Justin Thomas' Unforgettable 63 in the 2017 U.S. Open at Erin Hills | History Makers

It’s nice to see JT and I make the same amount of Pars per round ....

very well said sir ,, I smiled reading that 😁

299 yard 3 wood to 6 feet is absolutely astonishing

[@kylewhitehurst1476]

I was in that 18 grandstand. Nobody even knew he was hitting till it dropped by the cup 😂

[@zachcal4328]

Unbelievable 3 wood shots. Literally unbelievable

[@sammaier4485]

At 2:25, the announcer claims that "That's like the putt Tiger made at the Masters, years ago at 16". Yep, that putt he made with his wedge from off the green. That PUTT

[@josephh957]

Exactly why I'm glad that Fox isn't broadcasting the US Open anymore. Listening to Joe Buck (among others on their broadcast team) talk about golf is frustrating

[@TheLocalLt]

Fox wasn’t great but this is Azinger who is a good commentator and is Miller’s longtime protege as a broadcaster. He may have just been misquoting the 2005 chip as you say, but he also may have been thinking of a similar putt to JT’s here on the 16th in 1997 that Tiger didn’t make, but hit a masterful lag from 40 feet having to start with his back to the hole.

[@RecklessRusty]

That bothered me too

[@nobiclarke]

That second shot into 18 was filthy

[@Taureg]

This was one of my favorite US opens, just a beautiful, unforgiving course that took ultimate talent to tame.

[@cforgione100]

Really ? It was one of the easier ones

[@justinbratton1235]

Crazy too because he choked that other eagle look

[@jhaz89]

Choked? Missing a 7 foot putt every now and then isn't choking.

[@justinbratton1235]

@@jhaz89 Yeah but that was a great look for Eagle. Should have had it. Still an amazing round of golf regardless.

[@jhaz89]

@@justinbratton1235 you can't make everything though. What about all the putts he did make? That's ridiculous to expect him to make every single putt. You have to look at the broad spectrum of things. Even steph curry, the greatest shooter of all time, misses wide open threes sometimes. You're living in a dream world if you think that making every putt that is makeable. I think the make percentage from 7 feet for pros is about 50%. So that's hardly "choking." You just sound like a douche saying the word choke. Oh and stop liking your own comments

[@plutoniumrocket]

This is a good example of just how hard it its to win these tournaments.

[@justineller6718]

I caddie here and still can't believe he did this... unbelievable round

[@br5448]

agreed unbelievable. So many incredible shots to 1-8 feet. / Some commenters are saying these were easier conditions for a US Open. Wondering your opinion. Did they make Erin much more difficult than on a typical day?

[@justineller6718]

@@br5448 good question. They definitely made the course conditions tougher. The fescue was considerably longer than how it normally is.(Knee to waste high in some spots) They keep it cut down for the most part during regular season. It played right around 7,800 yards so not a short course by any stretch (but distance doesn't matter for those guys) We also had quite a bit of rain before the tournament and little to no wind during the tournament making conditions exceptionally soft for a US Open. That's why it played a little "easier" in my opinion.

[@br5448]

@@justineller6718 interesting. Thank you for taking the time to answer. I played a couple courses after US Open's and it was astoundingly difficult. At least for those of us that haven't seen certain shots before, such as high thick grass immediately next to the green. Thomas sure made it look easy. I suppose we'd have to see the average score that day and compare it to other Open days to see just how low he went...

Johnny Miller shot 63 in the final round of The 1973 US Open to win the tournament so I'm confused as to why they're saying it's never been done before. It's been done to win at Oakmont, I believe it was.

[@Bobba8590]

In relation to par. But yeah they were wrong.

[@mrjeff4832]

I think Justin said later, "If you're gonna wear pants like that, you've gotta play good!"

[@A-FrameWedge]

A 63 is a great score on any course and especially the US Open but this US Open had the lowest scores for any US Open, and is not even in the same universe as Johnny Miller's 63 at Oakmont in 1973 final round.

[@scottadams5901]

Ok

[@foreword_858]

Erin hills is one of the toughest courses on the planet and casually shows up in pink pants and drops a dime of a 63. WOW.

[@nickmoscarelli144]

And he could’ve easily had 60.

[@houkuanchoi2223]

couldve shouldve wouldve, you can always play better even if you shoot 54 lol

[@nickmoscarelli144]

HOU KUAN CHOI my point is that it’s crazy he even had a legit chance at 60-62 on the back nine at the US OPEN.

[@jhaz89]

@@nickmoscarelli144 yeah but it's just unrealistic because all the things he did get taken for granted. Like he could have just as easily missed that eagle putt at the end. 8 footers are at best 50% make rate on the PGA tour. So it's like the type of thing where a player will make 4/5 of those type of putts and people will say "and he easily could have made that putt on hole...."

As does chambers bay. So at least they're consistent in picking shit courses.

JHaz I may delete my comment just to delete yours with it! Shinnecock hills is one of America’s most historic courses dating back to the 1800s, a founding member club of the USGA, and universally recognized as a top 5 course in the country. Chambers bay and Erin hills are wannabe 2010s era ripoffs of the great Long Island course.

[@jhaz89]

@@TheLocalLt haha I'm trolling. I have no problem. Although I recall one major happening where the greens were ridiculous. Although that was more because the USGA parched the greens.

[@TheLocalLt]

JHaz haha okay good I would have questioned your sanity. And nah in 04 the greens were literally like glass but only one of them really got out of control, they put water on it in between groups. The rest of them were just unbelievably fast, which helped to amplify just how unreal Retief goosen’s putting performance was. Guys were putting balls off greens all day while goosen went around with like 9 one-putts. It was ridiculous and he stole the Open from Phil with his flagstick. Of course Phil’s own flagstick cost him at 17, a hole where the speed of the greens finally exposed his less-than-confident putting stroke
