantage that the likes of berger/finau have is that they're mentally fresh, haven't been in the heat of the battle, it's like they've just joined in. expect the likes of johnson/rose/stenson to be incredibly mentally tired now
Fowler started the day +2 then shoots +14. Bet his dinner isnt going down so well.
Gone midnight, Its golf not cbeebies and they are apologising lol
8ft away on last and worried if he can keep it within 6ft if he misses
TBF that was a tough up and down from 16ft away on the green.
That has to be one of the biggest farce ever in a top golf competition. Players in the afternoon had NO chance. Mays well be playing on the streets of a major city
Thought when Dj hit that was gonna be 30 feet away.
Rose one was,just bizarre that,are any of these USGA guys golfers??..

That was not entertaining - a complete farce. Not going to attract new players to the game.
Final group were 11 shots back to start, so Mickey DeMorat's not out of it yet.
Team Phil delighted with all this hoopla about course,delighted...
set for a potentially thrilling finale
Koepka & DJ,Rose & Stenson good pairings
hard to know what's going to happen
is the weather going to start drying out the greens again,is the wind going to blow,are the USGA going to put the pins in slightly more amenable positions on the back of y'day's criticism,will they water the greens?
all imponderables until we get some sort of idea once play gets under way
Dylan Meyer's to lose,surely
think the tougher the conditions prob suit Rose,Furyk type player more
more scoreable Koepka,DJ
be great imho if the tubby Thai could do it
if Koepka can keep his ball in play off the tee will be hard to beat
jetzt geht's los!

Yep would agree there if the course is easier the Yanks DJ and Koepka would be favs , if it plays tougher Rose , Stenson would have big chance
Phil did nothing wrong. He like many others were sick of the joke of a course. Fair play to him for being honest
What with his dodgy money dealings and now being confirmed as a cheat anyone would think PM isn't the nice guy portrayed in the media..........
I don't think Phil 'cheated' . Cheating,as I understand it ,is trying to gain an unfair advantage while keeping what you're doing hidden- i.e. you think or hope or possibly know you won't be caught out. Phil's action was out in the open and he knew there would be a penalty.
I agree but if a lesser player done or god forbid a European player they would probably be on plane home now
The USGA need to understand the difference between tough and damn right ridiculous ! Some of the pin placements yesterday were insane ! I can't believe they won't react to yesterdays goings on and make things much easier. I would say some watering and easy pin positions are a certainty !
Mick knows he can get away with anything.Maybe not cheating but close.Think it was in Mexico a few years back ,driving all over the shop.Getting free drops that seemed outrageous.Again not cheating but he knows how to pressure referees ," you know who I am don't you ? "
highlights the complexity of golf rules where 2 differing penalties can be applied
to the same breach.
i have seen it done, wasnt sure what penalty was,never found out as guy missed ball and walked off!
it would be nice if r and a looked at it for future decisions, ....i would favour a dq, but its a harsh penalty.
phil got lucky but its not going to win him a us open.

It was tough yesterday but don't think it was insane eugene.
13, 15 and 18 were all difficult if you got in the wrong position.
Personally i enjoyed it hoping we have more of the same tonight

Ok mighty insane maybe a tad strong but when players are hitting decent approaches that are rolling 40+ yards away and they are 3 and 4 putting from literally no distance then it ain't right !
lots being made about the course but invariably the best player wins over 72 holes...doesn't matter if its +10 or -10 as the winning score
there are arguments about quickening greens over the course of a day & the element of luck over skill but that equually applies over here on the links courses we play in the open..more often than not the top players come to the fore which is why they are the best..they can adapt (or should be able to) in extreme conditions
golfers for the most part have pristine conditions in many tournaments...the us open makes you prove your ability and temperament to adapt

The draw/weather combo has never affected any other golf tournament right..........
A few bad pin positions and some are calling it CARNAGE..........
That S Stirks interviews are PAINFUL to watch..............

agree with geordie,
the examination paper is what it is. traditionally to with a us open you have to manage the adversity you face. It was tricky around the greens but rose for example got it up and down time after time.
Dustin had a shocking front nine but that was as much down to his poor tee to green play than around the greens.
Thought Koepka probably played the best yesterday whilst rose looks in the best place mentally.

no wind to speak of at moment picks up at about 2pm local to 10/12 knots...fowler 4 under through 10 mickelson.matsumua 3 under interesting in an hour when the 8+ start theres a few top players on that score justin grace woodland etc intesting if these player 7/8 over can post low scores.....use wind guru for wind pretty accurate normally
only 5 people under par so far today so still looks like scoring is tricky
dusty had the worst of the draw, and worst of yesterday
if he doesnt win today i cant agree best player has won
if he doesnt win today i cant agree best player has won
he had the same conditions as koepka yesterday and shot six shots worse.
he starts today no worse off score wise than anyone else in the field. I'm afraid if he doesn't win there aren't any excuses.

Watching yesterday feel Koepka and Rose are the ones I would be going for if I didn't already have a flutter, so just going to let my fat boy bet take its chances even though 3 behind.
great round by fleetwood. don't think 2 over will be good enough to win but still phenomenal round.
if greens dry out like yesterday fleetwood has won by a few shots
another us open wrecked by bumbling idiots
