Scheffler: “I think the areas around the green are extremely difficult to play out of, and the grainy Bermuda makes it more difficult and limits options and creativity if you have an into-the-grain lie.”
McIlroy: Focus on “being patient and embracing the difficult conditions, the style of golf needed to contend at a U.S. Open. At Pinehurst and most Donald Ross courses, it’s on and around the greens.”
Schauffele: “I’ve never swing so hard on my putter for nine holes than I did today (practice round), just trying to get up and down mounds.”
