Preview:
We’ve had a couple of instances over the last decade when the setup has not met with the expected weather and it’s given us a winning score that we’re not used to seeing at a US Open.
After the 16-under-par Rory McIlroy romp at rain hit Congressional 10 years ago, the next two winning scores were over-par, suggesting that the USGA didn’t want a repeat, and following Brooks Koepka’s low-scoring demolition at Erin Hills four years ago, again with a record equalling -16 total, when the expected Wisconsin winds were non existent, the USGA toughen things up a bit too much at Shinnecock and we got another over-par winning score.
This will be the second time that the South Course has staged the US Open, having previously played host in 2008. That year Tiger and Rocco were the only players to finish in the red on one-under-par. The scoring average that week, in case you were wondering, was nearly three strokes over par.
