US Open 2026: golf updates on day two – live
Some quotes from Collin Morikawa after his, so far, best-of-the-day 65. That 5-under lap has taken him to tied fourth.
“I chipped it a lot better than I did yesterday. I mean, I went through my round yesterday, and I had at least four, probably five, maybe six up-and-downs, pretty basic up-and-downs, that I just flubbed.
“Then that’s the difference of kicking yourself out of a tournament, keeping yourself in it. Thankfully today, you know, got off to a good start, hit a couple of good iron shots, but at the same time, made the up-and-downs. Then that was kind of the big change, I think, for today.
“I love this golf course. I think it’s grown on me throughout the week. I think when I showed up, you know, it was nice, and everyone had high remarks for it. I just looked at it as this is the next test for me, but I think it’s grown on me.
“Especially with this wind that we’ve had. I think with the north wind, it plays very, very weird, but with the south we had yesterday and the west we’re having right now, I think it plays as a great golf course.”
