Some big names gathering at 2-under. Here’s a list:
Bryson DeChambeau (13)
Tony Finau (13)
Jon Rahm (12)
Xander Schauffele (12)
Rickie Fowler (11)
So, here are the 2020 Driving Distance rankings of the current top five. Reed isn’t a huge hitter but the others clearly are. Not exactly earth-shattering news I know but, hey, nothing is happening so far that goes against the idea that, even on a US Open track with deep rough, blasting it miles is a big help.
Justin Thomas 35th
Patrick Reed 108th
Rory McIlroy 4th
Thomas Pieters 8th
Bryson DeChambeau 1st
