What’s the cut? I always thought US Open was 60 and was mentioned on Sky last night. But official app has the line at 70 and seeing varying answers when I Google it.

In case you wondering just what's going to happen later in terms of the cull at the end of the second round, this explanation should do the trick:

The top 60 players (including ties) make the cut.
There is no 10-shot rule, which would include any player 10 shots within the lead.
These rules were implemented in 2012 to combat increasingly large weekend fields.
The US Open is one of the strictest majors. The PGA Championship includes the top 70 and ties, while The Masters keeps the top 50 but uses the 10-shot rule - so more than half of the field usually see play at the weekend.

DJ didn't find his ball there, how did he just drop out? Didn't hit a provo. Should he not have had to go back to the tee?

It was a penalty area (red stakes) not out of bounds

Enjoying this this evening. Deadly boring in the afternoon when the adults were playing.

Really impressed with Rory. Fabulous tee shot on 7. He seems to be in control of his game right now. Think he will go close.

It's not sky it's the host broadcast. Sky can't do anything about it, as infuriating as it is

big_drive

Mcilroy looks very in control of his game

Some run by McDowell, 4 birdies in a row

I think based on what I've seen so far that I expect this to come down to a battle between Rory and Brooks on Sunday.

Like a teenage breakup there between Spieth and Greller

I have to agree. It’s really taking me out of the relaxed zone I go into when I’m watching golf.

Incessant, intrusive and infuriating.

Great bunker shot from Rors.

Fowler having a mini meltdown.

How bad is that from Fowler, was 50 yards left of the green.

And that's why Rickie will never win a major.

It is extremely annoying. Also annoying is the positioning of the Sky logo on the bottom right of the screen which covers the player's current score.

I'm teeing off in 7.5 hours....enthralled here though so can't give up just yet

Some save from mcilroy there on 12. He’s gone favourite for the tournament and it’d be tough to bet against him the way he’s playing.

So Rory has a bogey and then compounds it by driving the ball too far and into the rough. We'll see how he does on this he but it's something I've noticed happening with him quite a bit of late.

So Rory goes and double bogeys the par 5 14th. As I said in my previous post, it's a bit of a problem for Rory where he compounds mistakes. All his good work undone in two holes and he's back at -3.
