The third major championship of the 2022 season of golf has arrived amidst a controversy raging behind the scenes. However, the USGA has ensured that as little wind as possible gets out of the sails of its first event as contenders for the 2022 US Open battle The Country Club. It will be the first time since 1988 that a national champion has been crowned in Brooklyn, Massachusetts, and some of the top competitors are entering with momentum playing their best golf this season in recent times.
This year’s theme is set with a course filled with most of the world’s best golfers. Masters champion Scotty Scheffler and PGA Championship winner Justin Thomas are looking to redouble their efforts. Schaeffler aims to become the sixth golfer to win the Masters and US Open titles in the same season, while Thomas is aiming to become the seventh in history to win titles in the PGA and US Open titles, respectively.
However, both are not the favorites in Brooklyn. That honor goes to Rory McIlroy, who has more momentum than anyone else in the field after defending his title at the RBC Canadian Open. McIlroy has three other Top 10 finishes in his previous four starts and is one of only four golfers to finish in the top ten in three (or more) of his last five US games.
However, the man who grabbed the most headlines this week was Phil Mickelson, who missed his first two majors of the year amid fallout from the controversial comments. Mickelson returned to action last week and entered the country club still seeking a US Open title to wrap up his Grand Slam career. Unlike in 2021, when Lefty entered the US Open after winning a major, this year Lefty has played only three rounds of competitive golf over the past four and a half months. There should be no doubt that his second place finish in his six career at the US Open continues to haunt him, and his top 10 in the event since 1995 shows that he is in the thick of it often.
While attending the US Open can be a lot of fun, just being able to watch golf in the biggest stages of the game is incredible fun every year. Here at CBSSports.com, we’re happy to bring you comprehensive coverage of the US Open all week long.
