US Open-Update: Andrew Landry Holds a 1 Stroke Lead With Play In-Progress

The players are completing Round 1 and attempting to finish Round 2 following yesterday's extensive rain delay. Following two scrambling pars to start his weather-delayed opening round, Dustin Johnson was perfect – posting three birdies and not a single bogey to move into second place at the U.S. Open. DJ's bogey-free round was the first bogey-free round in a U.S. Open at Oakmont since Loren Robert's third round in 1994. Johnson, who finished runner-up to Jordan Spieth last year at Chambers Bay, played a quintessential U.S. Open round with birdies at Nos. 6, 11 and 14 for 3-under 67 that left him one stroke off the lead. His stress-free opening effort was short lived, however, with Johnson heading back out for Round 2 about an hour after signing his first-round card.“It's going to be a long day. I still do everything exactly how you would if you were just playing 18,” Johnson said. “It's nice to go and get 36 holes, 36 straight holes.” Meanwhile, Bubba Watson stands at -1 under par after Round 1, Jordan Spieth is at +2 over par and OWGR #1 Jason Day is at +6 over par.
