It will be interesting to hear Phil talk about what he thinks of pulling his driver out of his bag after this round... Tee at 13, well back and well left...

Phil made up for with a beautiful second onto the green at the par5


Can't even describe what tiger's second did. From on the green to 40 yards back... 13 is an amazing golf hole...

I'd think that if Tiger gets in anywhere close to par he is going to be happy after the layoff.

The knee is going to hurt regardless. If you watch Tiger's swing in slow motion, the torque on his left knee is incredible.

Well my favorite (Phil) started off rough on the front 9 but pulled it back together to get back to EVEN on the day just 3 shots back. Hopefully he can keep steady enough to be in contention come sunday. I really think this course sets up good for him. Being in San Diego and the course he grew up on only gives him an advantage.

Eric Axley tied for 3rd. He plays golf at the CC i work at whenever he doesn't make the cut. Good to see him up at the top. A really nice guy.

the Golf Channel guys were blasting Phil over his lack of driver in the bag. Frankly, I don't think any of them can beat him. Nobilo, maybe back in the day, but not very often even then.

I'm no Mickelson guy, but those clowns should probably ease up a bit.

It really doesn't make much sense though. Those fairways are pretty generous by US Open standards.

but he can't hit the wide ones either. I don't like the play, but I gotta think he knows best how he's driving it.

The other thing is that at 11.5 degrees on that 3 wood, he probably isn't giving up quite as much as they are making it to be.

Maybe already mentioned, but where did Rick Reilly come from..

Boomer was horrible on last nights ESPN coverage, then they trot out Rick Reilly

Notes from day one...

-I'm Streel standing.
Hicks and Streelman managed to continue a curious tradition of whodats leading day one at the Open...

-Middlin Marquee.
In the end, the monster matchup gave us little more than two champs just takin' care of business on a thursday. As they are supposed to.

-Tiger Does the knee hurt?
Uh-huh.. Thanks Tiger.

-The USGA got it right.
The course soared, even if the hang gliders didn't.
Graduated rough, reasonable green speeds, and relative familiarity, made Torrey a joy to watch.... despite five hour rounds and typically high Open scoring.

-Hello Ernie!
Welcome back! (-1)... Put together three more old friend, I'd love to see it...

-Sergi-Yet Again.
+5... Damn.

-Vijay.
Even is very nice. Problem is always day four for Veej...

-Not Scott.
(+2) Why does the world's number three always seem to look like a deer in headlights when in the midst of a major?..

-Boomer sans nicknames.
ESPNs Berman went an entire evening without saying...'ground control to David Toms"... or any other traditional Bermanisms. ESPN reigning in the franchise?..

-Let Miller be Miller.
He bugs hell outta me sometimes, but I'd rather Johnny spoke his mind than mute himself ala Berman.

-Note to ESPN.
Your running leaderboard at the top of the screen is impossible to follow. What the hell are you thinking? Just give me a graphic with the name of the player I'm seeing.. his score.. shot... and club selection. Do the leaderboard all at once every now and then just like everyone else for Christ's sake!...



What, oh what does Friday hold!?...
