The 122nd US Open takes place on Thursday with the pre-tournament favorite among the club’s leaders after the morning session. Rory McIlroy, who sprinted 10-1 to win the National Championship, fired 3-under 67 to top the morning wave, and went out of the bogey for 17 holes to the last as he returned to tie for the lead at The Country Club in Brooklyn, Massachusetts.
McIlroy began his quest for fifth place with fanfare as he played alongside 2021 Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama and Olympic gold medalist Xander Schauffele in a pair of dynamite. Not within three strokes of The Ulsterman after their rounds, nor is there any other significant name from the early session. Brooks Koepka among the headlines in the afternoon. He is also trying to win his fifth US Open title for the third time. Koepka starts his tournament with world number one Scottie Scheffler and Players champion Cameron Smith.
