U.S. Open Round 1 Recap / Round 2 Preview: Justin Thomas Leads Early (9/17)

Round 1 is in the books at the U.S. Open, we’re chatting about all the headlines from Thursday. The legendary “man-sized” Winged Foot played a little easier today than it has historically. Why was scoring easier today and what can we expect as we head into the weekend (1:00)? Justin Thomas, Patrick Reed and Rory McIlroy set the early pace on Thursday, who can separate and break away from the pack (4:45)? Tiger Woods carded a rollercoaster 73 today, can Big Cat make the cut (12:35)? Jordan Spieth, where to begin. Have we lost all hope for the 3-time major champion (16:45)? Phil Mickelson couldn’t find a fairway to save his life today. Should that William Hill bettor be sweating his $45k to win $3 million bet (22:30)? We wrap by looking ahead to Friday and the weekend, who do we like and who are we staying away from as conditions get tough at Winged Foot (30:30). ————————— Check us out on YouTube for video podcasts and exclusive content, visit https://www.youtube.com/FirstCutPodcast 'First Cut' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts.  Follow @FirstCutPod on Twitter and Instagram Follow our hosts on Twitter: @KylePorterCBS, @mark_immelman, @RickRunGood, @therealGFD For more golf coverage from CBS Sports, visit https://www.cbssports.com/golf/ To hear more from the CBS Sports Podcast Network, visit https://www.cbssports.com/podcasts/ To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
