Rahm began his second round at Oakmont Country Club on the first hole and got off to a strong start with a 2nd hole birdie. After a run of pars Rahm turned in 1-under 34 putting himself in position to make the 36-hole cut.

On the back nine Rahm seesawed back and forth a bit. He bogeyed 10, birdied 11, bogeyed 12 and then birdied the 13th to remain 1-under for the day. Needing a strong finish Rahm played even-par golf the rest of the way with a bogey and birdie on No. 17 to finish the closing nine in even-par 35 and inside the midway point cutline.

THURSDAY RECAP

Scottie Scheffler was one of only a handful of players to finish there first round on a rain soaked Thursday at Oakmont Country Club and he finds himself at the top of the leaderboard. Scheffler, a junior at Texas, was among the first players to tee off in the 116th U.S. Open and with play called for the day his 1-under 69 has him tied for fourth.

Scheffler began his round on the 10th hole and he started his U.S. Open career in style with a birdie. Following a string of pars it appeared as if the wheels might have fallen off a bit after bogeys on Nos. 18 and 1 but the 2015 Phil Mickelson Freshman of the Year was able to get things moving in the right direction once more.

The turnaround began on the 615 yard par-5 4th with a birdie getting him back to even-par for the day. Scheffler was then able to move into red figures once more with a birdie on No. 7, his third of the day. Following two pars Scheffler posted his 69 and the lowest score ever by an amateur in the first round of a Oakmont U.S. Open.

"I had a few good days off to rest at home in Dallas and (then) started practicing with my coach Randy (Smith) and then just hung out with some friends and just relaxed," Scott Scheffler told Fox Sports 1 of his tournament preparation. "Then I got here on Sunday and started getting ready for the tournament."

Scheffler will have a long time to wait before he begins his second round with more then half of the field yet to begin their first round. However, the wait will not influence his game plan as the week moves forward.

"We will see what the lead is at but I don't think my game plan is going to change to much," Scheffler said. "I am just going to try and get the ball into play and see what I can do from the fairways out here because it isn't very easy to play from the rough and the bad spots on this course."
