Decades ago in a State Open. It's rather difficult.Has anyone golfed there?
I am watching it via streaming on Peacock channel. Such a hard course I love watching the best get challenged and not have the winner -15USA Network Live now. Golf course looks great. Would look even better w/ a few more trees, but I digress.

Rory off to a great start. Eric Cole off to a good start.
The leader is now at -4. To me thats somewhat surprising. Thought the course would be somewhat more difficult to score on.I am watching it via streaming on Peacock channel. Such a hard course I love watching the best get challenged and not have the winner -15
It's early. It won't surprise me if the winning score is worse that 4 under Sunday afternoon.The leader is now at -4. To me thats somewhat surprising. Thought the course would be somewhat more difficult to score on.
I played a round there during my time at PSU with the general counsel of Bayer - early summer 1996. Very humbling experience but I did birdie one par 3 - beautiful uphill, blind 5 wood that finished 4’ from the hole. Strange how I have forgotten the time spent in the church pews.Has anyone golfed there?
I was in Pittsburgh the last few days for work. Drove under the walkbridge yesterday afternoon and it was packed with fans.The most unusual characteristic of Oakmont. https://www.sbnation.com/golf/2016/...16-oakmont-country-club-highway-interstate-76
