As I said on Friday night this weekend is all about watching how Rory would handle his lead, and today is more of that. I thought the 10 foot putt he made for par on #3 yesterday was an early turning point in his round, he settled in nicely after that. As I've said before, Rory has always had a nasty habit of missing 3 and 4 footers when his play starts to slip, it's always a key I look for, although he'll have to miss a bunch today with an 8 stroke lead..
Here are what some of the pros are tweeting..
Graeme_McDowell One word - #wow The golf this guy is playing right now is incredible
PaulAzinger Got to believe last weeks trip to Haiti changed Rory's life and perspective forever. Playing with a purpose other than your own. Go Rory!
PaulAzinger I loved the responses to Rory Q. Thx. I'm back home now and going to watch on TV. let's see if Rory can make history. Rooting for Rory!
Y_E_Yang I made the cut!
henrikstenson Let's see if I can shake off Johan today or if we are going to play together all four days?
IanJamesPoulter So good to wake up with the kids bouncing on the bed. What US Open I'm over it already. I hope Rory finishes it off in find fashion
KennyPerryGolf Can anyone catch Rory?
ogilviej If Rory closes the deal, let the Tiger comparisons begin, if he doesn't, Greg Norman comparisons inevitable. Not terrible either way
There is a 65% chance of bad weather in Washington around 3pm today, although the rain forecast for this morning did not arrive..
