The maximum beneficiant estimate was once 120; Bryson DeChambeau guessed 100, however that’s simply at the entrance 9. Several of them have been sure they’d have to stroll in, having misplaced all in their balls.
As for the professionals? Take the final couple of US Opens to be held right here. Angel Cabrera received in 2007 with a last overall of +5. In 2016, Shane Lowry held a four-stroke lead going into the overall spherical handiest to shoot 76 and let Dustin Johnson in. This position – the jungle tough, the upturned-saucer vegetables, the excitable needle at the stimpmeter – makes mincemeat of the most productive of them. The lowest successful overall at a US Open here’s -5, and it took Ben Hogan to regulate that, for goodness sake.
