US Open 2024 Live Blog: Bryson DeChambeau Wins Second US Open

The third major of the year, the US Open 2024, will take place this year at Pinehurst Golf & Country Club on the legendary Pinehurst No. 2 course. This year, the golf world’s elite will be battling it out for the prestigious title from June 13 to 16.

The US Open 2024 Live Blog

Pinehurst No. 2 is hallowed ground for golf fans and has long been one of the most famous golf courses in the world. The course designed by Donald Ross (opened in 1907) looks back on more than 110 years of history and has already hosted the Ryder Cup, the PGA Championship, the US Open and the US Womens Open. The course’s greens are particularly famous. Unlike at many courses, it does not mean that a ball that lands on the green will stay there. This is because most of the putting surfaces are domed, which means that many shots that do not land exactly in the targeted area roll back down.

Last year, Wyndham Clark secured victory in the “Open American”. This earned him 600 FedEx Cup points as well as prize money of 3.6 million US dollars. In addition to the best golfers in the world and some amateurs, players who have secured a place in the field via the numerous qualifying tournaments also compete against each other at the US Open.

The field – strong competition

A number of LIV players have also qualified for the tournament in various ways and will be traveling to North Carolina: Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, Cameron Smith, Dustin Johnson and Phil Mickelson, among others, will be competing. Martin Kaymer will also be competing for the Major title this week, which he already secured in 2014 on the same course.

US Open 2024: Frosty Final Round For Rory McIlroy

The 124th US Open has set the stage for a thrilling final showdown at Pinehurst No. 2. While many eyes might be on the final pairing of Bryson DeChambeau and Matthieu Pavon, golf aficionados know the real drama lies in the group just ahead, where Rory McIlroy and Patrick Cantlay will tee off at 2:10 PM local time.

Rory McIlroy’s Tee Times for the US Open 2024

Rory McIlroy joins Patrick Cantlay for the final round of the US Open 2024

This pairing is not just about golf; it’s a saga of personal friction and competitive fire. Rory McIlroy, the Northern Irish superstar, has had a notably tense relationship with Cantlay. McIlroy has publicly referred to Cantlay in less-than-flattering terms, calling him a “dick”. This comment alone set the stage for what promises to be an intense round. The tension doesn’t stop there. Cantlay’s caddie, Joe LaCava, and McIlroy had a heated exchange during the Ryder Cup in Rome. The incident escalated on the green and nearly turned physical later at the Marco Simone clubhouse, if not for the intervention of fellow golfer Shane Lowry. This background drama only adds to the intrigue of their pairing.

As they step onto the course, the atmosphere is expected to be frosty. The hot temperatures in North Carolina are also not helping to cool the heated situation down. Cantlay, known by his nickname “Patty Ice,” is reputed for his calm demeanor under pressure, but this final round will test both his and McIlroy’s composure. Fans can expect a highly charged encounter, where every glance and every word exchanged will be scrutinized. The dynamic between McIlroy and Cantlay could very well impact their performance on this challenging course. Both golfers are known for their skill and tenacity, but personal animosity can either fuel exceptional performance or lead to critical mistakes.

US Open 2024 Live Scores

As the final round unfolds, all eyes will be on this duo. Will McIlroy channel his frustration into a stellar performance, or will Cantlay’s icy calmness prevail? The outcome remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: The drama, the stakes, and the personalities involved ensure that this will be a round talked about for long.

Foot Injury: Jon Rahm Withdraws LIV Event – Start at US Open Jeopardised?

Jon Rahm is not happy with his sporting life at the moment. The LIV Golf League‘s multi-million purchase is unfamiliar with the competitive circuit, isn’t really getting into his stride as a golfer either, hasn’t played a role in the majors so far this year – tied 45th at the Masters Tournament, missed the cut at the PGA Championship – and now even has to fear for his start at the US Open this week on the No. 2 course at Pinehurst.

Jon Rahm’s US Open 2024 in jeopardy?

Rahm, now number seven in the world, is suffering from inflammation in his left foot and had to pull out of the LIV event at the weekend in Houston/Texas during the second round as a result. The problems had already become apparent on the opening day; according to the LIV, the two-time major winner from Spain probably has a cut between his toes, which has apparently become infected. However, the bookmakers still have Rahm at 16-1 odds to win his second US Open triumph after Torrey Pines in 2021.

St. Andrews: “Irresponsible and Reckless” Approach Shot from Pavement

The Home of Golf: St. Andrews. (Image: Getty)
The Home of Golf: St. Andrews. (Image: Getty)

On the pavement outside the Dunvegan Hotel in St Andrews, Scotland, a guy chases a golf ball over the rooftops of ‘The Auld Grey Toon’ towards the St. Andrews Old Course, 18th green. And hits it – the green, fortunately not some evening strollers in front of the clubhouse of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club. Some celebrate the guy as a hero, he also celebrates himself and even tries to market his ‘Dunvegan Shot’.

Criticism of the golf swing and statement from St Andrews

Others – rightly and fortunately in the majority – shake their heads at the absurd action. The St Andrews Links Trust is also not amused by Wyatt Messmer’s behaviour: ‘This is an irresponsible and reckless act that shows disregard for the safety of the public and property. This type of behaviour is not welcome at the Home of Golf and we would discourage anyone from repeating it.” Well, passion for golf can sometimes lead to truly strange behaviour.
