Round 2 of the US Open at Pebble Beach is in the books. Graeme McDowell has the lead at 3-under par. But the story of the day was Phil Mickelson's 66. A very controlled 4-under for Lefty. He hit alot of greens and played almost a boring round for Phil. His putter was hot and he seems very comfortable after two days.
Also at 1-under is Ernie Els, Dustin Johnson and Ryo Ishikawa. Ernie is very seasoned with two US Opens under his belt. Dustin Johnson has won the last two AT&T Championships at Pebble Beach and then you have the 18 year old boy wonder.
Two holes were really interesting to watch today. The par 3 seventh hole playing at 113 yards really created some great interest. With a pin almost off the back side of the green and the hole playing down wind, you had to play very cautiously. The other hole was the par 5 14th hole. The green is just giving the players fits. Having played Pebble last October, I understand how difficult the third shot is.
Needless to say, the week-end is going to be very good golf.
