U.S. Open Round 1 Recap / Round 2 Preview: Justin Thomas Leads Early (9/17) - a podcast by CBS Sports, Golf

Round 1 is in the books at the U.S. Open, we’re chatting about all the headlines from Thursday.

The legendary “man-sized” Winged Foot played a little easier today than it has historically. Why was scoring easier today and what can we expect as we head into the weekend (1:00)?

Justin Thomas, Patrick Reed and Rory McIlroy set the early pace on Thursday, who can separate and break away from the pack (4:45)?

Tiger Woods carded a rollercoaster 73 today, can Big Cat make the cut (12:35)?

Jordan Spieth, where to begin. Have we lost all hope for the 3-time major champion (16:45)?

Phil Mickelson couldn’t find a fairway to save his life today. Should that William Hill bettor be sweating his $45k to win $3 million bet (22:30)?

We wrap by looking ahead to Friday and the weekend, who do we like and who are we staying away from as conditions get tough at Winged Foot (30:30).
