BROOKLINE, Mass., June 16 — Tournament favourite Rory McIlroy was among the five-man pack sitting one shot back of Canada’s Adam Hadwin after the first round of the US Open yesterday while Phil Mickelson struggled a week after making his LIV Golf debut.
The long-time fan favourite bogeyed three of his first five holes and then made a double-bogey at the par-three sixth where he four-putted from 12 feet. “Even though I’m standing up here slightly frustrated that I bogeyed the last, it’s a great start to the tournament,” said McIlroy, who has gone nearly eight years since winning the last of his four major titles. “Just basically did everything that you need to do at a US Open.”
“Not much better of a start to a US Open I don’t think that you can ask for. I did a lot of good things,” said Hadwin. Of those golfers, none fared better than the long-hitting Johnson and the worst score of the bunch was the 12-over 82 carded by Australian Jed Morgan.
