The First Cut Golf Golf Rests On Rory’s Shoulders | 2022 U.S. Open Round 1 Recap, Reaction & Analysis (PGA Tour Golf 6/16)
Rick Gehman, Kyle Porter and Greg DuCharme recap and react to Thursday's action at The Country Club.
The 122nd U.S. Open is underway Thursday with the pre-tournament favorite among the clubhouse leaders after the morning session. Rory McIlroy, who went off at 10-1 to win the national championship per Caesars Sportsbook, shot a 3-under 67 to top the morning wave, going bogey-free for 17 holes until the last as he fell back into a tie for the lead at The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts.
McIlroy began his quest for major No. 5 with a bang playing alongside 2021 Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama and Olympic gold medalist Xander Schauffele in a dynamite pairing. Neither is under par after their first rounds, though Collin Morikawa, Jon Rahm, Will Zalatoris and Adam Scott are notable names sitting two back of the co-leaders.
