The action heats up in more ways than one for the US Open

Conditions are set to be the best yet this Major season with North Carolina temperatures soaring beyond 90°F throughout the 124th US Open.

The weather has done its best to throw a spanner in the works at the season’s first two majors with thunderstorms and 40 mph gusts at The Masters followed by fog delays at the PGA Championship. However, the golfing gods appear to have looked down favorably on America’s ‘Home of Golf’ this week, offering up four glorious days of bright warm skies with low winds for the US Open.

That doesn’t mean a birdie bonanza is on the cards, however. Pinehurst’s Course No.2 will provide challenge enough for the 156-man field when the action gets underway on Thursday for one of the most demanding tests of the season.
