Oakmont, PA. – The players began to arrive in Oakmont Sunday with umbrellas and expectations for the US Open to live to their reputation of the Golf’s most difficult test.
Jordan Spieth was among the early arrivals, playing Front nine on Saturday and 11 holes on Sunday in the light, but a stable rain. It turns out that the USGA had a policy that no one could start no. 10. Spieth went first, returned to the ninth and headed for the ninth and headed to 10.
It was long. And it was wet. The area hit the rain on Friday, and the heavy rain was expected again Sunday afternoon. Like Oakmont wasn’t hard enough.
“This course was built as like this,” Spieth said. “So they don’t work much different from the golf course. You hit a good shot, you were awarded here. And if you don’t, you are in a big problem. It’s pure golf, you can’t be on it.”
Spieth held the result on this day – he gave 18-inch birds, after a 50-yard chip on a short par-4 17. And he was 2 under day. He also made a lot of chopping and putting. On one hole, he had when Caddy threw him a ball for a golf in Bunker. The grass was so thick that she chewed the balls before they reached the sand.
It was roughly as advertised, mostly pure density of it, and made it even harder considering how wet it is.
Spieth didn’t care so much about the grass from the float roads – everyone must deal with a team at some point during the United States. It was what followed.
“It increases after you make a mistake if you don’t play the right shot,” he said. “It’s not like a mistake is the end of the world. It could cost half a mortgage. You just have to take what it gives you.”
More than 60 players in the American open field were on the memory two weeks ago, which was also rough that was longer and thicker than normal. The growing grass this year was not a problem in the Ohio Valley. The difference is the speed of the oakmonta green – the fastest is the fastest in the country – not many forced brackets.
“This test here because you give you more runways to try to start it on green, you’re going to think you can do more than you should do more than you should do more than it should,” Spieth said. “It will be the biggest challenge this week – swallowing pride. Bogeys don’t hurt you. More and more will.”
Scottie Scheffler will be a favorite before the Oakmont Championship for a good reason, but what about everyone else? Let’s stay them all.
The forecast was for several scattered showers on Monday and then break from rain until the weekend.
Oakmont is hosted by the US open for a record 10. The road, and its reputation is strong enough that even the best can expect a strong test. First impressions, of course, I can be wrong.
Shane Lowry recalls to see him for the first time on Sunday 2016. He started 10, he played five holes and entered, wondering how he could ever manage a decent result around the oakmont. A week later he went to the final circle with fourfold water.
“It was tight and quickly when I played him on Sunday, and it was windy. We have a little rain that week, which helped us,” Lowry recalled.
The Flip page was Adam Scott. He first played Oakmont in the week before 2007. year, he opened with Geoff Ogilvy, who was rejected by the American champion opened in that year.
“I played really great that day and Geoff didn’t, so I felt really scratched because of myself,” Scott said. He returned a week later, feeling confident as always.
“I hit six greens in two days and flew back to Australia,” he said. “It’s really hard to hit me.”
