He's plus 3 thru 5 holes and tied for 76th....could be worse....Westwood is +3 too....LMAO His bio says born in NY but he is playing under the Green white and gold. Lives in St Augustine Florida and his college is University of North Florida

Watching him tee off on the par 3 7th hole. He hit a beauty off the tee, putted to within an inch for birdie and tapped in for par....well done on a biitch of a hole!.

He's now 4 over after 8, 4 pars and 4 bogeys. Hopefully he can keep it steady.

Took a screenshot of his current standings as it's worth noting who's keeping him company on +4!

hopefully he can make the cut, LOL at Westwood though, sky were talking him up like he had one hand on the trophy.

I know. And it's only pebble beach. I went around there 18 under the other day. Sure is was on Tiger Woods '10 on the PS3 but surely the real thing can't be any different.

Whoops. He ended up +12. Two bogeys, three double bogeys and only one par on the last 6 holes meant his day turned into a nightmare. He only hit 5 of 18 greens which did the damage.

Still respectable for such a young guy in his first US Open. Hopefully he can put in a better round tomorrow.

TRUE BLUE Waterford man. Feck the begrudgers!

ziedth

He's only from Waterford if he makes the cut

Speak Now

Won't be making the cut but what an expierence for the lad.

angry_fox

his tee-off time is 5 pm today irish time. He is starting from the 10th so hopefully he can do a bit better on 16, 17 18 since he will be hitting them early in his round.Hopefully he will string a few birdies together when he hits the front 9. Id say the cut will be about +5 or + 6 best of luck the lad

Speak Now

Played well today, shot 75 (+4).
+ 16 overall, beat Poor oul Michael Campbell anyway :pac:

ziedth

Fair play,

But going by tiger woods he should use his Gamebreaker a bit better

angry_fox

fair play to him, hopefully he can learn from the experience and go on to do better things
