Jim Furyk's 64 exception to morning rule Friday at U.S. Senior Open

Just two players shot under par on a blustery Friday morning at the U.S. Senior Open. Marcus Meloan barely finished in red numbers, posting a 1-under 69 around Omaha Country Club.

And then there was Jim Furyk.

The 51-year-old former U.S. Open winner fired what was by far the round of the morning wave, a 6-under 64 that moved him firmly back into contention at the year’s second-to-last senior major championship.

“I was able to see some putts go in, and I hit a lot of fairways, a lot of greens today, kept the ball in good places,” Furyk said.
