The real story is the 19-year-old amateur, Matthew Fitzpatrick who was paired with Justin Rose, last year’s U.S. Open Champion and Phil Mickelson, the 6 time runner-up of the U.S. Open which is the only tournament keeping him from having won every grand slam.
Fitzpatrick shot a 71 (+1) in the first round behind Phil by a stroke with a par for the course (E). Rose is trailing behind the amateur and Mickelson after finishing with a 72 (+2).

Jordan Speith finished up there on the leaderboard thus far with a 69 (-1), two shots ahead of Fitzpatrick.
Jordan Spieth and Matthew Fitzpatrick tied for second. Can celebrate by hanging outside 7-11 and getting an old guy to buy beer for them.

The power trio, Bubba Watson, Charles Schwartzel and Adam Scott teed off at 1:25 ET. Bubba is coming off a hot win from the Masters while No. 1 in the world Adam Scott has high odds, yet has never managed to clinch a victory at the U.S. Open.
What a group: Charl Schwartzel, Adam Scott, and Bubba Watson. All Masters champs the last 4 years. #USOpen
