SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. -- The U.S. Open is supposed to be hard. But this hard? The first round at Shinnecock Hills brought some of the highest scores in two decades. With no rain in the forecast, and the wind still set to blow, the question is whether the USGA will dial the course back a bit and give the players a chance or continue to exact revenge for all those low scores a year ago at Erin Hills.
Some of the world's -- that's you Dustin Johnson and Justin Rose -- best dealt with it just fine.
