"Not every day you enjoy a round of golf with an 8 on the card, but I'm a pretty happy man", Casey said. But I couldn't have shot any higher. It's just been trying to figure it out on and around the greens.
Johnson was hitting it so well that he appeared to be safe even when he was on the cut line.
There are 68 players who made the cut at the U.S. Open, but a whopping 42 of them are under par.
At Rancho Mirage in early April, Thompson was given the four-shot penalty with six holes to play in the final round.
"It will be just fine", said Fowler, who plays in the third-to-last group on Saturday.
"I'm a part of history". "But as we all know, this game's all about putting". So I'm sure that the wind will stop scoring being as low as it has been. "I'm like, 'Let's get to 8, let's get to 9, ' whatever it is". "To shoot a good round like today, I'm certainly looking forward to the weekend".
You wouldn't know what to make of it all, if you thought about it too much. And I feel like once the can gets open, I'll start pouring them in.
Dustin Johnson, Rory McIlroy and Jason Day made the wrong kind of history at the U.S. Open.
Justin Rose, Davis Love IV, Henrik Stenson, Adam Scott, Bubba Watson and Graeme McDowell will not be in contention for the 117th US Open title. Thirty-two golfers shot under-par on Saturday, presenting a Round 4 where none of the top-16 golfers have won a major championship.
McIlroy and Day needed low rounds to have any chance of advancing to the weekendm and neither was able to produce anything near what was necessary.
Lowly Auckland Blues humble British and Irish Lions
We gave a lot of unforced penalties away and put ourselves under pressure with back-to-back errors. Replacements: K Owens, J McGrath, D Cole, M Itoje, CJ Stander, R Webb, J Sexton, A Watson.
If you're searching for a player a bit down the leaderboard to make a push, don't overlook Martin Kaymer. I wish he was calling it just to hear what he would have said.
"I felt the most calm I have in a major in a long time this week", said Day, who arrived last Friday. "I was a little anxious starting out yesterday and it caught up to me".
Those are just a few of the possible winners.
McIlroy has a hectic schedule again. McIlroy is headed for the Travelers Championship next week in CT, and he has three straight tournaments starting with the Irish Open through the British Open. After another week, it's the WGC-Bridgestone and PGA Championship.
And it is another milestone in a remarkable start to 2017 for Thomas. "That was the best shot I hit all day".
The course was set up at 7,845 yards, the longest of any major.
"I put it in the wrong places, ' he said". I know that sounds insane, but if Garcia fires a 67 or 66 on Saturday, he'll be right in the mix.
"I've never led a U.S. Open, so tomorrow will be a very cool experience".
Thomas, decked out in fluorescent pink trousers, was on the move quickly with a birdie-birdie start and had an even hotter finish to his front nine, carding birdies on four-of-five closing holes, including the last three to move to seven-under.
Wisconsin's other representative in the tournament, 23-year-old Jordan Niebrugge of Mequon, also made the cut after matching Stricker with rounds of 73 and 72.
