brief mention, we should before we get to the round tape on top of the hour.

Ira, U.S. Open. You got TV playing at the same time, right?

Heck, yes, I do, Sam. Nothing better than Lys Sports in the morning when you have a morning

sports talk show, and it's very rare. We used to have ESPN's 24-hour college basketball marathon

to tip off the season. That doesn't even happen anymore. So now it's mainly golf and a little bit of tennis,

maybe some in Olympic years we have stuff.

So U.S. Open coverage, Sam, started at 6.30 this morning,

which is absolutely glorious.

It's a beautiful Sunday day at Oakmont.

And we already have a bunch of players on the board under par.

There's like about 10 players that are under par.

Roy McElroy, in fact, is two under through four holes.

And he is one of the players under par.

Zander Schofley is one under through four holes.

So obviously super duper early.

Oberg, who one of the international guys in the field, he was actually 200 through 2.

He's now 1 through 5.

Sam, this course is the ultimate test. It is... US Open is supposed to be the toughest test in golf, and it is, and it's on the hardest

course probably in America.

The greens are insanely hard.

They have so much speed and slope to them.

They are, and they're huge.
