US Open

[JK]

Been keen on DJ for the open and have tipped him to win it. Course is quite well suited to him

[JK]

Classic 2'nd round from Danny

[Smudge]

<p>Johnson looking like the one to beat - Lowry is showing a few jitters, and is a shot behind Johnson now.</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>Shane Lowry started the day with a 4 stroke lead and is now 1 behind Johnson.</p>

[canefan]

<p>How's DJ looking?  Is it time to shed his "one of the best to not win a major" tag?</p>

[Chris B.]

<p>Two shot lead through 10 for Johnson.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Poor old Landry cracked - today's outward nine - bogey, bogey, par, bogey, double bogey, par, bogey, bogey, par. +7 through nine.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Lee and Wilkinson finished at +14 and +16 respectively.</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>after speed wobbles, Lowry back tied for lead at -4 with DJ.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Still think it is DJs to lose.</p>

[Chris B.]

<p>Jim Furyk's -1 in the clubhouse is climbing the leaderboard as the cracks start to appear.  :)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Johnson -4</p>
<p>Lowry -3</p>
<p>Piercy -2</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You'd think it would come from these three - most likely DJ as he has only 3 to play. If he can do them in par I reckon he wins it.</p>

[Chris B.]

<p>Furyk in second equal now - but, Johnson has been staunch. Still -4 and a solid tee shot made on 18.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>His only worry is that he's got a potential penalty stroke for a ball moving - but, it's no worry if he can avoid double bogey.</p>

[Chris B.]

<p>Hits a superb 2nd to about two feet from the hole. Nails a nasty downhill that rolls left and gathers pace to move to five under and Lowry has cracked.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Regulation blonde golf wife in a mini dress almost squeezes out a tear as she wonders how to spend the cheque.   :)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Edit: I'm reminded that she's Wayne Gretzky's daughter.</p>

<p>He got into drug probs didn't he?  It's golf so obviously not PEDs ;)</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>Got suspended for failing Cocaine tests.... twice!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Legend!</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>and shagging someone else on tours Missus wasn't it?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good on him though, I like the way he plays the game!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Man there are some good golfers on tour at present!</p>

[canefan]

<p>I don't think it helped that he is not an ugly man.  Easy not to root for a guy that seems to have it all</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>All the big names in Golf are firing up on Twitter at the USGA. Calling it a real amatuer hour in how they ruled Dustin's penalty shot.</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>conspiracy time? They didn't want him to win?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is pretty shit, especially for Lowry who did get back to even with him, or 1 ahead if they imposed the penalty.</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>Jusst crap, isn't it. Official ruling on the course should always stand.</p>

[mariner4life]

<p>some of the slopes of the greens on this course are fucking stupid. Some "good" shots end up rolling 5m off the green. What's the fucking point? Who plays there normally? And why would you? </p>

[JK]

<p>Didnt see much of this as away on Thailand for work but did DJ get penalised in the end or not?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I see he won. Cant check TAB account though as app seems to be blocked here</p>
