US Open at LA CC - Playing an Unfamiliar Course

First US Open nerves!

18 at LACC North. 80 yards wide, totally flat. Completely takes the tension out of the tee shot, basically turns the hole into a one shot hole where everyone gets a good lie from the fairway, but the longer guys get a head start.

I do not understand the argument that this is better than a normal width fairway where if you hit a drive off-line you are penalized.

@tda023 How is that Wyndham Clark pick looking now? 100/1 probably not anymore! Good call

Assuming Nagano finishes in the top 10 or 15 is it a more unlikely result than club pro Block at the PGA? Seems pretty similar. A journeyman on the JAPAN tour is probably pretty similar skill to a top US club pro.
