Here are the top moments from Friday at the 2024 U.S. Open in North Carolina.

Tiger Woods carded a 3-over 73 in the second round of the U.S. Open on Friday and was 7-over 147 after 36 holes, missing the cut by 2 strokes.

Francesco Molinari made the cut at the U.S. Open on Friday by sinking a hole-in-one on the par-3 ninth hole.

Here are the tee times for the third round of the 124th U.S. Open.

Nelly Korda missed her second straight cut after winning six of seven events, rallying Friday but falling a stroke short of advancing to weekend play in the Meijer LPGA Classic.

Pinehurst No. 2 got the best of World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler on Friday, but after a 3-over 74, he still finished at 5-over to make the cut on the number at the U.S. Open.

Tyrrell Hatton is known for his piquant thoughts on golf course setups and profane self-flagellation seemingly every time a shot goes awry but his greatest challenge during tournament weeks is lunch in the locker room.

“The sound of people chewing, it drives me mad,” he says, citing Haotong Li as the worst offender. At home, Hatton plays music during meals because, he says, “I can’t stand to hear myself chew.”

It’s not easy being wired like Hatton. Just driving around his native England often sets him off. “I just have to vent in the car, maybe do a little shouting. I’m not going to follow the person that cut me off and have a tear at them, though sometimes I want to.”

Yet somehow this cat on a hot tin roof is thriving on golf’s most stressful course at its most pressure-packed championship. With rounds of 68-71, Hatton is in contention at the 124th United States Open. He is already halfway to a unique Grand Slam, having flipped the bird at both the Masters and Open Championship. But now this six-time winner on the European Tour, and champion of the 2020 Arnold Palmer Invitational, is in position to become known for more than just his temper.

And the key is—get this!—being a little more chill.

Sepp Straka made a hole-in-one at Pinehurst No. 2 during the second round of the U.S. Open, six holes after he hit the flagstick on his way to a triple bogey.

On the 25th anniversary of Payne Stewart's U.S. Open victory, two integral figures reflect on the creation of golf's most famous statue.

I’ve not been shy about my love of major-themed golf gear. There’s a reason my X (Twitter) scrolling rapidly intensifies around each major tournament.

Oh, you’re looking for some, too? Once I saw the ticket prices for Sunday, I knew the merch tent wasn’t going to be an option. Luckily for you and me, the internet exists and it’s full of some fantastic U.S. Open shoes, apparel and accessories.

Here are a few of my favorites.
