U.S. Open: Follow Rickie Fowler, Wyndham Clark, Rory McIlroy and others Saturday in Los Angeles
Rickie Fowler enters the weekend with a one shot lead over the field at Los Angeles Country Club
LOS ANGELES — It’s officially Moving Day in Southern California.
Rickie Fowler enters the third round of the U.S. Open at Los Angeles Country Club with a one-shot lead over the rest of the field, thanks largely to his record-setting opening-round 62. He made eight birdies and six bogeys on Friday en route to his 2-under 68.
Fowler’s last win came at the 2019 Waste Management Phoenix Open, and he’s never won a major championship.
Wyndham Clark got to 9-under in the Friday morning wave, and enters his first U.S. Open weekend just a shot back. Rory McIlroy is at 8-under with Xander Schauffele.
While those three are a big step ahead over the rest of the field, several big names are in a position to make a run before Sunday’s final round. Dustin Johnson, Scottie Scheffler and even former U.S. amateur champion Sam Bennett are all in a good spot with 36 holes to go.
