The 2023 U.S. Open continues Friday with three days of pristine golf remaining at Los Angeles Country Club. Hosting the nation’s championship for the first time in 75 years, LACC saw some of the best golfers in the game post record-low numbers Thursday to create a stacked leaderboard that should be a ton of fun to watch over the ensuing 54 holes. Follow along with live U.S. Open leaderboard coverage during Round 2.
The expectation entering this 123rd playing of the U.S. Open was that Scottie Scheffler, Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka would duel with the rest of the start-studded field looking up at them. Instead, it was Rickie Fowler and Xander Schauffele out in front after making U.S. Open history by firing 62s in the first round. Those scores match the lowest ever in a major championship round with Branden Grace previously scoring 62 in the third round of the 2017 Open Championship.
Whether Fowler and/or Schauffele will be able to keep it up entering the weekend remains to be seen, but Fowler got off to a hot start in Friday’s second round. Pressing the leaders is Rory McIlroy, who went 3 under Friday to sit firmly in third by the time he entered the clubhouse. It is the first time since the 2014 PGA Championship, which he won, that McIlroy has shot consecutive rounds of 67 or lower to open a major.
