The 124th U.S. Open is underway at Pinehurst No. 2 in, well, Pinehurst, North Carolina.
From the jump, the field is chasing top-ranked Scottie Scheffler — who is on a heater not seen since Tiger Woods' heyday. Scheffler will tee off in the afternoon wave (1:24 p.m. ET to be exact) along with Rory McIlroy and Xander Schauffele. By then, they'll have a good idea of how difficult the course is playing.
So far, it's been very tough.
Brooks Koepka, who has won this tournament twice, looked like he was making an early run for a third initially.
