To hit that many really good golf shots over 4 days is incredible. That is the best golf I have ever seen from any player, ever.

I'm so used to tracers now it's strange watching without knowing where the ball is going right away, were very spoiled nowadays

Where were the greats like Anika strostom ? and Ochawa ? They should be after retirement, be sitting amongst the committee in the body of Golf organisations.

The only two people reporters have been so amazed to laugh at shots, Rory and Tiger.

blair Stott says:

Go back to titleist, too many driver changes with Taylormade

I’ve never been a Rory fan but he destroyed this course. He did win me as a fan during that final round at Augusta 2022. Tee to green was impeccable at this US open.

Commentators are too quiet in the mix.
