It's Dustin Johnson's tournament, and we're all just along for the ride.
The world No. 1, who begins Saturday play at 3:10 p.m. ET, holds a commanding four-shot lead at the 2018 U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills over playing partner Scott Piercy and Charley Hoffman (even par).
The U.S. Open is known for being the most-difficult of golf's four major championships, and this week has been no different. The course on Long Island has humbled some of the world's best players, as Jordan Spieth, Rory McIlroy, Bubba Watson, Jason Day, Sergio Garcia, John Rahm and Tiger Woods all missed the weeknd cut.
Follow along as we provide updates from all the latest news on moving day.
Berger flirting with history
Daniel Berger is making a run on moving day! A two-time winner on the PGA Tour, Berger is one of six players under par so far on Saturday. He's currently 5-under thru 16 holes, proving there are birdies to be made on the course today.
Reed shows off from the bunker
Three-under thru five holes thanks to this hole-out from a green-side bunker. Not bad from the Masters champ!
Happy Birthday, Lefty!
It's Phil Mickelson's 48th birthday today, and knowing lefty, there's nowhere he'd rather be than on the golf course for the weekend of a major championship, especially the U.S. Open. Despite being one of the best to play the game, Mickelson, a five-time major champion, has been a runner-up six times (!!!) at the event. It's the only major he's never won.
Daniel Tosh: golf fan?
While we can't confirm or deny if the controversial comedian is watching the PGA Tour every weekend, we do know he's got his eyes glued to the TV this weekend. His nephew, Mickey DeMorat, is making his professional debut at the U.S. Open, and he made the cut! DeMorat tees off at 1:09 p.m. ET. At 4-over par, he's eight shots off the leader Dustin Johnson.
