On June 16th, the United States ranked the top two in the first round of the US Open, and five faces entered the competition list through the side door.

The contest, held at Par70, the Country Club Sports Recreation Center in Brooklyn, Massachusetts, brought together 156 contestants for a $17.5 million prize fund.

Adam Hadwin and David Lingmerth entered the game as substitutes when a player pulled out at the last minute. Callum Tarren, Joel Dahmen and MJ Daffue secured tickets through qualifying. In this group, Hadwin, Dahmen and Lingmerth won the PGA Tour Championship, but there was only one champion. Daffue participated in the Grand Slam for the first time and Tarren participated in the prestigious competition for the second time. But after the opening game, Hadwin topped the table with-4 points, while Taron, Limers, Daman and Duff were in T2 with-3 points (scoring-3), alongside Rory McIlroy-the player with four Grand Slam titles out of 21 PGA Tour titles.

Hadwin started on the first hole, taking two bogeys and six birdies to take a-4 lead on the 13th, and then kept the points with par until the end of the game. The whole T2 group starts from the 10th hole, and only Limers has no bogey. In contrast, McIlroy got this score on the 9th hole, so he let Hadwin monopolize the top spot.

T2 is followed by T7 (-2), with seven players, including former world No 1 Dustin Johnson, who has just "broken away" from the PGA Tour, returning to the LIV Golf Invitational Tournament invested by Saudi Arabia.

The first round summary recorded 25 players with negative points, among which-Group 1 ranked T14, including 12 players including defending champion Jon Rahm.

The opening period averaged 72.76 strokes, with 78 players in +2 or better positions. Type cutting follows the principle of top or T60. PGA Tour expert team predicted that the cutting line may be +3 or +4, and the probability of occurrence is close to 35%.
