When the 117th U.S. Open begins Thursday at Erin Hills in rural Wisconsin, less than a third of the 156-player field has even a remote chance of winning. You see, the U.S. Golf Association, which conducts the second of golf’s majors (though it might be the third as of 2019 at Pebble Beach), bills the U.S. Open as Golf’s Toughest Test. Erin Hills is the longest course in major championship history.
Alejandro Canizares overcame a slow start to card a 2-under 70 on Friday and keep his one-stroke lead after the second round of the Austrian Open.
