  • Golf Insiders: Jeff Babineau (Golfweek) describes the atmosphere at the 117th US Open

     
    Erin Hills is not a familiar course to a majority of the players in the field this week. The course boasts 138 bunkers that will prove to be truely hazardous for players who miss the fairway and the potentially bad weather is sure to bring them into play. Jeff Babineau identifies the final 6 holes as a window of opportunity where birdies can be made if weather permits. 
    “You feel like you're at the British Open” - Jeff Babineau on the atmosphere of Erin Hills

  • Golf Insiders: Golf Writers Association of America President, Gary VanSickle foresees weather conditions affecting the leaderboard this week

    After several blunders over the past few years, the USGA is under pressure to ensure that this year's US Open goes off without a hitch. While rules officials will be scattered across every hole at Erin Hills, the USGA is relatively helpless against the potentially inclement weather that threatens the area. Gary VanSickle reports that the US Open likes to air on the side of caution when it comes to weather, which may partially explain their decision to cut back the controversial fescue lining the fairways.
    On the positive side, players may have an advantage on the greens which should make for some dramatic play over the weekend.
    "“It’s hard to see the greens getting firm and fast with this weather.” - Gary VanSickle

  • Golf Insiders: Todd Lewis (Golf Channel) isn’t counting out the shorter hitters despite Erin Hills’ monstrous length

    Todd Lewis calls in LIVE from Erin Hills to offer his insight on what players will be dealing with this week. Despite the long nature of the course, Todd isn't counting out the shorter hitters.
    “I think we get intoxicated with length. You don’t win Major championships off the tee.”
